Rockberry Jam
You’re just gonna have to indulge me a bit here, as I rifle through my hundreds of albums and cassettes, and get nostalgic about the music of yesteryear. I’m not sure if the words “Where the hell is my Georgio album?” have ever been uttered before, but they were last night! Don’t worry, I’ll track it down.
But another 80’s gem I uncovered last night was the L.A. Dream Team‘s 1986 album (okay, tape), Kings of the West Coast. Rudy Pardee and Chris Wilson were an L.A. area duo who were one of the first to marry up electronic music with rapping. Others around that era were the Egyptian Lover and World Class Wreckin’ Cru (Dr. Dre was a member).
One of my favorites from the album is this side two standout track featuring the smooth and sultry “Miss Rockberry”.

I worked with him and went ot his funeral and he had no children. You sure your boyfriend is telling the truth?
Talk to ihs old partner. This is his real site and will answer. I contacted him in the past regarding Rudy. You do know pardee was not his real last name? There are allot of scammers out there.
Here is his contact ..
