It's a regional thing too.  I recently ran into a drummer friend who's 
spent the last 10 years in NYC.  We were talking about the difference in 
feel compared with New Orleans.  He said that he started having to do a 
lot fewer re-takes for NYC producers after he realized that they want 
everything to be ON the click as opposed to the rather laissez-faire 
sense of time that characterizes a lot of the music down here.
