My fav album by Rick with my no. 1 song from Mr Punkfunk, throwdown and the best collection to get the party started. Wild unadulterated funk throughout.

His second best album behind "Street Songs" IMO, it's a must for any RJ/Funk music fan

Only thing missing is the other heater.. Money Talks. "I say yeaaaaah money talks"

when is Motown/Universal gonna remaster this thing? This album deserves the 2-CD Deluxe Edition treatment.

I like Happy...a good track.

I like Money Talk$ too (bullshit.. "ching!!" )

rebelsoldier said:

My favorite rick album too. This is the one that had the hard ass
funk like money talks, throwin down, dance wit me, and hard to get.

Hard To Get. That's definitely one of my favorite tracks by RJ. But that whole album is bananas. But yet again Motown and their infinite wisdom won't re-release it Go figure.

Man, they (record co.) could make some dough, if they released stuff like this. It don't have to be mass marketing, just release them.

I agree, It's one of my top RJ LP's too.

SUMMER OF '82.....BUFFALO, NEW YORK!!!!! YEEEEEAH!!!!!
"HAPPY" IS MY FAVORITE RICK & TEENA DUET MORESO THAN "FIRE & DESIRE"!!!!!

I HAVE ONE OF THOSE RARE MOTOWN 2 LP ON 1 CD VERSION OF "STREET SONGS/THROWIN' DOWN"!!!!!

My favorite Rick James album. Rick at his best.

I heard that Motown screwed this twofer up by using the single edit of "Dance Wit Me" appparently,they didn't think they had enough room to fit both albums on one CD.

SoulAlive said:

That's why I hate those damn two-fers

It's a damn cd!!!! You should have plenty of room..

funkpill said:

No,it's only Motown that screws up on twofers I have twofers from other labels and they include all the songs in their full-length versions (the Cheryl Lynn 'In the Night/Instant Love' twofer,for example).

SoulAlive said:

That's a double cd set...

Which is the way it should be

Should never connect one album with another

I even got to see Rick on the "Throwin' Down" tour in Oakland with Cameo and One Way as opening acts.

I wish they'd ask me to make a greatest hits CD.
