A touch of jazz was tight, as was the whole Zapp II album. That boy was SICK on guitar when he wanted to be!

I know Roger's brother Lester Troutman is doing gospel
right now. Is that who you meant? His son Roger Troutman Jr. had a cd out a few years ago called Second Coming. He did a remake of a couple of Zapp's song...good album too! Check it out. I still miss Roger...there will never be one like him. Love God and I shall 4ever Love u | |

Never liked the vocoder; it is an excuse for not being able to sing.  But Rogers music was funky--a little over the top, but decent.All you others say Hell Yea!!  | |

Co-Sign. that Project He did with SugarFoot back in 84 was no joke.Roger was Scary Versatile.He also ripped on a Banjo.Live on stage He was no Joke.I got a Friend who still talks about the Roger&Zapp Show back in 1980 on a Air-force base to this day.ROger Ripped it.RIP.

Phew... That's a tough one. Let's just say it's as funky as Prince at his funkiest. I suppose that's just the upper treshold of funkativity, no funk beyond this point.
