these guys played on the new album that the late great TEENA MARIE had just finished before she passed yhey also played with her live at many concerts and not forgetting the great rick james R.I.P to both of you xx
i have to go in garden house and look for gold. i knew that i by this record in the 80s, and not so much people arround me, who know this group.it was my personal favourit , after rick james. in german television , they give a rick james special in the verry early 80´s, that infected me for this kind of music. i was in the age of 14 i think..
@FireitupBedford What up Bedford,you probally don't remember me from that 1st Rick James website,I went by the screen name of Stone City. Man It's damn good to see you keeping Rick's legacy alive & goin,I hope Rick's family & friends as well as the rest of thje Stone City Citizens appreciate your efforts! Since then we lost quite of few icons,Edmund Sylvers,Teddy P.,Michael.Jackson.,Lena Horne,Gary Coleman just 2 name a few. Thank GOD my other idol(Stevie Wonder) is still with us.
@mrinnervisionz Oh yeah I remember you and the old site. Damn shame they took Ricks other site down. What's up playa long time I don't forget good people. Check out the Stone City Bands new website. it's theoriginalstonecityband dot com
@FireitupBedford Yeah it is a shame they took that site down,I wish they would get another site up & running. Whatever happen to the other Stone City citizens like Spaceylove,Ginamarie etc. Man I really appreaciate Rick james fans such as yourself for keeping Rick's legacy alive.
Fuck! I got a few tears in my eyes,damn Rick your fans mis you brother! Muthu-fuck these hypocritical squarz,if you ain't down with Rick James & The Stone City Band, then you just ain't down!!! Along with Stevie Wonder, Rick James is my idol & hero til i die!
No disrespect to you but you must don't know much about the Stone City Band> Are you kidding me (What is the White Boy doing there) I guess you don't know who that White Boy is so let me fill you in. That was Rick James main lead guitar player. Where do you think got some of his Rock sound from? Thats right from Tom McDermontt himself. Thats a bad MF when it comes to the lead guitar. I was blessed to have seen Rick 7 times and every show he let Tom do a solo every show. That MF was tight...
And trust me is was every bit a part of the Stone City Band as the rest of them were. From left to right: Levi Ruffin, Tom McDermontt, Danny LeMelle, Nate Hughes and LaMorris Payne....
my bad dog i was just sucking on a bottle when these motherfuckers were doing there thang. Having a white guitar player in a black band is cool, not like an arab or something.
No problem. When you get a chance go out and get Rick's 1982 DVD Live in Germany and you'll see what I mean about Tom. Now while your watching it, it will give you 1st hand account of what it was really like seeing a Rick James show Live. Rick was always alot wilder Live than her ever was on tv trust me. Total perfection...
These were some great guys. In 1983, right before their concert tour with Rick James, I was their personal trainer and used to go out to Rick's house every day to whip them into shape. They all welcomed me and became friends. I have a copy of this album on my wall that they all signed the day they left for their tour. Very cool.
@thomas1990287 If you go back and look at old school albums back in the 70's and 80's there were tons of integrated bands. But Rick's bands including Mary Jane Girls had Maxi. Rick played with Neil Young. I love music bruh. But yes. Dazz Band, The Time, don't even bring up the Average White Band. Prince was probably the most integrated. Right @thomas1990287 ?
Line up: The Stone City Band & Slave They are also working on getting other artist. So go on out and show some love for Rick James (Stone City Band)trust me you won't be disappointed
