Recommend best record in genre

[afora377]

I need one vinyl record from *each" of the genres listed below. I'm basically after a particular vinyl release with:

(i) the best acoustic quality involving the purest master not downsampled or remastered recording (if this is possible in principle) - this will also likely make most older records probably out of scope
(ii) a popular record or one that would be liked by most connoisseurs of the genre
(iii) LP is preferable
(iv) a not unreasonable price


Many thanks for your thoughts and time!

blues
jazz
acoustic
hip hop
rock
solo
electronic
symphony - orchestra
symphony - string(s)
symphony - piano

My acoustic standby is Michael Hedges "Aerial Boundaries" incredible sounding Windham Hill release

Blues for me would be Hooker 'N Heat with John Lee Hooker and Canned Heat joining forces. Nice mix of ballads and full blown boogie. The sound quality on this 2 LP Capitol offering from 1971 is a joy to listen to. Harp player Blind Owl Wilson found magic with Hooker on this session. Wilson died shortly after this LP was recorded. If you can find any Ronnie Earl on vinyl, he always has great sounding material.

Thanks, i'm after particular vinyl releases, not just a music recording. I updated the title now.
