"I call my baby on the phone Got to get a message just to let her know that if she ever feels alone to Dial My Heart And if by chance you're not at home You can reach me baby by the nearest pay phone I gotta cross my fingers and pray you'll know to Dial My Heart" And now I'm all nostalgic for the LA and Babyface sound! Remember when you would turn on the radio and hear stuff like... "Rock Steady" by the Whispers (1987) "Girlfriend" by Pebbles (1988) "Secret Rendezvous" by Karyn White (1988) "Every Little Step" by Bobby Brown (1988) "Two Occasions" by the Deele (their own band) (1988) "The Lover In Me" by Sheena Easton (1988) "Roses Are Red" by the Mac Band (1988) "Another Sad Love Song" by Toni Braxton (1993) From about 1987-1995,their sound was everywhere and they pretty much dominated the R&B music scene back then,producing hit song after hit song.I gotta make me some kind of compilation with their best stuff on it. Some of those songs are pretty good. Did they write Bobby's Roni or Tenderoni,as its sometimes called,I NEVER get tired of that one. I DON'T WANT TO BE NORMAL,because normal is part of the status quo,which I don't want to be a part of- Tori Amos | |

L.A. was more of the business end of the team. Face wrote the songs from what I gather. | |

I miss them
and I always thought it was funny-cool how they slipped their patented "oh oh" chants into as many songs as they could...the uptempo ones at least "Climb in my fur." | |

Did they write Bobby's Roni or Tenderoni,as its sometimes called,I NEVER get tired of that one. He actually co-wrote all of Bobby's "Don't be cruel" album. If you like Roni you're gonna enjoy every track on that album for sure. It is as polished as Toni Braxton's first album. Flawless. | |

Around 1994,the two of them stopped working together.I never understood why.As producers,they were a great,inspired team.Babyface wrote and produced some wonderful stuff without LA (Madonna's "Take A Bow",the 'Waiting To Exhale' soundtrack,much of the 'Soul Food' soundtrack,etc),but I really miss seeing the two of them work together.Their sound was incredible. But they're still close.Their joint record label LaFace has dissolved,and all of their former acts are now signed directly to Arista and of course,LA is in charge over there.Babyface originally had plans for his own new record label,Nu America Records,to be distributed by Arista,but those plans fell through.(On a sidenote,Jam and Lewis were planning a new label called FlyteTyme Records to be distributed by Arista,but those plans fell through too.Apparently,big record companies are becoming increasingly afraid to bankroll these record labels started by producers and artists). are you sure they are close because from the folks I know here in Indy where Babyface is from, the rumor is that LA embelezzed (is that spelled right) money at LaFace. Thats what the rumor is here. Ooh,I never heard that one! But who knows? --- The rumor was they split up because of embelzment by LA Reid and the whole TLC disater. Of course Babyface turns right around and signs with Arista records and has two records bomb. He needs to wise up. | |

Chuckki Booker was definitley Troop! Hey did you ever notice how that tune "Return of the Mack" stole from Chuckii's song "Games?" I'm not sure if he's credited but it's almost a sample! ______________________________________________
