Amazing atmospheric bass segment about halfway thru

I help out a exhibitor at Capital Audiofest and I always play certain digital tracks.  No. 1 on my list is Vivaldi Concerti pour Hautbois, Basson et Cordes with Alfredo Bernardini (Astree label)--I usually put on the 4th track which is a bassoon concerto.  

Someone above mentioned the Be Good Tanyas.  I also use one of their tracks off an album named Chinatown--"Waiting Around to Die" (a cover of a magnificent Townes Van Zandt song).

Another good demo track is the Natalie Merchant, Hazmat Modine, Fairfield Four performance of "Peppery Man."

For Jazz, I use Stefano Battaglia "Re Pasolini" album (either of the first two tracks), and Anour Brahem's "Thimar" album (jazz with an oud added to the mix). 

I mainly listen to vinyl so often find myself seeing how digital compares and what comes closest to vinyl.  I will be scanning the posts over the weekend when streaming and checking out some tracks

A dealer I met was obsessed with this song.  It is fun to listen to(a few times lol).  It didn't impress me much for trying to discern between speakers in the store.
