But to say the 70s was without soul or emotion makes no sense. Disco came from soul music and had some great grooves during the 70s. Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder did stuff. And in another area like the singer-songwriter there was direct and affecting emotion. Many of the best ballads are from the 70s.
i was lucky to live in DC in the early 90s cause there was a great station called WHFS that played alot of stuff nobody else would like the judybats, swervedriver, the boo radleys, the posies, frente, the connells, the milltown brothers, the soup dragons etc.
the early 90s was a golden age
