Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan was soulful but never heard him referred to as the King of Soul. Did you hear that thing he did with Eddie Vedder?

Listening to her music over the past few days...

What if the great voices of today sung over music that tight? I guess kids need their EDM beat drops and bleeps and bloops feat. Lil Drugs, but I'd love to hear Ariana Grande sing with a session band.

Well I know she used the Swampers some as her session band, and maybe the Funk Brothers as well? So those are two legendary session bands to have. I don't know that anything even exists like that today.
