What ever happened the Andre Cymone?

Just wondering if any one had news. I know he married Jody and they had a son. But other then that the net has nothing. He was cute wasn't he.

He and Jody divorced sometime in the 90s. I use to see them and their kids coming through the Minneapolis airport.

Andre Cymone was very cute:) I think he had a Cd that was released last year or earlier this year.

That's probably wrong. Even his wikipedia page only shows his three albums from the 80's:
* Livin' in the New Wave (1982), Columbia
* Survivin' in the 80's (1983), Columbia
* AC (1985), Columbia

He was name checked in a song by The Hold Steady, called "The Swish":
pills and powders baby. powders and pills. we spent the night last night in beverly hills. there was this chick that looked like beverly sills. we got killed. tights and skirts baby. skirts and tights. we used to shake it up in shaker heights. there was this chick she looked like patty smythe. she seemed seemed shaky but nice.

she said my name is rick danko but people call me one-hour photo. i've got some hazardous chemicals. drive around to the window. she said my name is robbie robertson but people call me robo. i blew red white and blue right into a tissue. i came right over the counter just to kiss you.

ginger and jack and four or five feminax. psycho eyes and a stovepipe hat. a ray of light in white rayon slacks. we got cracked. shoes and socks baby. socks and shoes. we spent the night last night in newport news. this chick she looked just like elizabeth shue. we got bruised.

she said my name is steve perry but people call me circuit city. i'm so well connected. my upc is dialed into the system. she said my name's neil schon but some people call me nina simone. some people call me andre cymone. i've survived the 80s one time already. and i don't recall them all that fondly.

it was a blockbuster summer. moving pictures helped us get through to september. they made a movie about me and you. it was half nude and half true. it was a bloodsucking summer. i spent half the time trying to get paid from our savior. swishing though the city center. i did a couple favors for some guys who looked like tuscan raiders.

None of his albums are on CD and it is a shame - especially when you look at the crap from that same era that did get to CD. There must be some business issues preventing it. Someone could double up the albums in one of those economy packs if they think it wouldnt sell. If Pepe Willie can dig up and actually release some old moldy reel to reel tapes of Prince breaking wind in the next room when he was 15, someone ought to be able to release 3 solid new wave Mpls funk classics from Columbia Records.
