    Al De Miola is a little to technically "perfect" for me, but yes, that would do it.

    The Beatles loved to play with stereo as well. The double LP The Beatles, aka The White Album, was released in mono and stereo versions and they were different. On other stuff they played with having very seperate vocals and guitars etc.

    Pretty sure Windsock's got it with "On The Run", it has footsteps at the start and the end leading into "Time" which is another good work out for both speakers and if you have a Sub in the system will give that some work too.

    'Sorrow' in also another fav of mine from Pink Floyd that will give the Sub a work out.

    My wife got me one of those Aldi turntables for Christmas. Finally I had a reason to dig out my collection of Pick Floyd LPs and put them to some use after gathering dust in a closet for a few decades. Now when I’m working from home I often choose to pop one of those LPs on over listening to Spotify. It’s just something about a crackly Pink Floyd song that reminds me of being a teenager again…

    Gee, having to listen to Pink Floyd songs to find the right track - I suppose someone has to do it! I am working remotely from home and have a lot of administration and data entry to do to update the system today. At least I will have a good sound-scape happening to help me with the mind-numbing data entry. I have been doing it since last Wednesday - sigh!

    Kind regards

    You could also try Hawkwind's "Master of the Universe", from the album of the same name.
    There's a good stereo' section about two thirds of the way through.

    That brings back memories I remember seeing them live at Harlow in the UK, must have been in the late 70's.

    Not exactly music, but if you really want to test out the stereo effects of your system, especially using headphones, try this -

    I was in The UK in '96 and had a ticket to a concert. Stupidly, I stuffed up the train I was supposed to get and missed out.

    I've got about a dozen albums.
