   ▄▄▄▄▄       ▐██▓   of black folks (including myself as a    ▓██▌ ████▄   ▄█▌

       ▐███▌▄█████▀   light skin african-american. Motown      ▀█████▄  ▀▀▀
 ▄    ▄███▄█████▀     went as far as removing her pics from      ▀█████▄
  ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄   album covers and press when she debuted  ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
       ▐█████    ▐█▓  to try to hide this fact. A former Rick ▓█▌    █████▌
       █████▌    ███▌ James protgeee, this album was one of  ▐███    ▐█████
       ▀█████▄  ▓██▓  the first in which she took lead        ▓██▓  ▄█████▀
         ▀▀███████▀   control of the writing and production.   ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
     ▄▄▄     ▀▀██▄    It shows she is a true R&B musican who    ▄██▀▀■   ▀████▄
  ▄████▀▀▀▄    ▐██▓   didnt need the slick over production     ▓██▌ ▐▌    ▐████
 ▐████▌      ▄▄▓▓█▓▌  from a superstar to create first rate   ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
  ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀   classic hits (how many female singers    ▀█████▄  ▀▀▀
    ▀▀███▀▄█████▀     today can say the same!).                  ▀█████▄

       ▐█████    ▐█▓  The album is themed in the variety's of ▓█▌    █████▌
       █████▌    ███▌ music Teena listened to growing up. It ▐███    ▐█████
       ▀█████▄  ▓██▓  takes you on a trip from the funky      ▓██▓  ▄█████▀
         ▀▀███████▀   Marvelette's insprised title track to    ▀█████████
             ▀▀██▄    tributes to the then recently late John   ▄██▀▀███   ▀ ▄
   ▄▄▄▄▄       ▐██▓   Lennon ("Revolution") and the soul of    ▓██▌ ████▄   ▄█▌

 ▄    ▄███▄█████▀     At the least you may be familar with two   ▀█████▄
  ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄   tracks on the album already: namely the  ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
       ▐█████    ▐█▓  80s hit "Square Biz". This song was     ▓█▌    █████▌
       █████▌    ███▌ sampled by The Firm (Nas, AZ & Foxy    ▐███    ▐█████
       ▀█████▄  ▓██▓  Brown callbo project) in 1997 on the    ▓██▓  ▄█████▀
         ▀▀███████▀   track "Firm Biz" with Dawn Robinson      ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
     ▄▄▄     ▀▀██▄    (newly solo from En Vouge) on the hook.   ▄██▀▀■   ▀████▄
  ▄████▀▀▀▄    ▐██▓   This song is also signficant because its ▓██▌ ▐▌    ▐████
 ▐████▌      ▄▄▓▓█▓▌  one of the first R&B tracks to include  ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
  ▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀   a rap. Teena said she was inspried by    ▀█████▄  ▀▀▀
    ▀▀███▀▄█████▀     Blondie's rap in "Rapture" when recording  ▀█████▄
        ▄█████▀ ▀▄▄   it.                                      ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄

       █████▌    ███▌ The other is one of my all time        ▐███    ▐█████
       ▀█████▄  ▓██▓  favorites "Portuguese Love" (which      ▓██▓  ▄█████▀
         ▀▀███████▀   features a little of Rick James at the   ▀█████████
             ▀▀██▄    end) is a Quiet Storm classic which can   ▄██▀▀███   ▀ ▄
   ▄▄▄▄▄       ▐██▓   bring down the house anyday. Teena was   ▓██▌ ████▄   ▄█▌
  ▀  ▀▀███▄   ▄▓▓█▓▌  inprised on this song by early works of ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀
       ▐███▌▄█████▀   Santana and El Chicano.                  ▀█████▄  ▀▀▀

  ▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄   What is special to this reissue is that  ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
       ▐█████    ▐█▓  it contains the 12" single version of   ▓█▌    █████▌
       █████▌    ███▌ "Square Biz" (its fade-out is 17       ▐███    ▐█████
       ▀█████▄  ▓██▓  seconds longer). Also adding the        ▓██▓  ▄█████▀
         ▀▀███████▀   instrumental version that originally     ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
     ▄▄▄     ▀▀██▄    appeared on the B-side of that single. It ▄██▀▀■   ▀████▄
  ▄████▀▀▀▄    ▐██▓   concludes with a 14-minute excerpt from  ▓██▌ ▐▌    ▐████
 ▐████▌      ▄▄▓▓█▓▌  Teena's July 30, 1981, concert in Long  ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
