The Time - Jerk Out (Live On The Arsenio Hall Show) 

2 years late & i just repeated what you said! Our era was the combo package; had to play instrument sing & dance to choreography. As much as I dug 70s Ohio Players, EWF...The Time was in a league by themselves.

They were the best band period. Hands down over all

+Andrea Llewellyn you know what you're talking about.... it's the pleasure principal ooohh ohhhh.....ohhhh ohhhhhh.....

Jesse wasn't too shabby on guitar too

They were good but Prince was Great .He was always changing his style ,he saw the future

@@VeiLofCognition the way written by Monte Mohr

Especially on I DONT WANNA LEAVE U their 2nd Album

Agreed

😮 Jesus lawd...SMH... Unreal!

You right. I have the dvd when they are in Minneapolis in 82. Vanity and the time on one disc and prince on the other. I had it for about 9 years and i still never finished prince's set. I only watched vanity and the time.

Only players and real macks can understand them

+cgulljb ravi Where'd i put them keys to the whip.....Jerome!!

LMBO! That's Funny..But True He Played a Mean Mirror!

luckycharms7able YAAAASSSSSS

Yes Sir !

Damn Right...This is how its done! Real music from real musicians! Prince created a musical Frankenstein that got out of control... Lol...😄

koden24 - so true, because they were actually kicking ass in there concerts

Prince however was the master mind so you cant dismiss him at all...in fact praise him

well prince wrote all there music .goes 2 show u how funky he was

@@slickgee Yeah, Prince was the puppetmaster for The Time although they were great in their own right as well.

Tru dat!

FACTS

True

Hallelujah!!!

Kevin Lewis the hip-hop ideology destroyed the incentive to master instruments and music. Once you could make big money by sampling and not having any musical talent, you had little to no reason to acquire the skills that were once necessary to be in the industry. Jesse said that he is happy that he hit the scene at a time where you really had to know how to play in order to be in the industry. The Time was real.

@@UNDFTDGordon Well I definitely appreciate your feedback but unfortunately you're point is misguided and uninformed. I just happen to be from the Hip Hop generation and I really frown on the ignorance of those who try to blame my culture for everything negative going on in the world it's either we're stealing everyone's music and dont have any talent of our own or we're inticing and influencing people to kill each other nevermind the fact people stole music(Led Zepplin stayed stealin people's ideas) WAY before Hip Hop was even conceived(not saying we steal music in hip hop) or that people kill each other all the time why blame rap? What people like you fail to realize(or at least you seem to based on your statements) is that Hip Hop was born out of deprivation, the school systems had a prevalent music program at one time in the past, when THAT dried up kids had no choice but to create with what they had laying around their environment that may have been some dusty Old records or some spray paint or whatever but the spirit behind what we did was always to create not destroy. Now in this modern day yes the music making process has been simplified BUT that does not mean talent is not required I challenge ANY studio session musician to put down their instruments and attempt to program a sampler and make it funky, it's not easy. You contridict yourself because sampling wasn't even done by hip hoppers first it was done by "musicians" great musicians like Stevie and Prince who also used beat machines and various other gear that basically replaced acoustic instruments but THAT'S ok right? Please understand I am NOT a fan of "today's" rap I think the majority of it is garbage, I am from The Golden Era of Hip Hop where TALENT was a necessity but at no point did sampling destroy anything because it's an art within itself, we used records as our "band" because we couldn't afford instruments but we didnt just use the records we CREATED a science and a technique the turntable became the instrument Sir so please educate yourself on the origins of the culture before you slam it and if you're already hip to what it's about and you just dont like it thats fine too but don't perpetuate myths and untruths because Hip Hop is a beautiful thing it just fell into the wrong hands and got perverted misguided and exploited... The way you SHOULD be looking at it is we bring alot of dead music back to life also, because we incorporate ANY genre of music we end up learning about artists and types of music we'd NEVER have heard of if we hadn't tried to sample them so basically we become more musically knowledgeable based on this for example, I never heard of Charlie Mingus until I tried to sample his stuff after which I grew an interest in the upright bass and wanted to learn more about it. So please dont blame Hip Hop for the decline in musicianship because there are EDM producers Pop music producers etc etc all of whom use computers to make their music with not one "real" instrument in sight are they also culpable in the destruction of traditional music making??? I think not.....Life is about phases dude, that acoustic funk will make it's way back around again, eventually.

Kevin Lewis Thanks for the story but you're wrong.

@@UNDFTDGordon nah, you're just buggin out, but Im done with it tho so peace out.

Yeah nice biography on making excuses about how f c ked up the music really is today. Hope the youngsta comes to his good senses after learning to appreciate the REAL music but for a lot of ones like him, it’s “gonna take a miracle “ 🎼.that song is by By Denice Williams in case he doesn’t know. Lol

+Zelma1348 Back in 1982.

Zelma1348 Yes indeed

The Tiime's first two albums were all Prince with Morris on drums and most of that was written in the early 1980s and maybe even the late 1970s but Prince didn't want to release the music himself.

Not at all....not even a little bit.

Santino Castillo agreed.

Exactly!!! Your suit is not suppose to fit like a super heroes costume.

Sadly it's sign of the times I mean you have people going to the store and restaurants in pajamas these days

@@rockwolf7777 Hahaha! So true.

@@hgonz14 So true. Sad 😞

Yea, it sounded like something died

YES! Real music and we danced while playing and singing! Yeah our generation was the best. Paak & Mars did bring it back . Finally!

That’s funny since Prince co-wrote the song they are singing

They were all basically Prince's employees

​@puck349 just like Prince was basically Warner Bros employee

+rahsaan hill Jesse Johnson is playing a left-handed strat upside down lol

ONE OF THE BADDEST BASSISTS ....EVER..IN MY OPINION.... & Jesse Johnson is def a electric Guitar Mystro

That's why Prince went back home and got them. He only deals with quality like himself.

but remember Prince kicked them off his tour because they were killing it.

Prince wrote and produced this song!

MoneyOverFame Jamie Starr. This is 98% Prince.

@@blueser100 absolutely!

James Pearson Prince wrote and produced MOST of their music. Pandemonium is the only album they had a good amount of credit on. Ice Cream Castles they had some but "The Time" and "What Time is it?" was all Prince

James Pearson Prince did have alot of these songs as demos, this being one and Chocolate.

This is Prince' s band ... Prince AKA Jamie Starr producer for the time ...wow I can't believe you did not know this fact

Some of the songs were co-written, I think with Morris Day, but Prince produced all of them.

James Pearson yup prince feared them that's why he kicked them off his tour

Jazzy M , I saw them at the Dorton Arena, in Raleigh, NC on March 12, 1982. They were pure 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! I saw them again in November of 1982, in Hampton, VA. Simply superb!

They always understood the assignment🤗👍lovem

@@hlcotten6587 the original 7

🙏

Too CcccOooOooLlll!

You see why Prince was saying damn when he had to follow that 😂

+soulburst Wow, they didn't give Monte any camera time!

soulburst Don't forget Jesse Johnson

Go 'head Monte❤!

Willie Hubbart Ikr! They was wrong for that!! Lol

soulburst Monte moir wasn't playing with your punk ass! He came to play! Not u per say Soulburst lol (speaking in general) lol

Prince was a disciple of all those you mentioned- 🎶 *The Purveyor of Purple Funk* 🎶

80's this was there only song from the 90's

They are the best at what they do

They are the best at what they do

They are the best at what they do9o1

What the hell does that mean? So other black lives don't matter you piece of trash

@Jonathan Murphy The group black lives matter sure don't matter, you POS.

southern cali yes

I’m thinking before.

@@danzbmw Janet's Albums were already burning the charts, along with Herb Alpert, Human league, SOS Band etc...
