Printablehis remark on other artists is pathetic,
but back in the day,between 1979-1981 he could live up 2 his image. just check out "street songs (deluxe edition)". a 2cd set featuring the classic "street songs" from 1981.the 2´nd cd is a superenergic live concert from the same year where he drives the californian audience wild. /peace manki | |

--- Dude, Rick is mad and jelous and it is tired and lame. Well, I guess he's jealous of a whole lotta people, considering that he talks trash about just everybody In addtion, I have never heard him say anything nice about Prince
Really? I have.

In fact he use to talk bad about P-Funk and The Temptations. The guy is a asshole. I will not go into the drugs and the attacking woman nonsense. He was in DC about a year ago and I was told he was horrible. He forgot song lyrics and was verbaly abusive to the audience. | |

I really hope that Motown will re-master the other essential Rick James albums ('Come Get It'(1978),'Throwin Down'(1982) and 'Cold Blooded'(1983).Add a second disc to each one,filled with rarities and outtakes and I will be a happy camper indeed. | |

It is quite excellent, David! I've been jammin' to it all weekend, or at least the second disc!  Funky as shit! Ahhh...the shit takes me back to a better time! And you're right, I hope this is the start of Motown remastering the rest of his catalog too! | |

I love Rick James music in the day. It saddens me deeply that we were as yet (and more likely never) not to know where his talent in music could have gone.
We have seen what drugs,ego and growing old in times bitter garden does to one. . [This message was edited Mon Jan 27 9:23:33 PST 2003 by Muse2noPharaoh] | |

I love the part where he asks people to raise their left hand and pretend like it's the KKK and "smack the shit out of it"! What a way to put it! | |

The concert I wanted to attend so badly in summer of 1982 here in Atlanta was Rick James/Ray Parker Jr and Cheri. That summer Rick was riding high with his Throwin Down album and Ray Parker was ruling with his great album The Other Woman. However, me and buddies parents wouldn't let us get tickets for the show because of Rick's image and the things he known to do at his concerts. | |
