First, thank The Lord there are people like Bytor in the world...
Secondly, I think there are a few post-'86 cds that instantly spring to mind that are impressively digitally (at least in part) produced. Tom Petty's 1994 solo album Wildflowers has some of the best digital production around, even though it's not particularily a great album, but just a good one. The production on Peter Gabriel's Passion: Music for the Last Temptation of Christ is done extremely well. Another, (that sounds as perfect as I can imagine it) is the Lou Reed/John Cale-Songs for 'Drella. The production on Siamese Dream is just about perfect for that album. In Utero sounds right most of the time. Sister was released within the last twenty years, in '87, of course, but it wasn't digitally produced. The tube-amp analog production on Sister rules!
