Came over a more seldom played recording of mine yesterday of Andreas Wollenweider - The Essential Andreas Wollenweider.

The interesting part is in the beginning of track 1 there's some girls giggling around the stage and at one point there's one girl besides each of your ears giggling away.

Nice effect.

Madonna - Immaculate Collection.

And I'm fairly sure some Jimi Hendrix stuff (by listening). But I could never really proove it.
There's at least one other, but I forgot which (Google will tell I guess).

Notice that it can be very tough to exploit this. Once I changed from a single main (stereo) amp to bi-amping, and it took me months to get it working again (sound should be up to completely behind you if all works well). I recall that proper interlinks did the job (btw Stax at the time).
Later I moved to a new house and there I have never managed to get it back. A little - and maybe up to just over 30 degrees (outside of the speakers) only.

All phase manipulation ...
(btw IIRC "invented" by Roger Waters himself)

Sting "The Soul Cages".

I last listened to this when my system was vinyl based, it went way beyond the speakers. Hmmm might get it again on CD just to give it a try.
