The only song that I know of by them is 'Tell Me' which sounds an awful lot like 'All Night Long' by the Mary Jane Girls. But what do you guys think of them, they played 'Tell Me' on the radio the other day and I really started grooving to it, do they have anything else worth checking out???

"Tell Me" is my favorite by them, but I enjoyed the follow-up single, "Keep Tryin'." I haven't heard the whole album in forever, but I remember liking the mellow vibe (although I thought it was a little too mellow overall). I have a friend who loves it.

Yeah I hear you, but I love mellow music, I can just sit and chill. I often find myself just listening to low to mid-tempo music, not all of the time, but a good portion of the time, just depends on the mood I'm in. So I'd probably drive VainAndy crazy playing Sade, jazz, and songs like 'Tell Me' by TGT .

Tell Me, Baby Luv, Didja Know, 10 Minute High, Hello It's Me are some of my favorites from that album.

If you like them you might want to check out Amel Larrieux's solo work especially her first album "Infinite Possibilities". Some of her songs have the GT vibe

Nothing really tops "Tell Me" and I have the Groove Theory album and one or two Amel solo discs.

love Groove Theory and I LOVE AMEL!!!

The instrumental is a jam also

you should get the whole album it's the bomb trust me i don't know what happened after them but it kind of went down hill after that

I love the group. sorry they are not togetherfor all that amel still makes nice songs

Let's be real...

She was Groove Theory wasn't she??

funkpill said:

Don't forget about Bryce Wilson. He was in Mantronix and co-wrote "You're Making Me High" with Babyface.

AlexdeParis said:

Not forgettin him at all..

But he was more in the background and it wasn't like he sang a duet with Amel

funkpill said:

Well, no, but he did the producing and IIRC the bulk of the writing.

AlexdeParis said:

She's a writer too isn't she??

AlexdeParis said:

Wow I didn't know this. For Mantronix I only know the 1985-1988 stuff plus the hit "Got To Have Your Love" from 1990.

Yeah, he was in the group for "Got to Have Your Love." He was still there for the next album, which had two singles co-written by Angie Stone, "Step to Me (Do Me)" and "Don't Go Messin' With My Heart."

funkpill said:

Yes, but I thought he was doing more of the writing then. I could be wrong, though. At any rate, one of the things that makes "Tell Me" so fantastic is the production.

I Loved the entire Groove Theory album--- one of the bright, high points of the 90's, and there weren't that many !!!!

Didja Know was probably my favorite of all, though...

I highly enjoyed the Groove Theory debut when it was initially released. Played it from start to finish every time I listened to it. Used to zone out to it.

Bought the album on the strength of "Tell Me" and "Baby Luv."

I bought Amel's Infinite Possibilities in 2000 based sheerly on how much I enjoyed her on the Groove Theory record. Wasn't as memorable as GT, but an okay album.

I have not listened in a while but I remember digging the entire cd,
