The Drama According to Bernadette Cooper (Slept on Soul)

Whatever came out of my head during those sessions was what we did,” she says. “There were a lot of things that made the album and much that didn’t. I work best when I don’t have someone hovering over me, so what you hear on Drama is the sound of freedom.” A few of Cooper’s other collaborators on Drama included engineer Gerry Brown, an uncredited Lenny Kravitz as well as her good friends Teena Marie, Chuckii Booker, John Patitucci and Rob Bacon. Although Drama wasn’t Bacon’s first session, it was his first commercial release.

I hav the cd. I always liked "I Look Good," Stupid," "Howard Hughes Sitcom," "Strait Jacket (Love Affair)" and "Movie Produce Her" with Teena.

Awesome record. My favorite track is "The Underground". Too funky. Still have a girl crush on Bernadette because she's a bad chick that is loaded with "real" talent.

I like your articles. What did Lenny Kravitz ghost-play on? guitar
