Brownmark "just like that" WOW. I still love the pop song "next time". Easily the poppiest off his first album. Easily the strongest single too. Was it a hit?
Even oliver leibar does a cranked up guitar solo. I also like the clattery "i cant get enough of your love" (with the andre cymone drums) and "she dont care" "Put a smile on your face" is cool aswell. But honestly "next time" is one of my all time fav tracks ever. "next time baby, i want u to dance with me". That song has 2 great hooks. | |

I used to really like "Put A Smile On Your Face". Next Time was cool, too. I remember the video with the Wendy-lookin' female bass player. Mark is extremely talented.
Oliver Leiber did some good work on Paula Abdul's tracks, too. [Edited 8/23/05 10:42am] | |

He does a couple of pop swingers on that one (with common contributor st paul) | |

The entire 'Just Like That' album has some serious pop hooks. Brownmark really knew how to write a catchy melody back then. The tracks he did for Chico DeBarge around the same time were just as good. | |

Yeah, that is a cool cut. I like the album as well. I would have liked to have seen Mark do more solo shit. He produced some very cool things with Lakeside. Mark, in my opinion, was Prince's best bassist. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

I didn't know Brown Mark had another album besides "Good Feeling". I've got something else to look for now. Wait a minute, thesexofit.....this album doesn't sound like new jack does it?  Andy is a four letter word. | |

Nah, it ain't newjack. Its more clattery rnb/pop then newjack. Like andre symones stuff with jody watley a bit. I got his second album, which is closer to newjack then "just like that" I would say. | |

The BOMB cut was "I used to be so in love"...real nice. BrownM did a 3rd CD I think it's only available on the net though. "But what of black women? . . . I most sincerely doubt if any other race of women could have brought its fineness up through so devilish a fire." -- W.E.B. Du Bois -- | |

I'm surprised you didn't know that because 'Just Like That' was more successful. The single "Next Time" made the R&B top 60 I believe. | |

what was cool was when Mark held to bass duties for a Stevie special for the "Characters" album w/Stevie on Keys,Mark on bass and Stevie ray Vaughan on guitar .....I believe | |

Radio stations in my area didn't play any Brown Mark back in the day. They were too busy wearing Whitney Houston out to play anything else. I just happened to be browsing one day in the record store and came across "Good Feeling". I had always assumed it was his only album.

It is actually listed as a the group "Cryptic" and the album title is "It's been a while". I have not listend to it for a while, but I remember not being impressed the first time I heard it. I will have to pull it out and listen again. The members of Cryptic are: BROWNMARK: Bass and lead vocals CHASE: Guitar CHRIS BOONE: Lead and background vocals SENSWAL: Keyboards, background vocals, rap CHRIS LAKEY: Drums J. HUB: Bass, vocals (I think this is the same guy who originally replaced Terry Lewis on bass in the Time). "Always blessings, never losses......"
Ya te dije....no manches guey!!!!!  I'm a guy!!!!

As soon as I get a chance I will check if it is still a valid site. "Always blessings, never losses......"

I looked up Brownmark on the charts and the single "Next Time" went to #48 on the U.S. R&B chart back in 1988. It's Brownmark's only solo appearance on any Billboard chart. That's a better showing than Bobby Z, but not as good as Wendy and Lisa. | |
