Isn't 'Scarface' from 1980 or 81'... Blondie soundtrack etc... Are you talking about cocaine? I'm pretty sure that was happening in 60's 70's too, in fact good ole' Freud was heavily into "blow". ???

Anyway, it's not the gear, (excuse the pun), it's the sound in your head. Paint that and you will be able to give people "that feeling". Certain tools get you there faster but it has to be in you. In the 70's, the 70's were "in" most people. If you we're talented or clairvoyant enough to be ahead of your time then maybe the 80's and beyond were also in you too.
