5.0 out of 5 stars A Funk Legend That Will Be Forever Missed, January 3, 2004

I've been listoning to Zapp since "More Bounce" and have been
hooked since. But this album will remain my favorite. I am a true funkaholic and this album is truly his funkiest from Roger's trademark talkbox down to the skill of the entire band.
This album explores many different facet's of music, Funk, Jazz and R&B. I reccomend this album to all who truly enjoy funk!! BUT if your just starting out to get into Zapp I warn you once you start you can't stop.
R.I.P Roger!!!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Phenomanal Funk Visitation!, September 25, 2003

Too bad Roger Troutman is no longer with us because here
with Zapp he was able to fasion an album in the 1980's that was
100% uptempo funk-same as Parliament had done eight years earlier
on "Mothership Connection" but with a new twist.Rogers vocorder
singing,the bands red-hot bluesy style with "Dance Floor",
"Playin' It Kinda' Ruff", and "Come On" invoking a general hard
James Brown meets synth funk vibe while "Doo Waa Ditty" and
the poppy "Do You really Want An Answer" add catchy hooks and
melodies to the affair,topping it all off with a repirse of
"Ruff".A veritable colossus and (for funk snobs) about the closest thing outside of George Clinton to pure funk during the
early 80's.

5.0 out of 5 stars Zapp Pow!!!, September 1, 2005

Finally received my copy of this CD today and it just sounds absolutely fantastic! I knew only a couple of the tracks well before I purchased the album. I even used the music sampler to listen to all tracks before purchasing. However, the sampler does not do ANY of the tracks (even the lesser known tracks) any justice whatsoever. The album sounds as fresh as anything contemporary. If you were ever undecided in buying this album for the first time, or to replace a long lost copy...don't delay. Buy this album. It will surely brighten up your day. Love it, love it love it.
