CJ and Company was a neighborhood success story in my town of Detroit, Michigan. When I was sixteen, Charles Clark gave me my first proffessional gig as a Conga Player for CJ and Company; we did 1 gig at a VFW Hall then we were slated to open for the P-Funk and I didn't get a call for that gig, but I DID get the gig with P-Funk directly after. THANK YOU CHARLES CLARK!!! Thank You WESTBOUND!!!

Both of these songs were the absolute bomb baby.. I was about 13 yrs old and "clubbing" for me at that age was the jam in the park, these 2 songs were definitely featured tunes.

Listen, DEVILS GUN had such a fantastic introduction. It was perfect to long blend mix. Set them up, and let them play. It had such energy, such fantastic rhythm that it was a DISCO CLASSIC even before I was through playing it. Fantastic record for re-mixing, excellent Dance song! WE GOT OUR OWN THING was also an excellent DISCO CLASSIC. I used to play both these songs back-to-back, with some other song as a buffer. I loved this album. An easy TEN on my scale from 1-10.
