The Crusaders - Some People Just Never Learn (1988) [Bossa Nova]
Sung by the legendary Ivan Lins, who gives the track an unusual depth and poignancy despite the clinical production of the era. I love hearing that uneasy balance between the uber-produced synthetica that dominated music from 1985 onward and the wonderful imperfection that is a human voice...especially in a time before autotune was ever a thing.
