The jump off would be Get Down on it by Kool in the Gang(I like that song)


The one to start the party would have to be "All Night Thing" by The Invisible Man's Band. biggrin

Now THAT'S what I'm talkin' about! nod

Side note: did you know that the Invisible Man's Band is none other than The Five Stairsteps?

The album that featured the super-raunchy Millie Jackson style we've all come to know and love...



...Caught Up was released in '75.


However she was far from a demure singer on her debut release...



...in '72, Millie Jackson

That's where the raps started with A Child Of God and a tune like Strange Things gave you a big clue as to what she had up her sleeve (or skirt if you will).


The Betty Davis album titled...



...Nasty Girl was also released in '75.
But Ms. Davis did the "nasty girl" thing out of the gate on her debut release in '73.

So although Betty (i.e. Ms.Davis) may have had the official title 1st, her vanishing act gave Millie the crown by default.

It's should be hers forever for this cover alone...



...Back to the Shit

What a woman!

Oh yes, another side of me. lol I'm glad to see you mentioned Bobby "Blue" Bland. I love it when he gets together with B.B. King. Don't forget the late Mr. Z.Z. Hill.

I'd want Ms. Millie Jackson to MC for the evening. She's definately a nasty girl. I'd like to see a little older, southern version of a nasty girl trio consisting of Millie Jackson, Denise LaSalle, and the late Ms. LaWanda Page (Aunt Esther)....I'd call them Millie 6. lol

I have never heard of Betty Davis until I joined the org. After reading about her on the org and hearing comments by orgers whose opinions I trust, I've definately got my eyes open for her in the record stores these days.

Now that's a great album. I have a CD that contains both albums, "Caught Up" and "Still Caught Up", on the same CD.

I picked this one up a few weeks ago:



It is a two CD set that contains her 1979 album "Live and Unscensored" and her 1982 album "Live and Outrageous". Millie is live, raunchy, and outrageous on these and talks plenty of cash shit. She definately proves she is the queen of the "rap". I enjoyed both CDs thoroughly from start to finish.

Great list Finess. Some of these songs, I have known and loved for years. Others on the list, I was just introduced to a few years ago by a friend of mine that loves music as much as I do. Others on the list, I haven't heard but, of course, I'm always looking for and exploring stuff I haven't heard before.

Think Andy is very capable 2 B his own DJ. But If I were a guest DJ I'd play him sumtin' like this:

Trouble - Andre Cymone
S-E-S-E-X - The girls


I DJ'd my own birthday party last year. lol

You definately score points for listing these two. Don't forget Andre's "So Fine".

Which guys? The Invisible Man's Band or The Five Stair Steps?
The Five Stair Steps' biggest hit was "Ooh Child." You might remember the song "All Night Thing" from '79 - by The Invisible Man's Band, who were really The Five Stair Steps.

There definately were some great album covers in the 1970s. I think Supernova was referring to that one particular cover that she didn't like because she loves the music of the 1970s.
