| good album
One of my favorite Teena M. albums. I have always loved Shadow Boxing and Midnight Magnet. One thing about Teena that's great - she composes and produces much of her own music. And her lyrics are interesting and not cheesy.

| Robbery: REMIXED, REMASTERED, and REMARKABLE!
Without a doubt, Teena put her heart, foot, and soul in this concept album. After listening to the torch ballads "Dear Lover" and "Cassanova Brown" alone, I became a bonafied Teena Marie fan for life. I have every Teena Marie CD in my music collection as a result of experiencing Teena's genius on this CD, and Robbery remains my all time favorite CD by her. If you don't have this CD, it's truly one must have that shouldn't remain overlooked.

| A Remixed Robbery!
This album appeared in 1983 after Teena Marie's infamous Motown lawsuit and is today as it was then, an R&B masterpiece. Opening with the urgent and desperate rock guitar-infused title cut, we, the listener, are taken on a musical journey of the stuff Soul Music is made of. Also included here for the first time are remixed and instrumental extended versions of the classic Dance joint, "Playboy," along with the extended version of the album's first hit single, "Fix It." If you're a lover of classic Old School R&B, then this is Old School to it's purest degree. If you're a newer fan of Lady Tee's music, this album, aside of her Motown catalog items is an excellent place to start. Her singing is superb (as it always is) and this is a woman that successfully writes, arranges, produces and performs nearly ALL of her material singlehandedly. No other woman (other than Angela Winbush) has been able to successfully do this and Teena Marie has danced circles around Winbush anyway. Marie is a pioneer of the original firsts of women producers of R&B music. NO ONE can EVER duplicate her sound nor even her success. Robbery is a MUST HAVE in any R&B lover's library of classic Old School Funk and balladry. 'Nuff said.

| Teena's grand endeavor
This was the first creative-control effort for Teena and is packed with the fruits of her labor. So many fab memories on this one, and so-o-o-o-o funky! This entire project is infectious so I will not bother with a "Faves" list. This is a good place to start though if you are looking to add her to your collection of 80's funk-filled jams and balladry.
