Gunsnhalen

I like his songs that were political yet still had that HMMMPH to it.

Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

All music is shit music and no music is real- gunsnhalen

My favorite Rick James album is Street Songs....the precursor to Prince's Purple Rain

I always viewed Rick as a uncle musically

but Dance Wit me is probably my favorite song by him biggrin biggrin

Theres two

I really like Give it to me baby - good lyrics and funky and plus he's playiong with his voice a bit.

Then theres "Cold Blooded" pure funk vocals and smoking hot rhythms, plus I love that whole "Who are you, can I get your name and number" hook.

Plus the "Sexy, sexy, sexy" line, just a cool song.

Mary Jane is up there too, I love the harmony and feel, not so crazy about the lyrics. When he was focussing Rick could give us some great jams, he had so much talent, but just wasted it. If he hadn't got into drugs, he would still be kicking Prince's ass royally even now.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name

"You And I" is is SO funky, once it kicks in past the slightly dated intro.. "Everybody shake your booty down!"

"I'm much too hot to be cool"

i would add to your list 'give it to me, baby' and 'super freak'. although both are played to death, i have sentimental attachments to them. very bittersweet memories.

All this time and no one has mentioned

SUPERFREAK biggrin Okay y'all I know it was the big hit, but its still a great song

and Loosey's Rap (Well I am not surprise)

The other missing song is Magic Moments, the video where he has the hideous Full Force style fade, not a half bad cover.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name
