I miss these guys. I lost track of Lady Miss Kier and I listen to Towa Tei’s stuff but I miss them as a group.

Here’s one of my favorite songs off of Dew Drops in the Garden…

I gotta get their album....the one with "Groove Is In The Heart".That song is a jam!

That jam was back in the clubs in my old whoring days when I first "discovered" myself. We were throwing down back then with Deee-lite, Black Box, The 49ers, Crystal Waters, Cee Cee Penniston, Pat and Mick, 2 In A Room, Jomanda, etc.

That house/dance explosion felt the disco era all over again. It was such a great change from the weak Shitney Houston inspired R&B of the late 80s. Those groups I mentioned were played big time in the gay clubs mostly. I don't remember hearing them much on the R&B stations. Of course, I was getting sick of radio by that time. Things seemed to be back on track musically on the fast track where music should be.....and then came shit hop.

World Clique. That’s a classic.

Thanks! I'm listening to a mix right now.

I wish I had stayed with them after the second album. The 3rd...Dewdrops is really their best!

Kier does spin here and there, she posts her schedule up on her site. I do wish she'd release music though...I've heard it and it's pretty good.

I still think a Deee-Lite reunion would totally work and folks would probably get back into them...that is if they can get Towa Tei back into the fold.

Did they ever have a song called Now is tomorrow? I've been looking for it and could never find it.

I did like some of their first album, I'll have to check out the others when I have time.

how funny...while i love these groups it was the ladies from a couple years after that blew me away (i was actually just surfing the net reading up on some of them). dajae, ultra nate, lil india, barbara tucker, joy cardwell were my dance floor muses.

but my senior year in high school it was all about miss lady kier.

Lady Miss Kier is FABULOUS!! I met her a couple of years ago while she was dj'ing at Pearl Necklace. She sometimes does Horsemeat Disco as well I think.

There's a link to the video in the first post.

There was so much gay music back in the 90's.Now these days they are playing mostly hip hop in the clubs. I just can't dance to that shit.

Well apparently the new songs were so hot the guy couldn't keep his clothes on. (No complaining from me!) So -- if she's been working on new material, why hasn't there been a solo release? She has a website, DJ's all over the place, and there is such a thing called CD Baby where artists can sell their stuff independently. Do you suppose she's waiting for Clive Davis to come a knockin'?

(I always thought she looked like Mariah Carey's little sister -- and now that she's put on a few pounds, even more so...)

"Dieu Reconnaitra Les Siens"
