70's Funk sounded out the death knell for old school R&B/Soul, along with major artists having more musical expression than before. It replaced the dance styles along with the sound and converted many a soulie.
Following that, everything SATCHMO said.
I'm beginning to hear more and more old R&B creeping in, especially with some of the British artists.
In the recent past with Duffy and Winehouse and even more recently with various artists not usually noted for that old analogue sound.
I'll be definitely checking out those recommendations of yours SATCH.
