by Alex HendersonTeena Marie's second album, Lady T, found her working with producer Richard Rudolph, husband of the late Minnie Riperton. Though not as strong as Wild and Peaceful, this decent but not essential release had many strong points and offered much evidence that she was a soul goddess to be reckoned with. The single "Behind the Groove" is a funk smoker, and "Could It Be Love" and "Aladdin's Lamb" show how charming Marie can be. Rick James' influence could still be felt, though it was clear that Marie had many impressive ideas of her own. Unlike Wild and Peaceful, Lady T showed Marie's picture on the front cover -- many of the fans she'd acquired were shocked to see that she was white.
