PrintableJust pulled out my copy and noticed Amp Fiddler is credited for Keyboards on a couple of tracks.
This album is an essential album for those into funk especially the Minneapolis sound. For me its a 10/10. This is a Classic Album. | |

 A friend and I were talking about them over the weekend, and he pointed out how Foster/McElroy may have used Madame X a a template for Envogue. Their vocal sound, anyway. At 1st I was like "nah", but the more Ithink about it  sorry but i don't see/hear it. madame x were way hotter than envogue! | |

You'll love it. Next get Alisa Randolph's solo album. It's not as good as Madame X, but there's some good funk on it. spelling edit [Edited 1/22/07 21:56pm] what tracks do you like from her solo album. i like guilty, the entity and a couple more. can't think of the names right now. | |

"The Entity" is easily the best song on the album. I'll have to listen to it again though before I can give you others. | |

LOVED MAdame X! I think I saw their poster in a Black record store and bought it and later copied the cassette from someone.
but somehow the tape got copied at a higher speed (remember those old dual deck boom boxes??) and then in later years when I heard Just THat Type of A Girl it sounded too slow to me 
I keep looking for the whole album cuz i lost the cassette. Bernadette was too cool! Slap me one time!! PS Klymaxx has a myspace page and are supposed to tour but the show in my area got postponed.  |

 I rocked it all weekend. can you please translate wtf she is saying in the following lines from Just that Type of Girl? :
"Champaign, diamond rings, caviar, mingle with the stars(uh)....1st clas ticket and"zizzah bizzeh"" what the hell is "zizzah bizzeh"? Cherries in the Snow is my fave. I always thought it was "Make it With a star!..." although I guess what you wrote makes sense. And then "1st class ticket.... ATTITUDE TO Visit(?)"?? Did you convert your LP to MP3s??? I"m trying to find one to that. I Only have JTTOG on Mp3 and cherries in the snow. |

i thought they were pretty awful iam afraid. Standard funk/rnb that could of been done in the mid 80's.
"just that type of girl" is no better then early Pebbles. | |
