My apologies. I completely forgot to add what it was I was listening too. It was the above selection. Again, my bad sir.
The physical music from Telarc trumps what I hear on streaming.

Haha...no problem, mi amigo! Glad we are sorted now, and I will be giving that music a listen!"This may not matter to you, but it does to me for various reasons, many of them illogical or irrational, but the vinyl hobby is not really logical or rational..." - member on Vinyl Engine

After they swim in the Seine you will probably be exercising your rig to the sounds of the Olympic Requiem Mass.

I haven't found anything with more Dynamics than some of the Telarc recordings. They do seem to be lacking in Dynamics on the streaming services compared with their physical counterparts.

On Trey's system BITD? That was experienced on physical music. He could tell you the system (or upstream gear) at the time.
I believe it was on Odyssey gear. Maybe a Symphonic CDP and Tri-Vista gear???
Lawd, that was a long time ago...

This one is worth checking out.
Enjoying the journey while never attaining the destination. -
Blu-Ray audio version of “stop making sense” by the talking heads has fantastic dynamics.
Plus, you get to watch the concert. -

I have an audiophile version of that one and you are correct. Very demanding and dynamic. Great recording to boot. Nice recommendation for this thread!

This is where I have that recording. I have not heard the CD or streaming versions yet but the Burmester CD is exceptional. It's long OOP though and usually expensive when and if they even show up on the used market.

I got this one for Christmas from my son. I’ve always like Yellow, and I was unaware they had new-ish stuff out in the 2000’s
This one is spectacular. Musically it may not be for everyone, but if you like exceptional recording, DEEP bass (musical bass, not techno bass or canon shots on 1812) and fresh sounds, this thing is a treat for the ears - and it will really stretch your system’s legs. So far track 9 is my favorite, and has already earned a place on my top 6 reference tracks.

I discovered YELLO this year too.
I've bought more than a few of their CDs after I heard the first one. Some songs are musical experiences to wonder at.
Listen to POCKET UNIVERSE on a quiet, calm, warm night in a barely lit room.
I posted a link to the whole album here on this forum a few months ago. I was blown away listening through my Polk Audio SDA-SRS2s. 
Here it is again.

I was reading a review of a pair of amps I think it was the other day, maybe speakers, and their cost...100,000.00 a pair. What did the reviewer try as one of the sample songs?, YELLO's "ELECTRIFIED". He loved it!

Yellow - Touch should be in everyone's musical library. It gets regular rotation here often. Fantastic album and fantastic recording. This type of album fits perfectly with this thread.

Tom, it's Yello
Happy New Year.
I'll add that everyone should have some Yello for demo material. I've had One Second on CD since the early 90s and play it every so often. I think I need to add some newer stuff...off to ebay. -
This set is spectacular.

Thank you to all for the YELLO information. Good stuff for sure. Happy New Year!

Which recordings from DG are those? HerbieThis set is spectacular.
did (at least) two of the complete cycle. I have the early collection (on rekkids) which I quite like -- from the early/mid 1960s, IIRC
(rando internet image, but this is the set of which I speak)
The later cycle, again IIRC, was recorded maybe in the late 1970s, and perhaps digitally(??).
-
@mhardy6647 The ones from the 1960's.
Just replayed the Pastoral last night from them. Marvelous. -
Thank you to all for the YELLO information. Good stuff for sure. Happy New Year!
Yello have been around a long time, and this may sound familiar from 40 years ago...
