Shirley Murdock Remember this chick from the 80's? She had a slow jam called "As we lay". I saw her cd in a record store and it looks soooo 80's which you all know I love. I think i'll pick it up late today. Did any of you guys have it? Could she have passed for a Prince chick? I kind of get that vibe from her. | |

LOL @ 'passed for a Prince chic'.
She's TOO bad to be under his broken wings, tell you that. Anyway, she's from the ZAPP/Roger Troutman scene, I think. | |

We're talking about a tuff sista here, not a chicken head. | |

Apparently, she had a sex change before Roger took her/him under his wing. | |

Actually,around 1986/87,there was a drag queen who was going around saying that he was Shirley Murdock.He snuck into award shows and got to meet folks like Tina Turner,who mistakenly believed his story  | |

For some reason, I always pictured Shirley to be a heavyset woman, but she isn't. Don't know where that idea came from.   RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

She didn't speak to any of them and the family members got pissed at the real Shirley Murdock. Andy is a four letter word. | |

Zapp did a show here in my city . I spoke someone on a forum once who had access all areas , so back in the dressingroom he met Shirley ... while she had not performed during the show ! 
It was one of the few shows in my country and she never performed on 1 . 
Her debut from 1985 . Featuring Teaser , a nasty synthesized jam . And You're The One I Need , a great mid-slow jam with a jazz-edge . http://www.youtube.com/wa...c8WNJyRCAA

[Edited 9/13/06 15:16pm] I should have known you'd be hip to her. Hell yeah her first cd is the bomb. It really does remind me at times of groups like vanity 6, apollonia 6 or madame x! great 80's dance grooves. | |
