Early Dance/Regular Funk-Disco R&B Funk - Punk Funk - Modern R&B Funk.....
Style to Word Up and their early/mid 80's sets were when they significantly slimmed down the band.
Those joints seemed like the culmination after years of albums.
Word Up was really their going out w/ a bang album to me....they never returned after that. Which was wierd cause they were huge on all levels.
Machismo (which has joints) and next stuff dont count...in my book.
I kinda preferred when Blackmon wasnt the frontman soaking up the spotlight.

I love a song or 2 off of each album, but not really any albums in full.
Alligator Woman has probably gotten the most full play burn outta me over the years.
Agree with Harvey. I can name fav Cameo songs, but not albums. For example I love Smile from Cardiac Arrest but don't really care for the rest of the LP.

I didn't get hip to Cameo before "She's Strange" (age-R) but honestly, after checking the 70s sets, I believe their latter work has the best tunes.
CODPIECE FUNK. AND WHAT OF IT?
I prob put out We All Know Who We Are and Alligator Woman more than the others but it's a tough call.
