Love over Gold is an analog recording and it has superb sound, although I like the music in Brothers in Arms a bit more ( the title track has a rather amazing guitar counterpoint to the words being sung, almost like a voice, IMHO).
The Private Investigations track in Love over Gold has superb sound effects and if you ever snag the 45rpm (British pressing, funny how 45rpm 12 inchers all seem to come from England) 12 inch single you'll find the sound absolutely stunning.
To the list I would add Cantate Domino, the classic Swedish Christmas album.
Also any number of Mercury Living Presence LP'S: the Eastman Wind Ensemble stuff an the LSO with Dorati. When listening to the Eastman remember they did not arrange the ensemble in the typical horseshoe shape, but in left right rows so often the solo parts are right behind each other.
I like various Pink Martini albums too: big band instrumentation but everything seems to be in correct phase to each other
Lots more but often only individual tracks
