Cameo @ Rhythm & Rawls + Soul Train (1982) 1rst 3 clips are locked Just Be Yourself Alligator Woman Flirt & Just Be Yourself
+ finally on youtube 2 tracks from their "Style" album, including "Let's Not Talk Slot" ("Alligator Woman"-part 2 ) and "This Life Is Not For Me", with a cool nod to the late Bobby Debarge.

Let's Not Talk Slot was the jam.
The Style album was better than people gave credit. [Edited 9/1/10 6:57am] Don't laugh at my funk

Word! ... man i was rocking this album fiercely when i just bought it back then. I'm glad to see on youtube-comments the props they are getting for this project. One solid comment in particular caught my attention at the youtube-clip of "You're a Winner" :
rhythmcdr (youtube-member ) : " ...a GREAT song on an under appreciated album; CAMEO deserved more credit for the brilliance of this album ... Word Up garnered the kudos...this joint was the PHD dissertation to prove they belong with EWF, Isleys, MAZE & CON FUNK SHUN as the top great R&B bands ..."
For me it's one album-rollercoaster from Feel Me/Knights of the Soundtable/Alligator Woman/Style/She's Strange ... ... my fave series where they entered a new era of creativity.
oh, and i added an extra clip in my first post

Exactly my funkface when i first heard it They ripped the stage when i watched them performing "Slow Movin" during the second leg of their Word Up-Tour. Synths were all over the place with Kenni Hairston on lead. | |
