GAP BAND IV

For those of you who don't own this, you're missing out.. There's more to the GAP Band than "Dropped a BOmb" and "Early in the Morning" this cd is classic R&B.

Kid Rock does a cover of "Outstanding" on his new Live Trucker cd. It's not too bad. If anyone has the tab for that bass line, let me know, I cant figure it out!

Great album from start to finish. The album versions pale in comparison to the 12 Inches from that album though.

I like this album a lot, yet I really feel that it is anchored by its singles a little too much.

I always thought Jam and Lewis stole from the Gap Band on Cherelle's "You Look Good To Me" The music sounds alot like "Early in the Morning" to me, but I love both songs, so it's cool..



(The intro to cherelle's song was also right from Steely Dan's "FM" too!)

Love the GAP and Charlie as a solo act as well.

But wait: what's that slow jam where somebody's singing;

"...keep ruunin' (you keep on run-nin' in and out of of my li-i-ife)..." ???


I have that somewhere on a quiet storm compilation I made to sleep to cool


...good grief, I LOVE these threads; they always remind me of what I need to add to my lil' collection...

"...my heart...is BUUR-ning for ya lu-uuv...." lol lol lol

Now this is a CD I have to get! I love Outstanding, especially the 12" version so I gotta hear more.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that
