Search - Rick James :: Street Songs: Rarities Edition (Spec)

2010 stand-alone single disc release that contains all the bonus tracks featured on the second disc of the Deluxe Edition release of this album (ie: does NOT contain the original album, only the rarities associated with that release). Perfect for collectors who may have missed the double disc version or for those who are in search of all the great tracks that were initially exclusive to the Deluxe Edition. Rick James built on his late '70s/early '80s R&B chart success and poured everything he had into Street Songs, his fifth album for Motown. His hits from the album, 'Give It To Me Baby' and 'Super Freak,' were to dominate the charts for months. Just as the album was issued Rick, along with Teena Marie, did a mind-bending show in Long Beach, CA to promote the new LP. The band was hot, Rick was on top of the world, the audience went crazy. This 'Rarities Edition' brings you that incredible live show.
