Very much agree on this as well.

I'm also a fan (and not the only one) of the raw energy of their album Homework.
But not an album I'd use for the intended use from this topic.
 
I have not owned a TT in years, nor albums. When I did I'd put on:

Heart's Little Queen and Dreamboat Annie
Pavarotti O Solo Mio, Nessun Dorma
1812 and the William Tell Overtures

If these could be dialed in I felt everything else sounded, sound.
 
DSOTM or Meddle
Crime of the Century - Supertramp
Dancing in the Dragons Jaws - Bruce Cockburn
 
A song by Flim & the BB's called "Funhouse". It has everything from a steam driven calliope to a door slamming shut. That sound purportedly puts out a 5 Hz tone (I've seen my subwoofer jump when it's played).
 
The very first one? Hot Rats by Frank Zappa, more precisely the title song. In my opinion, it's one of the most layered, intricate, and complex electric guitar performances ever played by the genius Eric Clapton called the best rock guitarist alive. Clapton said that after Hendrix's passing. Any component that can pick up the myriad of subtle sonic gems hidden within other melodic brilliancies and clearly render every detail is a keeper.

Zappa was way better than awesome!
