Air - Moon Safari
Beck - Odelay (and anything else really)
The Delgados - The Great Eastern
PJ Harvey - Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea
The Jesus and Mary Chain - Honey's Dead / Stoned & Dethroned
Massive Attack - Blue Lines / Protection
My Bloody Valentine - Loveless
Nirvana - Unplugged
Beth Orton - Trailer Park / Central Reservation
Portishead - Dummy
Primal Scream - Screamadelica
Radiohead - The Bends / OK Computer
Ride - Nowhere / Going Blank Again
Suede - Suede / Dog Man Star

Not sure if all of the original recordings would make an SACD release worthwhile though...

There are tons of well recorded pop music that benefits hugely from high resolution. Who decided that a well made multi-tracked 24/96 studio recording is any less sophisticated/demanding than a purely acoustic one? A classical SACD benefits from the better reproduction of an actual room/concert hall.But that's just one of many aspects of sound quality that dsd and hi-rez pcm improves.
In Pop music high-rez gives you better timing and intensity.And it gets more dynamic, more alive, and the multilayered instruments sound bigger, richer.

Cardigans: Long Gone Before Daylight has been released on SACD. It, like several popular titles had a limited production run. It just goes to show that popularity of some of these titles was under-estimated. I have this particular title and it's exceptional in all aspects.

Not only is it the best Cardigans album, the production is fantastic, too. I wish I had bought it. Guess it's time to turn to the second hand market.

If the SACD was a European import, here's the link you're all looking for. Several copies starting at less than $5 US. It states Super Audio CD in the middle of the page.

http://www.amazon.com/Long-Gone-Before-Daylight-Cardigans/dp/B00008LPGY/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1200332024&sr=8-2

Unfortunately, I'm only familiar with "Love Fool"

Great choices from those who are responding. I forgot to include Sade's "Love Deluxe" on my list.

Cheers,

Dan

Universal's site says that this version (EAN 0044006710129) is a CD.
