I have a cluster: Porcupine Tree and No-Man. Fantastic music, incredible technique and care for details. Recordings are beautifully made and hi resolution versions of many records are available (and worth it).

Lou Reed: Berlin Live at St. Ann's Warehouse. A kinder take on the story and it's characters. Not as good as the original, but still fantastic.
