Any one use reference CDs when mixing

As I'm still learning my mix techniques I like to A/B my mixes with other comercial stuff to check balance, bottom end and punch and stuff.

I find at the mo..I'm using some tracks from the massacre (50 cent) as it seems to have a full frequency range...and lots of puch..and I think is generally well mixed . In fact I'm finding a lot of Scott Storch stuff has a good mix sound that I aspire to.

Also for raw drum track stuff with 'da bounce' I like to A/B with some Timbo tracks.

Another favourite of mine is 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill' very fat drums on that.

Can you guys recomend any tracks that stand up well mix wise..and you use or are good for A/B'ing?
