Best test tracks

[ozthepoz]

Spoons is fun, put it on via Spotify this morning and even then I could imagine doing some serious damage to my loudspeakers. Tempted to buy the CD
In a very similar note I always find Pendulum, "The Other Side" a bit of fun!

More seriously we always try to listen to tracks that we (1) really like (2) appear to be a good test and (3) seem to be quite well recorded.
But in terms of number (3) a number of ours are not that great.
Over time the audition list changes over time as our mood changes. But an example of stuff we keep going back to ...

Massive Attack: Angel, Teardrop
Chris Jones: Thank You
The Smiths: Please, please let me get what I want
Chase & Status: End Credits
Pendulum (as above)
Jeff Buckley: Hallelujah, Lover, You Should've come over
Scott Matthews: Elusive

Neil

For me it's;

Phil Collins - In the air tonight
Ane Brun - All my tears
Laurie Anderson - love among the sailors
Jim White - Still waters
Richard Buckner - Tether and the Tie\Mile

If anything makes these songs sound better, I'm buying it!!
