    bump?

  • back and forth

  • great! I was just wondering if there was a thread of this sort laying around.

    Do you guys dance to yourselves when you hear Cameo? I know I do...

    Yes!

    Only found out about them a couple of months ago when I picked up the Back and Forth 12". A week later, same spot i came upon "Shes Strange".

    I'm 23. Never really had anyone put me up on stuff older than 1990, 'cept my dad, but the funky 80's section of his record collection begins and ends with Earth Wind & Fire (it does contain a lot of good 70's jazz though).
    And since I'm not the type to go find a torrent called "Greatest funk records 1975-1985" or whatever, and get schooled that way- digging in the crates round town (and lurking round soulstrut, of course) is how I discover new (old) music.

    I got the album by Mantra (produced by Larry Blackmon) last year and would highly recommend it..sorry I don't have a cover photo handy. It's pretty priceless. I'm still looking for a nice copy of East Coast.
    I was just playing "Please You" by Cameo the other day. They're heavyweights. From a digging perspective, the bang for the buck factor couldn't be much better, either.
