Good to hear others appreciate their music. The other thing I think is pretty kick ass about them is that some of them played instruments. They were an actual band. I forget which video of theirs I saw some time ago, but they had like eight keyboardists in a row--it was awesome. lol
JJ and Terry are AMAZING producers.

Nice thread. Man, I grew up on some SOS. That's barbecue music right there. thumbs up!
They came to Columbus several years ago and I got to see them. That show was just like a Frankie Beverly show: one big party.

I think Jam & Lewis' finest work wasn't with Janet or even with Cherrelle or Alexander O'Neal. For my money, there's nothing better in this world than the work they did with SOS Band in the early 80s. I love all that other stuff, too, but those beats and synth riffs were so fresh sounding then.

The 12 Inch dub versions of "Just Be Good To Me" and "Just The Way You Like It" are bad as hell too.

uhhh depends where you are from I guess. The group is from the UK. They didn't release it in South Africa due to political protest.
