EURWeb reports today that the late Teena Marie will be featured on “Ball and Chain,” a bonus cut on the upcoming George Duke project, Dream Weaver. It will be the second posthumous work issued by Teena, following the Beautiful album that was released earlier this year. Ironically, this will be the first release by Duke since the death of his wife, Corine.
Said Duke to EUR’s Lee Bailey, “Before Teena Marie died, I was working on a jazz record with her. It was outside of her contract and we were gonna do a jazz record together in her own style. She was writing all the music. We got a chance to record one song before she passed. She was gonna redo it but you know Teena is the kind of lady that she just went for it. When she sang she doesn’t half do it. She went for it. She sounded great.”
