Compression Comparison: Squashed Sound?

Would somebody be a pal and upload a few short selections of audio (preferably one instrument at a time ie;drums/vocals/bass) uploading one super squashed version with the "life taken out of it" and one with its dynamics and transients preserved?

For those of us who don't really know yet what this really sounds like, I think an A/B will quickly help train our ears for what to listen for.. It's never really been obvious to me so I think I need some help.

I'd do this myself but I dont know a good dynamic take when I hear it! I also don't know the proper settings on the compressor to kill a take!

Thank you.
