I met them years ago at an album release appearance. They were stunning in person. JoJo always had the voice. The other ladies as beautiful as they are were in the group to create the “look” of a full singing ensemble. The label really should’ve just let JoJo have her solo deal since she was the only artist truly singing on the albums, backed by the legendary Water Sisters.
Rodney Love I agree! I think it’s because Jojo was the strongest vocalist in the group and from what I’ve learned through the years they used session background singers on their albums to enhance their sound. So live performances were few and far between. I still love them tho.
I couldn’t agree with you anymore! That combo made the group of you ask me. I loved that they had there own style like alter ego & you can even see it in the moves! Maxie was hittin’ it! This is around the time JoJo changed her style a little & to be honest she was hittin’ it too! Still Maxi will have you watching there videos & performances over & over just to see her move! Spirit is a beautiful thing how it can make us move & everything to other vibrations played by other spirits.
Stellar performance. Very underrated group. That leads voice is Something Else (Special).. They should have went further than they did ... During this period Motown put alot of Energy & Time into DeBarge (another great group).. But these girls should have gotten way more exposure and more material. Great song by a Great writer, Sir Rick (James) and these Ladies did Justice to it💖
Maxi was GETTING IT!! I Saw the Mary Jane Girls in concert at the Providence Civic Center with Rick James and the SOS Band. They were amazing. This was when Cheri was still in the group and All Night Long was a smash hit!
Ooooo ... I saw the tour date at the Hartford Civic Center! Jojo and Maxi turned them mfers out. And weed was so think, you'd get a contact high in 10 mins.
It doesn't matter , tbh the other 3 can sing and have lead on songs on each albums but could Jojo and the water sisters give us a stage performance like that!!!!! 🤔
@@DDot-im3jrout the 3 only Candi had potential on the song I betcha, the other two couldn’t sing worth a damn ..maxi was taking in leather queen..but they can dance though
Great footage and performance! Can't help but notice that the Stone City Band is looking more like Jesse Johnson's Revue and less like Rick James...and Jojo looks so great withOUT those moppy "Super Freak" braids!
By this time I guess she established herself as the lead singer. I feel like the braids were part of her character in the group. I do like this curly, side ponytail look too though. Someone could probably get away with that entire look today honestly.
Yeah how about that I wonder if Rick dressed them that way purposely to troll Prince & his Minneapolis crew after all stories would later come out about how Prince & Rick used to go at it & yes Jojo looking delicious right there!! She used to look so homely & unappealing with those braids & her dress choices when they were at their peak

Wow! This arrangement is EXTREMELY FAST. They still rocked it.
I am a black man and I must say the white lady can dance her ass off
One of the most talented and underrated female groups. Love it!!!
I’m forever a fan!!!
Wow.. this is one of the few truly live performances I've seen of the original Mary Jane Girls. Thanks for posting!

that's corvette tho she was a replacement.. cherie was the original
@@deronreed2945 right but she's still an original member of the MJG.... She recorded an album and toured with the group she's an original as of 2022
Amazing performance from the Mary Jane Girls. Never seen this before in all my years on RUclips. JoJo was on fire beginning to end.
Undeniable JoJo Voice Rythm Unmistakably Undeniably Showstopper Choreography Rythm Maxi Girl!

I love Maxi's psychedelic dance in this video. She sure has the speed. All of them are so adorable.
She probably got hold of some of Rick's stash. LOL

Yeah how about that
I wonder if Rick dressed them that way purposely to troll Prince & his Minneapolis crew after all stories would later come out about how Prince & Rick used to go at it
& yes Jojo looking delicious right there!!
She used to look so homely & unappealing with those braids & her dress choices when they were at their peak
now these are the mary jane girls !
Stone city band
The song was going a hundred miles an hour!! I love this song, but it was way too fast.
Notice they aren’t around anymore because they sang CandyMan 5 times?
Oh jeez, lol.
Show 👍🇧🇷
Family

Delicia the music 🎸🎵🇲🇽🇺🇸
Did they perform an entire concert that night? I would love to see that.
Look at Rick in the background
Show 🇧🇷💯 bom então 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
black disco super power 1986
I wonder was Rick there since the stone city band is backing up the Mary Jane girls
I love Cherri better then Corvette.
Yes! Cheri was prettier, cuter and sung better than Corvette.👍🏾
Cheri should've never left. Her song Jealousy on the first album is one of my favorites ❤
🎯 RUclipsr GATURKS says: Hot 🔥
I knew the relationship Prince had with Rick James…I wonder if Mary Jane Girls was created because Vanity 6 was🤔
Listen too Tommy licks? So nasty!
