Jody Watley - Still a Thrill Was listening to "Still a Thrill" yesterday and nearly 20 years on I still love the track and the way that Andre Cymone produced one of the most Prince soundalikes ever, Jody sounds so sexy on it and when I first heard it couldnt believe this was the same woman that was in Shalamar. | |

Some of the funkiest guitar playing to come out of MN is on that record.
Why is it people think of Andre as Prince-ish when the MN sound was Prince AND Andre from the beginning? Andre was on Prince's initial recordings. People still trying to cut him out of the picture. | |

Yep you're totally right and it wasnt my intention to sound like i was, was just remarking on how Prince sounding (mid 80s era) that track was. Andre clearly showed his production muscles on that album! | |

so is that andre playing the chicken scratch guitar on that song? It sounds a lot like Prince...I guess their styles were similar... The Org is the short yellow bus of the Prince Internet fan community. | |

My fav song of Jody's as well. Prince had nothing to do with it. Props to Andre! | |

It's an AWESOME tune. By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory! | |

I always thought her jam "Love Injection" was her best cut. Extremely funky! I will do today what you won't, so tomorrow I can do what you can't. | |
