1985 wow, i was only 15 years old. Wow years have gone by so fast. Heard this song got up and danced my ass off in my kitchen floor. Love it. thanks for putting up this song.
I have been looking for this for YEARS. But I thought it was blackberry jam! Then it hit me like 5 mins ago that its ROCKberry Jam. Hell it's been a good 26 years...anyway found it as soon as I remembered the right lyrics. Thanks for posting this! Memories of Jr. High School dances in Southern Cali...ahhh.
When I heard LA Dream Team as a kid, when the hip hop scene was still pretty new, I felt back then, at 6 years old, that this shit was wack... And it is just as wack as I remembered.
I seeing deam team, toddi tee nad i forget who else at the LA forum around 1985 with the homies from Compton CA, Largo block good ole days with good ole music.
Thank you for posting! I haven't heard this since it was always on the radio...at night on KBUZ (the then R&B station in Wichita, KS) back in 1985. Thank you for uncovering what was the mystery artist(s)!
This is bringin back memories of junior high school dances at Juan Crespi in Richmond, CA and dances at Maple Hall in San Pablo......woooooooooow this is throwback!
i kinda like this era of west coast hip hop cuz i mean yeaa it aint nwa or eazy but i mean its so eazy to relax to i mean in the early 80s it was just dancin and mackin to girls wit big hoop earrings and nappy hair <3. even if the gangs were still around they left tht shit off the waxx
@mrcash193 When this came out, West Coast gang banging wasn't even that big of a deal because there were no Crack Heads to sell dope too, at least not in the numbers that would be in the late 80's. Most people that you grew up with that were in gangs you could still be cool with in high school. The shit has just gotten too ridiculous over the last 20 years.
I totally remember seeing these guys with the EGYPTION LOVER....DAMN !!! they were the music to be listening to....they played at th SANTA ANA BOWL FOOTBALL STADIUM!!! wwwoooooooo!!!! back in the days!!!!!! SO MUCH FUN!!!!
How time flies! In the early 80's In my 73 cougar always on 1580 KDAY on my way to work and home from work going from Imperial Hwy to the 405 Fwy to West L.A. a good 20 mile drive bumping West Coast music.
DAM ....i love being a california girl...we had all the jams back then ! wow i realy used to get down pop locking !! i miis those days...and hey the ole egyption lover was considerd under ground then..he was the shit too...wat about dj unknown..he was rockn too..
When I listen to this music now after all this time, I realise how powerful it was in influencing what came afterwards - everything from Techno - to Acid House, all the bass lines and sound are in this music!
Ah, brings back happy memories. As a teenager, I thought this was the coolest, most futuristic thing, LOL. I think I had this on one of Morgan Khan's Streetsounds compilations. N.Y. vs. L.A. Beats -- I think. I'm older now, and exact memory eludes me...oh yeah, of course, all those references to West Coast acts, Unknown DJ, Egyptian Lover, all favourites of mine. I think now it must have been that album, compiled by Mike Allen. If you're not in the UK, you may not know what I'm talking about ;-)
HOLY SHIT! I've found a lot of old school songs here on youtube but I totally forgot about this one. This is too freakin' AWESOME! Thank you so much for posting this one!
Why am I doing the Smurf, Shackles, Pac Man and Rockberry? This is good music. Thanks for the post. I need to find my old cassettes from back in the day!
@martymall007 lol not me, snake & rudy (he was a manager) was workin at Wendy's Hamburgers in Gardena, when they recorded this......they female vocal on the track was Snake's gilfriend....she worked drive-thru lmao!!!
This is a bicked joint. The ramposity of it! I remember hearing this for the first time back in 85 when the I was trouty over Nadine Trepper back in Artesia. Old Billy Mohats came bodypoppin' down the Alundra Blvd and span like a Marmoset on a pipe with his creeeeeezy hair!
Glad you all like the song HOWEVER I've never heard of this song till someone asked me to post it...I'm from Jersey and we didn't listen to this type of music....Glad you all like it though...
Love the old west coast stuff! I was on holiday in Bournemouth when this little gem came out. I remember carrying my big stereo all the way to Mudeford. Classic intro!
nice jam you wanna hear a mix with this song and more check out dj2lio old school funk mix you can download his mixes too for free 40 minute mix ,planet patrol,egypt its worth your time check it out.
