Deep Listening means taking familiar music out of the background and putting it up front and finding its strength again. Yes, this is commercial pop music, you can't get much more commercial. But if you have only heard this stuff through compilations or dinosaur radio stations, you probably are unaware of the power of the original records. So here they are. Hear how they sound today. I think they sound better than ever.
