Not sure if I posted this one - Covers of various Cash songs:

My LCD-2s arrive later this week and I can't wait to re-discover my collection, while posting in this thread.
The two CDs that I demo'd with the Rev. 2 sounded fantastic:
Bill Evans Trio - Sunday at the Village Vanguard
These sessions (along with Waltz For Debby) are bonafide jazz must-haves in my opinion. On the LCD-2s, I've never heard Scott LaFaro's bass sound so textured and alive -- and presented so much in the foreground. You really get a good sense of the interplay between him and Evans.
Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes
Indie folk with a uniquely pastoral sound, this band manages to be completely fresh while being completely familiar.

This is a pop cd that had lots of good bass and of course the artist is really great as well...
In particular the kick drum on track 10, Burnin Love is really a good demo for showing off how solid the low end can be and sounds with LCD2's.
The whole cd is a real treat to really listen to the bass sounds and all the neat things happening.
Its very much 3 dimensional to me and totally becomes overwhelming at times.

I've gone through a lot of music with the LCD-2 and while I can't chose a favorite this one should NOT be missed!
^ Not too shabby, Mr Bauer.

Yup, I mentioned this earlier in the thread. One of my all-time favorite albums!

In the same vein, I would strongly recommend her Live album (Live at the Loft)
.
and then there's here schizophrenic but dynamic songmaking on disc 1 vs. disc 2 of Elephants, which were among my most-played albums last year:
Great stuff! And with the LCD-2's you pick up a LOT of nuances that might otherwise be missed. A great LCD-2 listening experience...

Couldn't find any full CD's with Yamagata though.
