After the previous, rather lackluster effort, Cameo begins to stake out their own identity amongst the backdrop of the ever-formless contemporary 1980's R&B scene. However, the material feels better suited for late-night dance floors and/or chill-downs with no obvious hits, and the inclusion of "Tribute to Bob Marley" turns out to be a languid, bloated thing that should have been left on the cutting floor.

This is the kind of dumb schlocky horror I like to see which this show all too often failed to deliver!

After years of releasing albums which had more in common with P-Funk and Rick James, this record sees Cameo exploring Prince's new wave-edged sound, along with going down from 11 to 5 members. Tracks like "Soul Army" retain much of the personality from the previous albums, though. Another decent effort.

The cover and title matches the lavish sounds inside, as Cameo continued to deftly bridge the transition between excesses of the 70's and the more streamlined and tech-obsessed 80's.

Cameo albums were being released at a furious pace by now, as Feel Me was not even six months after Cameosis. Their slick R&B sound is further refined and processed, with bits of some of this stuff pointing to their eventual mid-80's works (especially "Your Love Takes Me Out"). The mid-tempo banger "Keep It Hot" was a big R&B hit.
