Etta James and Chet baker, man those are great recordings as is the Heifitz. I had the unique pleasure of hearing my wifes quartet being coached by Josef Gingold at Meadowmount in 1988 on the Barber, I was reduced to tears as this quiet man found more passion in 12 bars(leading up to the climax)than most musicians find in a lifetime of searching. Pink Floyd's "The Wall" is an exquisite piece of music, there isn't a measure in it that doesn't touch me. My hands-down favorite is anything off Peter Gabriel's "Paranoid" (Shock the Monkey) album. Buy it, Wade, or I'll send you a copy, you will cry like you have never cried before. Perhaps the most heartfelt music written in the past 30 years. Man, it was great to reflect on those tunes. Thanks man.
