Venus Starr - Ms Sassy Frassy Classy - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Spacey Lady was the second solo effort from the Boston-based producer/songwriter Maurice Starr. Released in 1983 on Arista Records while he was enjoying success with his brothers Michael & Soni as the Jonzun Crew, Spacey Lady was in line with the electro-funk sound that was popular in the early 80s. It also found Maurice experimenting with more ballads & pop-flavored sounds that served him well when he discovered New Edition and New Kids On The Block. Limited edition of 2000.

New Venusians is a seven-piece band modern R&B/soul band from Sydney, Australia. They're essentially a supergroup made up of the city's finest touring/session musicians & singers - who perform with the likes of Sampa The Great, Chet Faker, Ngaiire, and countless others. On their debut album, released on burgeoning US tastemaker tag, Fresh Selects, the Venusians take things into their own hands - writing & producing for themselves as a group for the first time. The group's two rotating lead singers bring both a female (Meklit Kibret) and male (Christian Hemara) perspective to the album's themes of falling in and out hope & love, backed by jazz guitars, thick basslines, and hard-knocking wall-of-sound style drums for a truly one-of-akind soul music that sounds neither InchretroInch or Inchfuturistic,Inch but instead something completely new in between.
