Perfect answer, the early 90s kick started that decline

What you are calling R&B from pre-70s was pretty much just Soul imo.
90s rhythm and Blues was awesome?

The 60s-70s were golden era, how old are you?

The 90s were terrible for music what are you taking?The 80s were the last great era if you ask me

It was those people who broke that traditional boundary and set off a creative revolution who really opened up that artistic freedom for music ever since. How can anyone deny that artists like The Velvet Underground, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors and Led Zeppelin, just to name a few, didnt change things? They certainly did, and their music remains very unique and creative to this day. They continue to inspire and they always will. I dont think many bands will ever be able to match the influence that bands like that had on music.



My parents lived through the sixties as well, and they think that the music was highly revolutionary. The sixties were a wild time and that had its affect on the music.
You weren't even alive in the 60s, stop talking about this revolutionary nonsense as if you lived it
