Gee Matt how can I get back on the right track

[@tidefanyankee2428]

I agree Matt. I've introduced my nieces and nephews to 80's music and they love it. Oh, and the artists back then didn't have "auto-tune". My niece asked for an example and I played Boston's "More than a feel'in" and she couldn't believe it.

[@iwasneverhere9189]

There were so many Genres. It was a mixup mash up. Record companies would through it all on the wall and see what would stick.

[@gmartinz01]

I'd have to go with the 60s. Radio programmers had no idea what the public wanted and on AM music radio you could hear a dozen genres in one hour.

[@robertpoudrette4483]

It's just a matter of "been there, done that"! I'm wondering how people still come up with new stuff nowadays. No, it's not all good in MY opinion, but there still is new stuff coming out. A bit more few and farther between, but you also have to consider the last two years were difficult for everybody including music artists. The fact that you put three notes together and make money out of that makes you also a target for everybody and his uncle to sue for plagiarism too. Another thing... Since less and less people are actually buying or want to buy music doesn't help. I was there in the 80's as well and I consider myelf lucky there are still people who get their guitar out to work on new stuff. I still buy and download my music.
