BBR CD release of ANDRÉ CYMONE - A.C. (Expanded Edition)

Release date: August 29

His childhood friend and one-time bandmate PRINCE once described ANDRÉ CYMONE as “heaven sent”. Having grown up together and lived together, CYMONE played bass for PRINCE’s backing band in the days before it was called The Revolution.

By 1981, relations between PRINCE and CYMONE had broken down and he went solo, signing with Columbia Records and launching a career as a New Wave/Funk artist.

Originally released in 1985, A.C. was ANDRÉ CYMONE’s third and final solo album. It contains his biggest hit, the #10 R&B single THE DANCE ELECTRIC, written and produced by PRINCE, who had offered CYMONE the track when the two met in a nightclub.

Fans of both ANDRÉ CYMONE and PRINCE have been campaigning for decades to have A.C. released on CD. BBR is very proud to present the first ever CD issue of A.C. anywhere in the world, in full and expanded form, complete with extensive liner notes that feature interviews along with added bonus tracks.

Released in deluxe Super Jewel cases this BBR Remaster is a must have for all New Wave, Funk and Soul fans out there!

1. THE DANCE ELECTRIC
2. LIPSTICK LOVER
3. PRETTY WILD GIRL
4. BOOK OF LOVE
5. SATISFACTION
6. SWEET SENSUALITY
7. VACATION
8. NEON PUSSYCAT

BONUS TRACKS:

9. THE DANCE ELECTRIC (LONG VERSION)
10. LIPSTICK LOVER (CLUB MIX)
11. SATISFACTION (12" REMIX)
12. RED LIGHT
13. FALLIN' FALLIN'
14. THE DANCE ELECTRIC (SINGLE VERSION)
15. LIPSTICK LOVER (INSTRUMENTAL)
16. SATISFACTION (SINGLE VERSION)

What is the point of the "single" versions? They can't muster up any alternative material?

I guess "Red Light" and "Fallin Fallin" are the only non-album tracks that they could find?

The Dance Electric (Long version)????

Wasn't the long version (on the 12") the same as the album version?

there seems to be some confusion about that I don't recall ever hearing a longer version than what's on the album.

Some people like to have the 7"/single versions, I know I do

Where is the cd?

Actually the 12" ("Long Version") is shorter than the album version.

I believe it was only named the long version because it was more than the single 7" version.

Tha album is already available in some record store in France!!

Peace

PS>I don't have the Cd yet but i got the info from some1 who works for a record store!!

AC (with bonus tracks)

$13.99 ... CD

The best of a handful of albums that the one-time Prince bassist put out in the early-to-mid 80s – a record that made a splash via the great Prince-penned "The Dance Electric" – possibly a blessing and a curse for AC, as Prince was so huge at the time that the record going public was too quick to dismiss him as a clone! The percussive vibe is similar to Prince's, but Andre's got a leaner, funkier style overall – virtually working as a one man band here and it's a really impressive achievement that sounds great. A gem! Other tracks "Lipstick Lover", "Pretty Wild Lover", "Book Of Love", "Vacation", "Satisfaction" and "Neon Pussycat". This Big Break remastered edition has 5 bonus tracks: "Fallin' Fallin", "Red Light", "The Dance Electric (Single Version)", "Lipstick Lover (12" Club Version)" and "Satisfaction (12" Club Version)". © 1996-2011, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
