Carl Anderson's "Buttercup" = last of the modern soul. I define this as using the same instrumentation and production techniques as the 70's. I am thinking The Futures, Chapter 8, Anita Baker "Songstress" on Beverly Glen, Maze...
Post-Modern (Trench-Coat Soul???) = The same kind of songs but done with the 80's instrumentation (DX7 / Linn drum on everything), programming, and production. Hollow at Patrice Rushen on "Watchout"! On-point call.
Am I close? So can I get Post-Modern, pastel-coloured-and-everyone-rocking-a-Duran-Duran-bling-look- cover love for:
Beau Williams Freddie Jackson (on Capitol - "Rock Me Tonight") Howard Johnson ("Knees" is class) Glenn Jones ("Finesse" set) Genobia Jeter Vesta Williams Me'Lisa Morgan Mtume ("Juicy Fruit") - In fact anything w. Tawatha Agee = Trenchness Pieces of a Dream Cameo on "Single Life" Roy Ayers "In The Dark" - Oh Yeah... DMX (not the dude) and Linn in full effect Thelma Houston ("You Used To Hold Me So Tight")
Teddy Riley closed the book on this era. Mary J and R Kelly put the book away to gather dust on the upper echelons of time's bookshelf until :truebelievers: decided to dust that bad boy off.

Cameo is iffy for me because of the "rapping" and their FUNK foundation.
Youre right there,but there are cats doing it through the New Jack Swing Era.
Im on the fence w/ Cameo. Theyre pretty much a Funk Band that's been able to manuver the waters of the mid to late 80s, which is the Post-Modern (Trench-Coat Soul???)Era.

1988
True dat. But then, I am cold on their funk catalogue. I think the band ultimately evolved into their endgame on this incarnation of The Cameosis:
Damn, is it me or is trenchness on a female surprisingly Blappable in the 21st?
DID YOU ROCK THE LOOK?
I remember rocking a look that consisted of a juxtapositive brouhaha of these very elements:
I was 17... with 2 days of beard I could get served anywhere. Hollow at my pipes.
Of course these days, I rock the Miami Vice look.
I own a White Polyurethane Raincoat that is a must.
Trenchcoat Soul
Who else is feeling this one from 88?
Brenda Russell - Get Here 1988
Her version of Get Here is nice. Oleta Adams' rendition became a big hit.
Im on the fence w/ Cameo. Theyre pretty much a Funk Band that's been able to manuver the waters of the mid to late 80s, which is the Post-Modern (Trench-Coat Soul???)Era.
too electro?
'hearsay' is an alltime favorite. 'can you stand the rain' is a total bite of sunshine
???
wow. Late 80's British Trenchcoat? I cant call it.
Will Downing???
1988 - YES!!!!!
