Teena Marie Beautiful
I remember the first time I heard Teena Marie, it was the summer of 86 and I had a nice summer job. Without going into details of the job, it was in a small kitchen, and I used to bring tapes in to play. Anyway one Monday, I brought in a Motown compilation cassette that I had purchased at Woolworths.
