Here is a pretty good violin solo. Really articulate.

A little Vic Damone, in a pretty nice recording. What a voice.

Alison Krauss + Union Station featuring Jerry Douglas

Taped 2/19/2003, exactly 15 years ago tomorrow. Incredible audio and video production, the music speaks for itself, if you like pop/bluegrass.

If we had a little more new music like this, audio hobby would be in a much healthier state.

Great players, transparent production and very interesting compositions:

https://www.amazon.com/Innovators-Sam-Cardon/dp/B00004HYNO

Or anything by these guys.

The mixing techniques used are impeccable.  They have several subsequent releases, but this is the one that hooked me. As a drummer, Harvey Mason, Dave Weckl and Simon Philips define the art for me.

Here they are live:   https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=F6T2F-jTuCQ

Enjoy.

As a drummer,

Ok, now that explains everything...

Haha

You know about Lester Young, the drummer, right?

Here is a great test for low frequencies, openness, naturalness; the gent walking out to, starting the motorcycle, and driving off. How good is your low frequency reproduction? Adjust your speaker placement for optimal low frequency clarity, flatness of response verses the mids, highs, the sound stage etc.

Here is an incredible percussion "lesson". The naturalness and dynamics are simply extra ordinary. True reference. Only wish was that there was more top hat. This one is truly worthy of being in your favorites.

I believe there is also a lesson two, just as good.

Another incredible selection that is almost beyond belief. Minimalist recording, so natural, all the nuisances.

Nice melody and rhythm Rich. 

Here is Toccata and fugue in d minor Bach Sofia Kiprskaya Harp. Nice to hear not always in the spotlight instruments in all their glory. What a beautiful sound.
