Pretty much every boogie funk song ever written.

Glen Campbell in the day was the epitome of square but insanely talented and this song is haunting. The most successfully Wrecking Crew solo artist.
Glen Campbell
Roy Clark
Fifth Dimension (esp covering Laura Nyro)
Any Burt Bacharach cover including Herb Alpert and Dionne Warwick
Any Mann/Weil Goffin/King cover
Anita Baker
early Vanessa Williams
Roberta Flack
Bing Crosby that does not have bad arrangements or bad background vocals

This one's for you, Dan. Deeep vibes on this mix that is waaaaay better than it should be.
Times are hard indeed. It is due time for the sixth installment of Universal Cave’s long running series Soft Rock for Hard Times. Here are two sides of smooth studio groovers and ambitious barroom movers. For all our sailboat dreamers, easy gliders & lizards on the deck, this ones for you. When times take a hard turn, take some time to take it easy.
