I am not so sure that just lofi groups make albums that way anymore and I don't think the big corporate (overused term) record companies have a lot of say or control over the artist these days...there's too much competiton and too many bands !They have no choice but to let the music speak for itself!!!! Who as an executive in a record company would even attempt to change the music of say - Adele ?
All boy band control or all girl band control perhaps but not control over talented and creative artists...I don't buy it !!! I'll use Pink Floyd again as an example....EMI had diddly squat influence or say on what they recorded and released !!!!

Jerome Wrote:Think it means music that was made with whatever equipment was available. i.e. no access to high-tech studios etc. etc. Some of the best albums were made this way. Jackson Browne's 'Running on Empty' springs to mind, some of which was recorded on a bus and various Holiday Inn hotel rooms around the States. Fantastic album too.
The ultimate connection is between a performer and its' audience!
