Teena's debut, 'Wild and Peaceful', came out on Gordy in 1979.
Coyote Rick humbly responds: Sorry, Denknee, was just reporting what I was told by a docent at the Motown Museum in Detroit. On your knowledge, I certainly stand corrected and will never repeat that comment again. I appreciated both Gore and Dee's music in its time as well as Teena's. But, were the same docent and I right about Rare Earth? PS: As a newbie to posting - don't forget the NJC in the subject line when your post doesn't pertain to Joni.
