Damn near any jazz artist would fulfill. They are not usually locked into some group with mediocre members from Bupkis, Iowa so the better ones are free indeed forced to play with those better than themselves. Sink (back into that weekend Holiday Inn gig) or swim ( with the better artists that swing through their area). So, but you want pop? Delbert McClinton got progressively better especially as a songwriter, and John Fogerty, once he got rid of the deadweight. Bonnie Raitt. Any others I could mention are mid-career and may slip back into the morass eventually. Hope spring eternal.
