I think music staring going downhill when music was no longer an audio only thing. Once bands were expected to make videos, posters, and "act" on stage, suddenly a lot of musicians had problems getting into the business. They want to make music, not become pseudo-actors.
So you're saying that.... video killed the radio star..?
We can rewind though right?
Sorry, gone too far
And even before MTV, there were these bands. So called “performers” even. It’s almost as if they performed some kind of act to entertain an audience.
Yeah, but they were just a bunch of Monkees
