Q
Submitted by dr™ on May 11, 2010 - 11:00pm.This past Friday, I had the pleasure of meeting a true synthpop star, Stacey Q. She made an appearance at The Chase's 2 Yr. Anniversary at Chop Suey in Little Tokyo here in LA. Luckily my friend told me that she usually does a meet and greet, so I made a point of bringing along a couple of her records which she graciously personalized. At 51 years old, she's going strong with a new CD, Color Me Cinnamon, and she's still got the energy to rock a crowd. While I didn't get to hear any beloved SSQ tracks, and her set was ridiculously abbreviated (2 songs...really?), getting to say hi and hearing her sing her big hit made my night.
Here's a few rarities from her distant past before you seek out her new material.
SSQ - Fire
Somewhat cheesy Jimi Hendrix cover. Move over Rover, and let Stacey take over!
SSQ - Playback
From the Enigma Variations comp, which is strangely not on the SSQ album of the same name.
