i notice that toward the end of the 70's early 80's keyboards/synths get incorporated into the sound and it has a different vibe.
Yes, and like in Western music that's exactly when it begins to suck.
ah, but in the instances i refer to, the production quality retains the same integrity (gritty and warm - definitly not cokey 80's shiny fizz) - but with analogue synths added to the instrument line up. Its been of a very moody vibe when ive come across it, otherwise i would have said AVOID!
