Cameo's initial offering is a refreshing, adventurous take on the P-Funk formula of butt-shaking, horn-heavy grooves, and socio-political humor. The single "Rigor Mortis" seems like a dead ringer for the P-Funk camp, but in reality it's a more mischievous ride through New York's discos and street scenes. The only thing working against them is the group feels little more than a raucous party machine with a goofy sense of humor, and it would remain to be seen how that would play out.
