Are u kidding me????? Man, I wore OUT "It Must Be Magic" & "Street Songs" during that magical Summer of 1981! Here in NYC, WBLS, KISS & WKTU were ON FIRE with all the hot summer jams (remember, Luther's 'Never too Much' had just come out).
Lady Tee had more soul in her pinky than any of today's so-called R&B "artists". She would definitely be invited to the family barbecue.
Teena Marie (and Patrice Rushen) are definitely underrated, and don't get the credit they deserve. This Speaking of Patrice, I've been digging in her catalog lately. I like to chill in the backyard with my speaker listening to the cool instrumental Number One. Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint | |
