Naked To The World (with bonus tracks)
CD (Item 613138) Epic/Soulmusic.com (UK), 1988 — Condition: New Copy
Nothing too naked here – at least not in the over-exposed way you'd think from the word – as Teena Marie puts it all upfront, lets it all hang out, but always in a bold way that keeps her firmly on top! The album follows strongly from Marie's previous Epic albums – a strong undercurrent of the funk learned during the Rick James/Motown years, but percolated in leaner 80s soul arrangements – some nice bass bits on the bottom, a few catchy crossover riffs, and the kind of badass vocals that always made Teena an empowering artist back in the day! Titles include "Trick Bag", "Ooo La La La", "Crocodile Tears", "Surrealistic Pillow", "Work It", and "The Once & Future Dream". CD features 4 bonus tracks – including "Ooo La La La (US 12" version)", "Sing One To Your Love (inst)", "Work It (US hip hop 12" mix)", and "Surrealistic Pillow (sexy pillow remix)". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
