I've heard plenty.  Not to mention CD's that have loudness issues and bad DR.  I have the High-Res HDTracks Cat Stevens "Tea for the Tillerman" that just kills everything I own.  I also have a vinyl rip of Classic Records Allman Brothers Fillmore East that is better than all my other versions including MFSL Gold Disc and 24/96 file.

i've never heard a hi res and bit depth vinyl rip that  sounds as good as a lossless cd rip

I personally and respectfully disagree. Last weekend I had a Fleetwood Mac session playing my Rumours remastered CD and also the hi-res version I got from HDtracks. IMO the level of detail and the soundstage presentation of the hi-res version is clearly better.
 

i felt the opposite.  i have both versions.  i felt the 16/44 newly remastered cd rip to flac sounded more dynamic and more clear than the 24/96 from hd tracks

I agree with you. I also have "Tee For The Tillerman" form HDTracks and a remastered version in CD and IMO the HDTracks sounds better.

I do have a vinyl rip 24/96 of the 45rpm Rumours and it sounds incredible.  I don't have the HDTracks version.

Just to throw my two cents in, I thinking mastering matters more than the format.  I would take a well mastered CD over a poorly mastered 32/192k stream any day.

Does this mean we can continue debating who the best drummer in the world is on the LF thread?

Tea for the Tillerman, originally mastered on early Magnepans.

Deaf Percussionist Evelyn Glennie

Glennie has been profoundly deaf since age 12. This does not inhibit her ability to perform at the international level. She regularly plays barefoot during both live performances and studio recordings in order to "feel" the music better.^[3]

Glennie contends that deafness is largely misunderstood by the public. She claims to have taught herself to hear with parts of her body other than her ears. In response to criticism from the media, Glennie published Hearing Essay in which she personally discusses her condition.

What debate?   No one in the LF thread ever mentioned any of the great Jazz drummers all of which could school (and some actually did) the ones mentioned in that thread.

Max Roach
Jack DeJohnette
Tony Williams
Billy Cobham
Art Blakey
Jeff "Tain" Watts
Philly Joe Jones

At least Rumors approaches the 40 minute mark coming in at 39:03. I'm waiting to buy "The Shadow Of Your Smile" (Astrud Gilberto) 2 x 45rpm and it only comes in at 25 minutes total. 

 Unless I rip the vinyl to disk, I'll be up and down like Jack-in-the-box!
