I was listening to an 'oldies' station on XM radio in the car on a road trip this week and was enjoying an old Dusty Springfield number she sang back in the 70's when it occured to me why I was enjoying it enough continue listening to it and turn it up.
It wasn't so much her voice or any profound lyrics, it was the overall feel of the band as they played.
The good timekeeping that came from professional session musicians was a given, but the way the drummer and the band played cohesively yet loosely enough to allow the song to breath gave the singer a good foundation to build the message on top of was the best part.
Something rarely found in today's quantized track recording world. Okay It's dated, but I think you'll know what I'm referring to...
