The late 80's was probably one of the best era's of music because technology had improved, but not to the point they made it all with 'samples' like they did in the late 90's and later. Imperfection or improvisation made a unique sound.
Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

Well, to each his own. Thats what I like least. I have particular scorn for old-school drum machines. They sound too fake and irritating. Bruce Springsteen songs are major offenders. A lot of the pop music sounds half-assed or incomplete. Plus, thats the beginning of the end. A lot of drummers and guitarists lost work because of that and it opened the doors for lazy musicianship. Drum machines were the worst thing to happen to popular music.audiophile wrote: ↑Tue Apr 30, 2019 8:12 amThe late 80's was probably one of the best era's of music because technology had improved, but not to the point they made it all with 'samples' like they did in the late 90's and later.
