André Cymone - Livin' In The New Wave **
















André Cymone is a Minneapolis bassist/producer. He has produced albums for Jody Watley, Adam Ant and was formerly a member of Prince's band. After leaving, he released his first solo album, 'Livin' In The New Wave' (1982) on Columbia Records.



The album is tasty 80s pop-funk with synthesizer and slap bass but overall is disappointing. A lot of the songs have nice riffs, however they occasionally fall short lyrically. If you're a fan of all things Prince related like me, you might want to pick it up. It's out of print and collectable. Otherwise you might want to stick with The Dance Electric.
