La Toya Jackson - You're Gonna Get Rocked! 2CD Deluxe Edition out 25 November

From Cherry Pop Records:



...You're
gonna get rocked - again!

LA TOYA JACKSON - YOU'RE GONNA GET ROCKED!
Deluxe Edition
Cherry Pop CRPOPD 142
Released 25th November
2013

Available to pre-order now - http://amzn.to/LaToyaRocks

"You’re Gonna Get
Rocked!", the fifth studio album from international pop icon La Toya Jackson, is
given a Deluxe Edition reissue on Cherry Pop.

Originally released in
1988, "You’re Gonna Get Rocked!" was a major departure from La Toya’s earlier
material and found her targeting the international market with a host of
high-profile collaborators, including synthpop legend Harold Faltermeyer, hip
hop innovators Full Force and pop production powerhouse Stock Aitken Waterman.
The chart hits "Ain’t Nobody Loves You (Like I Do)" and the title track feature
alongside further single releases "Tell Me (She Means Nothing To You At All)",
"You Blew" and "Such A Wicked Love".

Digitally remastered direct from the
master tapes, this Deluxe Edition also features extensive bonus material. La
Toya’s previously unreleased original recording of Nia Peeples’ 1988 hit
"Trouble", produced by Steve Harvey, has been mixed especially for this release,
which also contains a comprehensive collection of sought-after remixes –
including an unheard 1988 remix of the SAW track "Tell Me (She Means Nothing To
You At All)" from PWL’s Pete Hammond and a host of others on CD for the very
first time.

The extensive booklet also features a reversible cover,
additional photos, a fully illustrated discography and recording data, lyrics,
new sleeve notes written especially for this release and exclusive personal
input from La Toya herself.

The fifth child of music’s most famous
family, La Toya Jackson needs little introduction. Since her chart debut in
1980, she has made her mark as a Grammy-winning songwriter, singer,
twice-bestselling author, businesswoman, philanthropist and inimitable icon of
popular culture. Most recently, appearances on "Celebrity Apprentice",
"America’s Next Top Model" and "RuPaul’s Drag Race" have been followed with La
Toya’s own reality TV show, "Life With La Toya", on the Oprah Winfrey Network,
and an off-Broadway guest appearance in "NEWSical The Musical".

"You’re
Gonna Get Rocked!" finally follows up the very first Cherry Pop title, La Toya’s
debut album "La Toya Jackson", and is the latest in a long line of popular
PWL-related reissues.

Watch the trailer, with clips of "Trouble" and the
remix of "(Tell Me) She Means Nothing To You At All," here: https://www.youtube.com/w...QfSQOI_yUc

I wonder if Motown will ever put out Tito's unreleased solo album. They've re-released albums by lesser known acts like Chris Clark & Kiki Dee.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

But those Chris Clark and Kiki Dee LPs were actually releases back in the 60s. Not just collecting dust in the Motown vaults like Tito's music.

This is all you need to know about the album! You can't fade a 1988 Full Force & SAW production.

"Heart Don't Lie" was way better than Janet's "Dreamstreet", released that same year.

When I noticed that Saw & Full Force were producers for this I knew I wanted in lol! Seriously I love both production teams. I downloaded the album so I'll have to give it a good listen later. I bet it's hot! razz

Seriously. How does Latoya Jackson get a reissue for her album no one has heard and meanwhile Prince's iconic albums are still awaiting a remaster?


I wonder how many copies this is going to sell

Were they not better charting originally? Because I personally have better real memory from the 80s of Rebbie and Latoya's albums than the brothers' at all.


Maybe Janet's later success makes the current public demand and prefer female Jacksons.

The did chart better, but I think the brothers albums are in more demand now a days.

I mean how many discussions have we seem on here of Rebbie's LP as compared to Randy or Marlon?

Rebbie's LP is just a serving platter for "Centipede" which gets posted wayyyy more often than anything by the brothers.

I know about Marlon's solo album from the 80's. He had a pretty sizeable R&B hit with "Don't Go". But, you'd be hard-pressed to find someone who actually remembers it. Never knew Jackie and Randy did solo albums. I guess there were no successful singles??? I don't recall hearing anything on the radio or music video shows.

Rebbie's "Centipede" still gets spins on old-school R&B radio.

The album is pretty good for me LOL. She has a terrible voice, but Full Force come through with some fun songs.

Infact, the LP was almost like Side A were the US production team and Side B the Europeans. Side A comes out on top easily, but I never liked SAW productions and this album was no different. Had no idea the terrible track "Just say no" had been remixed on the album (hence the bonus track), but infact it had! The hook of that stupid song is catchy as hell though mad

Harold Faltermeyers sole contribution "Turn on the radio" is a real guilty pleasure. Lord knows what the lyrics are about, but that's just typical of some euro dance music anyway LOL. I just love the song and production, aswell as the goofy vocoder break down. Compare Harold's production on this track to the SAW one's and to me anyway, his sound was miles more interesting and "intricate". SAW's stuff often sounds lazy and uninspired to me....

"You blew" is by far my fav track though. I love all the "to and fro" chatter between Latoya and Full Force.

Luckily, Full Force were clever by hiding Latoya's voice most of the time with lots of sound effects and backing vocals. Much needed LOL

"FF got my back, just incase you act wack". Tell 'em Latoya!

I also love this cheesy as hell line by one of the guys:

Full Force:"Hey Baby I'll teach you your ABC's, I'll be there"

Latoya:"Well alright"

lol

Yes but have you actually heard it LOL.

I bought it many years ago as a teen as I stumbled across a copy on vinyl (now I have it on CD), and I still like some of it. As I said, Full Force actually make her sound tolerable on a couple of tracks....

Though their ballad for her, "Not giving up on love", despite sounding like their own "All in my mind", which is fair enough, must hold the title for "most overly programmed drum track on a ballad ever". And on this one, unfortunately they dropped the ball as she sounds awful. The song is awful too LOL. Ballads always gave away a bad singer back then....

Much better is "If I could get to you", which had the benefit of having a great singer duet with her in John Pagano (his solo album in the early 90's is very underated I feel). Unfortunately, it's not on youtube, but it's a nice slice of midtempo 80's rnb. Seriously LOL. This is one of those "hidden" rnb tracks that would of been pretty great if pretty much anyone but Latoya sang on it LOL. As it stands, its a wasted track, but still interesting though.

Video clip is fun. I don't mind the song actually, even if it does seem to ripoff "hangin' tough" abit.
