I'm generally a skeptic when it comes to hearing this sort of thing, and my 52 year old ears roll off like a stone off a cliff at 14.5khz. But...

I've been recording some old LPs to CD and noticed that the character of some awful clicking/rattling maracas (or something) on a 1959 Enoch Light demo album (Provocative Percussion) wasn't quite right. I changed the sampling from 44.1 to 96khz and the problem went away. Looking at the digitized waveforms, it's pretty obvious that the higher and lower rate waveforms simply aren't the same. I admit it's subtle, but that's not the same as non-existent.
