Hell I even love Chicago, Phil Collins and Lou Bega for their horn sections. Lol
I mean, take The Fatback Band, even, horns galore in 1975... by 1985, not a horn in earshot. Oh why? And as for today's R&B, I think I judge it most the time on whether it's real-sounding, and whether it has horns!!
Well I guess I have come across as slightly obsessed with horns here... heehee :D
