The Time



Prolific Funk in its all time coolness! When you start thinking about being "Cool", The LP cover should suggest the following: The Mack Dady hat, The lean back, The hands in the pocket, funky fresh suits & a city backdrop! The Time kept the people listening to that minneapolis sound on the vibe! Morris Day, Jerome, Monte Moir, Jesse Johnson, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis was absolutely no joke playas!! NONE!

Track Listing
~ Get It Up
~ Girl
~ After Hi School
~ Cool
~ Oh, Baby
~ The Stick

"Get It Up" was touched by several cats in the R&B community well after The Time dropped it on your turntable. And the grooveline was clearly the jam the minute you spun the vinyl back!!; "The Stick" carried on to the break of dawn exactly what will make ya'll wonder what to expect next on the next album; But "Cool" was the one! Nah, I don't think ya'll can hear me......"COOL" WAS THE JAM!!!!!

I brought this album to your attention T.U.M.S. to help ya'll break away from the cycle of always buying greatest hits collections & please reconsider finding individual albums from breakthrough cats like these fellas! 'Cause they not only came behind Prince Rogers Nelson to change the game in Minneapolis & abroad, Their music is STILL getting madd airplay at concert halls & old school (70's & 80's) parties!

And ya'll should know there's more albums in the mist from these cats. I still think to myself sometimes: What IF Jam & Lewis got back together, or betta yet, the WHOLE original gang came back to do one more album for todays generation of players?

Man, Oh Man!!!
