Steely Dan's 'Everything Must Go' and 'Two Against Nature' These are produced for CD not vinyl masters that have been transferred over. I find the material very good for referencing many different speakers in a studio situation and it seems to be good with many genres as well.

It is also a mighty fine standard for FOH live PA stuff too.

Perfect mixes, great vocals, keys and guitars and drums etc, everything. Tight kick. Perfect for testing studio monitor woofers and subs live. Plenty of space too to hear any room sounds that might be going on. Not mastered heavily either, to about a K-11 reference which although is reasonably loud still has nice transients and kicks you hard at times. Fantastic overall speaker test.

Mighty fine band with beautiful and amazing songs too. This is a harmony and melody lesson as well folks. How and when to use great harmonic and melodic concepts.

+1 on Steely Dan.

It depends on the musical style. 

Thomas Dolby, "Aliens Ate My Buick" 
Sting, "10 Summoners Tales"
Rush, "Power Windows"
Porcupine Tree, "In Absentia"
Toto, "Kingdom of Desire"

srtickman - love this album - it's one of those that never seems to get old

Carlos Santana - Supernatural Dr Dre - Chronic 2001

I use Two against nature and 10 Sumners tales as well.

I was just using a series of CDs from different eras as a means of tweaking my sub-woofer position and volume and I was amazed just how much bottom end varies over the years.

I found that The Alan Parsons Project "Eye In the Sky" is a very balanced CD. 

This one mostly.

A good modern sounding well mixed album a wide range of song types from acoustic predominately vocal tracks to full blown accompinaments, a little bit of everything here.

More importantly I've been using it so long I'm familiar with just about every nut and bolt on it in a wide range of settings.

Yes? No? Maybe?
