Tony Toni Tone :: Holy Smokes and Gee Whiz

This is my by far favorite Tonyies cut...Raphael was killin' it with his Russell Thompkins Jr-styled flavor on this track.



House of Music is so underrated... music

I liked the track okay but it was one of my least favs on the album.
I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

Amen! House of Music is my fave TTT joint and TTT is one of my fave sould bands from any era.

First tune I ever heard by them was a single. Don't recall the name of it at the moment but it was a party tune and they was sangin', "I don't know what you come ta do..."

Only have that one on cassette somewhere and haven't heard it in years. Love those guys though and I totally agree with some on another thread that Rafael hasn't done anything on his own that matches his TTT oeuvre.

I dig this cut as much of the cd. Wasn't it Dwayne singing lead and
Raphael singing background towards the end of the song?

Yep... Saadiq did the back to the 60's-70's thing a while ago..with TTT. It had less of a true "vintage sound" and instruments though..
