Name 3 songs where audio quality and song quality completely align


Lately I’ve found myself alternating between music I love (but sounds mediocre) and music I don’t know well or only like (but sounds incredible).

Occasionally, I stumble across a track where the song could both serve as a great show off piece for my gear and I love the music.

If you can, name up to 3 songs where the audio and song quality take you over the moon with pleasure.

Too many.  I have a large music library, listen to all genres,  and a pretty good setup to listen.  I’d estimate approximately 40%  of all things I listen to check all the boxes ie very satisfying in both regards.  Cut out pop music genre and the number jumps greatly.   Life is good!

Jimi Hendrix Band of Gypsies, Rainy Day

Go Back Home, Stephen Stills

Cowboy Movie, David Crosby

 

Too many to rank, but it’s fun to search for hidden gems amongst other’s choices. Here’s a few "perfect" songs with great audio...

Too Much Rope - Roger Waters

Your Own Sweet Way - Notting Hillbillies

Brother Where You Bound - Supertramp

Dark Eyed Cajun Woman - Doobie Brothers

It’ll Shine When It Shines -Ozark Mountain Daredevils

Madman Across The Water -Elton John (why does Yellow Brick sound so terrible compared to this? Mystery.)

 

Si tu me laisses - Nicolas Michaux

Booth Love - Umphrey's McGee

Mumbo Jumbo - Brent Lewis 

All I'm going to say is that people like you are the reason audiophiles get stereotyped as being all about the equipment.  Stop purchasing audiophile rated music and buy what you like.  You're saying that you can't do that?  Sheesh!
