Normally, I would say 10 years but giving the state of music today. I say anything that has people with REAL TALENT performing it, is Old School! | |

Anything before 1985. Andy is a four letter word. | |

Before '85? Bite your tongue!!! Just called me old...
I go with the real-instrumentation, real-vocalists definition but add the proviso that it must be played extremely well, well enough to influence others' style and development. Hence the frequent and credible referencing of the following artists (and others) as exemplary of "old school." Aretha Sly James Mick & the Stones John/Paul/George/Ringo Janis Teddy P. James Gladys Marvin Patsy Al Gamble & Huff Miles Hank Cash & The Carters Cream etc. [Edited 4/15/06 22:29pm] | |

For some people "old school" is almost anything that's no longer in current rotation.
BET's 106 & Park "Old School Joint Of The Day" used to crack me up. Sometimes they played 90s shit on there! | |
