CAMEO - CD CARDIAC ARREST / WE ALL KNOW

Popis - CARDIAC ARREST / WE ALL KNOW:
In the world of funk, Cameo stand as one of the precious stones in the crown. A band that had the ability to take funk rhythms, make them danceable yet also retain a high degree of musicianship. Their excellent debut album, 1977?s Cardiac Arrest, was highlighted by four singles. Three of those hit the Billboard R&B chart. 1978 saw the release of their second and third albums. The second title of our two on one CD is ?We All Know Who We Are?, which saw Cameo becoming increasingly successful. This got into the top 60 on the mainstream chart and number 15 on the R&B countdown. The single ?It?s Serious? not only gave the band a Top 20 R&B hit but also got onto the all important dance chart, hitting number 21. With songs like ?C on The Funk?, Cameo were really finding their range and establishing a unique niche. Cameo would of course go on to bigger things as the 1980?s opened up, getting no less than eight gold discs and one platinum disc in America. CAMEO belong to the elite pioneers of the funk-dance movement, sprinkling their songs with visual charisma to more than hold their own in a world where outrage and excess were rampant!
