"Is there a Rick James box set collection?"


          

I got a few of his albums but I'd like own all of his albums; albums like Wonderful and Glow. But I'd like to just buy all of them. Anybody know if he's got a box set collection?

with David Ritz liner notes which were on point
and then the other double set which had the long extended version of "standing on the top the full remix.

Motown does crack head crap like that put this version out and then that one as to it all out at once.

I was thinking that Motown had since rereleased albums like Wonderful or The Flag. Like a whole box set of all of his albums.

I forgot that by Wonderful, Rick had left Motown and moved onto Warner Brothers. Wonderful is a great album on it's own merit in my opinion.

however once he was in the joint he had the Mob handling his publishing and in the past decade songs been licensed to Old Navy and other outlets that are used for your local shops at the mall.

Rick had his demons and tripped out a whole lot, however not only did he keep the lights on at Motown, he also helped R&B Music out big time and he kept the funk going.

he didn't water his thing done to be more accessible.

living through that era when Black Artists hitting and making it big as they do now was a once at a time situation.

he was royality in Buffalo.

if he was White he would have been 3 times as big, because he had the whole nine as a ROck Star the talent, music and the charisma.
