All things considered, Throwin' Down was an enjoyable, if imperfect and slightly uneven, addition to the funkster's catalog.Įxact Audio Copy V1.0 beta 3 from 29. This album does sound like recycled Street Songs at times, but in 1982, James had yet to run the formula into the ground. "Happy," a duet with Teena Marie, and "Teardrops" point to the fact that James can be a very expressive ballad singer even though he is best known for his up-tempo material. Many of the songs are excellent, including the cynical "Money Talks" and the major hits "Standing on the Top" (which features the Temptations) and "Dance Wit' Me." Not surprisingly, hardcore funk dominates the record, although Throwin' Down contains a few pleasing soul ballads as well. That year's Throwin' Down, the album that followed Street Songs, falls short of essential but is still rewarding. Unfortunately, James tried to recycle the album's formula on many of his subsequent albums, and by the mid-'80s, he had become a very predictable and redundant caricature of himself. Rick James fans generally agree that 1981's Street Songs is his finest album – in fact, Street Songs is essential listening for anyone with even a casual interest in hardcore funk. © 1982, 2013 Motown Records / Universal Japan | UICY-75864 | Motown R&B Best Collection Series Rick James - Throwin' Down (1982) ĮAC rip (secure mode) | FLAC (tracks)+CUE+LOG -> 294 Mb | MP3 -> 97 Mbįull Artwork 300 dpi (png) -> 16 Mb | 5% repair rar
