What do you guys think of this album? I guess this was the beginning of the end for these guys huh? I've had this for a while but I'm thinking of giving it a second chance? Do you think this album is weak? I like how fast the faster songs are. Very upbeat.

My Girly is the jam! You might be into the album.The only thing is it goes into slow jam mode towards the end. The faster songs sound pretty funky.

Overall, I think it's a solid project, although more New Jack less Mpls Sound. Wasn't a big fan of "Cowboy" and "Late Saturday Night" was transformed into "It's All Up To You" (w/Willie Triplett singing Lead). There's a REASON Melvin Riley Jr. is the Lead Singer........................

I thought the album was cool.....

I was anticipating their follow up from 1986

I was a junior when Ruff N Ready came out in 88

My favorite song was this one........

I didn't really care for it. From what i can remember i liked Shame

and Gently. My Girly was mad corny to me.

I love the first two albums,but I was disappointed with Ruff N' Ready."Gently" is a nice slow jam,though.

I dig all of their releases.

I was a hug RFTW fan....but I must admit. Their music seems a little dated. Hard to listen to some of that stuff now. Great group for the 80's! I definitely think Ruff and Ready was over looked.

Summer '88..remember it well. Spun "My Girly" for about a week & then nada. Did NOT like this album.

I remember trying to make myself like the song "My Girly",but it didn't work It's just a weak song.

Imo,their best song is "Digital Display" from the first album that song still packs a punch.
