Exposé - Exposure 30th Anniversary Thread I know its 3 days late, but I wanna do a thread to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Exposé's debut album, "Exposure". Talk and post about Gioia Bruno, Ann Curless and Jeanette Jurado and the original line-up, Sandee, Alé and Laurie Miller.

I love this album."Let Me Be The One" is my favorite track....the lead vocals are sensational! I saw Expose in concert a few years ago at a 'Freestyle Explosion' concert.We're gonna have another one this summer,I hope Expose is on the bill again. | |

Loved them, and was able to meet Gioia several years back when she was doing her solo thing. I remember talking to her about Taylor Dayne (and her attitude) and who happened to be their Arista label mate back in those days. | |

I heard that Taylor wasn't happy at Arista under the guidance of Clive Davis.She didn't like the songs he was choosing for her to record.She started off as a dance/freestyle artist but then he turned her into an adult contemporary artist singing sappy ballads. | |

Clive had a problem with artists like Taylor Dayne and Melissa Manchester wanting to write their own songs. | |

Very interesting.It appears that the first line-up was sorta tentative....the producers had a hot song ("Point Of No Return") and quickly threw together a group to perform it.I feel bad for the original girls,but that's how the music business can be | |

Props though to the three ladies of EXPOSE, Jeannette, Ann and Gioia all three when they wanted to come back and tour, were met with lawsuits and fights from producers that they could NOT use the name, the girls went to court and got the rights to do it and market themselves too.

Missmusicluver72 said: I always liked them. They have great songs and all could sing. :nod: there were a lot of female Freestyle groups in the 80s but Expose really stood out.They have strong voices and were given top-notch songs. | |

the song "Point Of No Return" is so damn addictive and catchy....truly one of the best dance songs of the late 80s.Once you hear those synths at the beginning,you know it's time to party! | |
