For middle of the road rock/pop with great drums and bass, Living Color always comes to mind for me. Listen to that song Cult of Personality. The darned thing sounds exactly the same everywhere you play it...even on lappy speakers. LOL! I'm not a fan of the lead guitars, but the bass, drums and Glover's vocals are just off the hook.
I've commented on this selection when you've made it in the past.
I swear when I listen to it loud ... which is basically the only way I listen to it ... I hear the music ducking the snare. Am I hallucinating?
