Me too!!!ford93 said:This is true talent from these guys this is just a few that we now know.
There's many out there that are still underground and have not had the chance of getting the props that they deserve.
Glad that I grew up living at the start of all this and to witness how far it has come.
From: Sugarhill Gang, Africa Bambaataa, Grandmaster Flash, DJ Kool Herc, The Winstons, Mantronix, Booker T. & MG's, Jimmy Castor Bunch, Incredible Bongo Band, Paul Hardcastle, James Brown etc...
Let's not forget "Rock Steady Crew" for their contribution in b-boying which helped in this movement
Oh and our beloved Boomboxes!
I agree with you SLO... "Never did I even imagine"SLO said:I love watching these guys cut it up on the turntables, so dope, especially at a old school hip hop concert, it's just amazing. Never did I even imagine that I would be collecting boomboxes from my past, yet alone have a whole new collection of OG cassette tapes, and vinyl. I got hooked. I'm proud to be part of the past AND part of the comeback!
I completely agree, the Ditch The Digital Brigade need to prepare for ex-digi enthusiasts creating a Grail List of much sought after albums - so get those albums while you still can!ford93 said:You never know though!
As more and more music lovers of all ages learn the acoustics of vinyl they'll appreciate it even more!
