WOWEE WOW!!! Simply AWESOME!!! That little lady was a powerhouse of talent!! She composed, arranged (harder than composing), produced, sang lead, sang backup, played several instruments, recorded, and as we can see, PERFORMED the HELL outta whatever she touched. Thank you for posting!!!
I wish someone would post this whole concert. I surely can't understand why you would chop up what you do have posted here. It makes no sense at all...
Awesome! I have ALWAYS wanted to see Teena & Rick performing this from back in the day, so glad to have found this! Thank you so much for posting this! LOVE Teena and Rick, so talented, the both of them. Music soul mates
@patriciacarrasco You are correct my friend. It was on Rick James Street Songs lp that cam out in 81 the right after that Teena Marie came out with It Must Be Magic ft. the hit Square Biz which was in 81 as well.
Sadly i was looking for something else and saw a headline about teena marie`s memorial...i did not know this beautiful voice was gone until 2 minutes ago...i`m a truck driver so i don`t always know whats going on in the world but this is very sad news...My mom is 62 yrs old and has only seen 1 live concert in her life and that was Rick James and Teena Marie at the Greensboro Colusium 1981..Greensboro.N.C...
@fredquick21 You were really lucky to have seen her and Rick back then. I remember when they first came to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1981. My cousins went to see them back then. I wanted to go sooo badly. They were so good that w/in a couple of months, they were back by popular demand. I missed that one too. I never got to see Lady T in concert.
teena and ricks were 2 ppl that lived life to the fullest...and it will never be anybody that can just replace the words that they wrote or they sound that they had.
Wow... Both Rick and Teena were so talented. I was lucky to see Lady T two times in Boston. She never came back which I wish she did. So underated in the industry and this women could sing, write and perform. No other female will ever match what Teena Marie did and how powerful her vocal range is.. RIP my little angel. You are missed and will never be forgotten in your fans hearts... :( Gone way to soon!!!
They have to have been the steamiest duet in the history of music. They had so much history and remained so close, that every song they did together, and sometimes separately, had very special meaning for them.
Wow! I have never seen this footage before! Been waiting since '81 to see this concert footage of Rick and Teena in Long Beach. Maybe someday we'll get to see the show in its entirety. The loss of Teena and Rick is very hard to take...
I find it very hard to believe that BOTH OF THEM are gone...just incredible.

@roscoegino she had the skin. It's the one that God gave her. She was a true talent that I feel was not recognized enough in her time.
