a pretty good recording, and a pretty good mastering job on SACD to beat out redbook with some of these "top tier" redbook players. Peter Gabriel's SACDs are not too disparate from his redbook remasters on the Meitner player. Something that probably isn't worth the cost of the purchase difference per CD vs SACD. Same with Diana Krall. I have not found her SACDs to be much better than redbook...I know that there are only two examples there, but I am betting that in your experience, you've come across some poor SACD implementations...
Finally, good sound at any event, be it acoustic or otherwise, is a happy rarity. Mostly, - venues suck for sound quality. It was a real eye opener to me to go to the SF Opera: the sound was worse than more than a few "Rock" shows that I've been to...
