R&B has been around for over 50 years. When I think of "old school", I definitely don't think of anything from 1988-1994. Give me some Four Tops instead.

Pretty much what I said, so I agree At the very least the early 1980s when I was a small boy. For some old-old school.

More "before old school", as defined on this thread, R&B. This is more from my own childhood.
