Some of the musicians in Buena Vista Social Club were in their 70s and 80s when they recorded their only album.
Many of them were long retired by that point. And then they walked into a studio and casually made one of the most beloved albums ever

Worship drummers and bassists have insane chops. But nah I won't be listenin' to that.

Brandi Carlile's 'A War With Time' might be my all-time favorite song.
