1980s R&B Jam of the Day: Cameo "Flirt"

The second release from their 1982 album "Alligator Woman" was, like most of the tracks, a departure from the then-established brass-heavy funk that made them famous. A quirky, synthesizer-drive groove with laid-back ensemble singing makes this one of my favorite songs from Larry Blackmon & crew.

THE TRAFFIC JAMMERS, The Org's house band: VAINANDY -- lead singer; NAJEE -- bass; THE AUDIENCE -- guitar; PHUNKDADDY -- rhythm guitar; ALEX de PARIS -- keyboards; Da PRETTYMAN -- keyboards; FUNKENSTEIN -- drums. HOLD ON TO YOUR DRAWERS!

One of the many ass shakers of 1982.

One of my fave albums by a great band, Cameo. This whole album is bangin'. The bass guitar on this track is killin' as well.

Damn, I haven't seen this in over 20 years! I also saw the vid for Prince's "Let's Pretend We're Married". I never knew he made one for this classic!
