GREAT albums paligap. You've reached my favorite era now and you get major points for remembering Ebonee Webb. Andy is a four letter word. | |

TP - Teddy Pendergrass 
A Little Spice - Loose Ends 
With Love - Fatback 
She's Strange - Cameo 
Born To Sing - En Vogue 
Fragile - Cherrelle 
The Glamorous Life - Sheila E. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Interesting "How To" found while trying to remember material from this time period... How to Be an 80s Funk Star? Long hair needs a quality Jeri curl for that sexy, spiraled look. Short hair needs to be straightened and styled with a debonair flair. Satin clothing is preferred in colors such as purple, red, black and white. High heeled boots will make your dancing and spinning on-stage easier. Long "pirate" coats and skinny pants will look nice against frilly high neck shirts. If you are a man, get yourself some hot chicks who can play drums or keyboards on-stage while wearing lingerie. If you are a woman, wear lots of trashy lingerie including mesh, lace, chiffon, fishnet stockings and garters. Be sure to spend plenty of time choreographing your performances. If your band can not dance, get a new band. Lace scarves worn around your head and over one eye will give you a mysterious look. Alternatively, this look can be achieved with black, tie-on Zorro masks. Fingerless lace gloves are always a perfect accessory for men and women. If you play guitar, have oddly shaped custom ones built! Accessories are critical. Think lavish and opulent. Brooches, pendants and gold chains are de rigeur. A cocky, sexy swagger will always help you win over the ladies. Black eyeliner and lip gloss will give your eyes definition and your lips an "oh-so-kissable" appeal. Be sure that you have at least one song with panting and moaning in the background. Remember, even if half of your music is about sex, it is God himself you have to thank for your musical gifts.  Wonder who they based this on?

Naw, although I could probably qualify for the "Using Up Too Much Bandwith" award(btw, I'm supposed to be workin'!)... ... " I've got six things on my mind --you're no longer one of them." - Paddy McAloon, Prefab Sprout | |

Wow, that's the damndest thing, Pali. I've been listening to a lot of late 70's-early 80's Soul/Funk too. I call it "Post-Disco".
I've especially been into the British stuff like Freeez, Level 42 (I know we're both fans of this awesome band), Central Line, Heatwave, Imagination, Beggar & Co., etc. Great stuff. NEW WAVE FOREVER: SLAVE TO THE WAVE FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE. | |

Is "Never Too Much" really from the 80's? [Edited 4/26/05 16:22pm] Check this song out at:
