Here is another one a gentleman emailed to me. It has excellent if not exceptional dynamics, attack time, tonal quality, just a nice piece.

Here's a great blues guitar number, from a little known prog guitarist I like - Carl Hupp Project. He does a pretty good job on it. No video, just music.

Has anyone else watched videos/listened to music on Vimeo? The video quality tends to beat YouTube IMO.

I have not Mress. I also should have emphasized the music rather than the video since it was the music that I was most interested in. 

Here is another by Tommy Emmanuel. Sound stage is quite nice, open, and natural.

If you love solo violin and ambience, also testing the mids/highs.

I just found this somewhat unusual recording (at least for me) from the balcony of a very large venue. The sound stage is gigantic, ambience is amazing imo. Clapping almost covers the singing.
I like it for testing size of sound stage and ambient information.

Got another from an audiophile friend visiting. This one has very natural voices, seemingly one is right in the recording studio. Imo great rendition as well.

Another interesting selection for testing.

Two Cellos, Thunderstruck, is not only an interesting audio selection for tonal quality, but the video is pretty interesting and entertaining. The soundstage is not the largest at my venue though, but it might be larger in yours.

A truly natural sound of instruments. Nice ambience as well. Video is entertaining for its own sake.

Hairy Carrie Underweary and Keith Urban duet on 2017 Grammy Awards Show

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpdVc92rrjc

Two incredible singers, at their peak, singing a wholesome, well written song. Pop music is not dead.   But it is disguised with twang accent.

Check Urban guitar licks at the beginning. MF can play. And they both sing in tune, and she is a hot foxx. He wrote the song and made some big royalties singing it on TV. Love it!

I ran across this video today... it was featured on my favorite political blog. I was thoroughly enjoying the music when I realized my friend is playing in the band!
