Then The Mary Jane Girls was another Vanity/Appollonia 6 destined 4 no more than 2 or three hits that you KNOW they didn't write lol Wasn't the girl group concept Rick's before Prince? Either way it wasn't even close as to who was more talented. Mary Jane Girls. I disagree with the Taste of Honey assessment. lol "Taste Of Honey" was the only other black all girl band I could compare 'em too, but they played a hell of a lot better than Klymaxx ever did. You ever see their reunion show on VH1? They were sloppy as hell. [Edited 11/16/09 12:39pm] | |

Just watched it on youtube.MC Lyte even was amazed at how they pulled it off after a 15 year absence. Don't get me wrong Taste of Honey was cool but they were not an all female band. They were a female duo who happened to play guitars. When they toured they were definitely backed by male musicians. I dig Taste of Honey but Klymaxx chops were harder. Don't laugh at my funk

I know i stated that earlier. I was wondering what happened to her because she didn't show up at all on the VH1 bands reunited show. She may have been in rehab or something. All the ladies have aged somewhat but damn she really has aged. She looks like she can be one of John Witherspoon's women now. Don't laugh at my funk

They were due to release an album called Conversation in 86. My ass was constantly calling the record store for the release date and it kept getting pushed back. All the while Rick got into a dispute with Motown and couldn't use the name anymore. He wound up giving some of the songs to Val Young in 87 on her Private Conversations album. Don't laugh at my funk

Ironically i've been in a Klymaxx mood today so i dug out some of the old stuff and i actually stumbled across Bernadette's solo album. Hadn't pulled it out in damn near 16 years. I actually got a promo back then from a friend who used to work for MCA. I liked I Look Good and Straight Jacket Love Affair but the album itself was a hot mess. Don't laugh at my funk

Bernadette let everyone know who had been inquiring about Robbin that she had a very bad life experience and is glad she is alive and well. Bernadette will be on the Tom Joyner morning show tomorrow morning at 8:45. Don't laugh at my funk

I was wondering about that too. You know, they didn't mention if she went off into drugs, had a disease or what! She reminded me so much of Frankie (Keyshia Cole's mom) when I saw her. I wanted to laugh, but couldn't bring myself to do it. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

Those girls all looked ROUGH. All of 'em. I turned off that Unsung. It's the only one besides the Clark sisters that I never watched. It was a completely unnecessary and uninteresting ep "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

Much love to Bernadette....."Drama According To" was ahead of it's time, I always thought.
And I agree with Phunk here.....no disrespect to "A Taste Of Honey".....I love them.....and they are REALLY good musicians..... But I'm sorry.....I saw Klymaxx in their prime.....those gurls were HUGE.....played all positions sincerely.....and really exciting to watch. I miss you gals. Wish you could set "it all aside" & BE the "girls in the band" again. Just for the music, you know? Funk Is It's Own Reward | |
