Oh, the horror!

The Cowboy Junkies on either the Trinity Sessions or Lay It Down album have some a few songs with really low notes.

Sorry I can't be more specific about which songs but it's been a while since I've listened to these CD's and my memory isn;t what it used to be.

Eaasssy on the Canajuns, there, Peter!! Tee hee!

Thanks for all the suggestions so far.

I'm thinking it may be fun to go and buy an actual pipe organ cd. Give me a good excuse to put the port plug back in the Hsu and see how much of my "popcorn" acoustic ceiling I can shake loose.

I always throw this one out when I see posts similar to this...in fact, I include it on my demo disc that I take around when auditioning speakers. The band is called The Books. The second song, "Read, Eat, Sleep", on this album has notes that start right at the :52 second mark...I don't know what "instrument" (it may be digital) created them, but they do the same thing you speak of...lots of movement from the drivers of some speakers, but no sound. But then, you play it with a sub and it's a nice chest massage.

"The Books"
They are on my list of cds to purchase. Read about bands on the net and if they look good I add them to my growing "Sticky." If not a Mac user, it's like an electronic post-it. Cuts down on the scrap pieces of paper my desk seems to accumulate.

Thanks, csmith.

Anything by Sting, basically. I would avoid the latest album unless you enjoy poorly mastered overly hot stuff, though. Good songs, but geez...

On the first Nelly Furtado CD there is a song that goes really low too, it is audible though. Can't remember the song, I gave the CD away. I think I put it on my computer gotta make a copy of it, it was really a good CD.

Sarah McLaughlin has some outstanding bass to go with her outstanding voice.

I always like Basement Jax for some great LF. Great beats and plenty of riddym too.
