      There’s also been a clear break between musical tradition and popular music somewhere between 1930 and the 1960s

      And sure new music technology has brought on great new forms of musical expression, but now that these innovations have slowed to a crawl, it’s become clear how much musical knowledge and talent we’ve lost over the last half a century

      Search for Dave goodins deep soul treasures, dozens upon dozens of artists and singers who were absolutely world class talents, none of them ever got more than a demo or maybe a singular album released because the record labels quickly realized that there wasn’t a market for that music in the 70s. This has happened hundreds of times all over the world, and the talent and knowledge of those musicians died with them
