Unfortunately, Yes. On Motown, I believe, "Saga of a Man" or some such non-sense, with no involvement from the Prince camp (i.e., no BrownMark) and a different lead singer?

I've heard it, it's mostly just short of dismil, I'd forget you know it exists if I were you.

I have it. It's not as bad as everyone makes it out to be, there are some good tracks on there. It's just not as good as the first album.

The best cut on there is Saga of a Man. It was never released to my knowledge. Columbia refused to release it and I don't quite know why, just the lead single "Saga of a Man" was released.

The second Mazarati album was released on Motown in limited quantities.

Thinking back, you're right. It was Motown and it was in limited release. I don't know why I thought it was Columbia but now I remember it was in fact Motown. Thanks for the correction.

Same lead singer as the first album. And I believe the version of "Don't Leave Me Baby" is the same as the Brownmark one released on the b-side of the "100 MPH" single.

I know Klymaxx's Bernadette Cooper did some production for this album also..

I had this on vinyl and sold it for £285!

"Don't Leave Me Baby" is a remixed version of the original. And half of the album is produced by Brown Mark.

The most notable thing about the album is that the pictures of the band on the back illustrate how the band decided to get rid of their ladyboy chic look.

Don't leave me, baby is the best track. Great bass. The song saga of man is crap, fresh out the ass.

A couple of the songs are OK, but nothing on it compares to the first album, which, incidently is one of my all time fav's. dancing jig

Suzie, Strawberry Lover, I Guess It's All Over, She's Just That Kind Of Lady are genius, and the rest is pretty shit hot too.

Terrible track order though. confused
