In the movie "Monterey Pop", Janis Joplin -- largely unknown at the time -- sings a killer version of "Ball and Chain". At one point, the camera cuts to Cass Elliot in the audience, who is staring, with her mouth open, and then she just says, "Wow".

Music used to grab people and shake people. Today, as you say, having people stop and listen is NOT what it's all about.

Haven’t seen Mama Cass yet, if this is it, but I can tell you that at 1:14 she’s so into it that she’s kicking her shoes off.
