"I too, was a fan of this group. "Why Did You Run Away", was one
of the better freestyle songs in local airplay during it's time. I took them for granted a little bit, and now I regret never buying their greatest hits CD, figuring I would pick it up another day. About 10 years later...... I am still looking
to find their greatest hits CD. I can still remember seeing
them play at Casanova's in Hialeah. Suerte!"

5 Stars? Let me explain...

"Why 5 stars? While a vast majority of the populace has probably never even heard of Secret Society, I hold the band close to my heart for several reasons. First, they were a Miami phenomenon during the Freestyle years which occurred in my late teens and early twenty. These hometown boys were, for a short time, appearing absolutely everywhere in the south Florida club scene. These were the days before South Beach became the nightlife Mecca it is now, and cruising The Grove (check it for those who know) was at the peak of popularity. To my knowledge, only the (ever changing) duo Lime was more ubiquitous. Second, here was a local band that mixed dance music with New Wave, and threw in a little Latin-culture-afro-Cuban influence into their musical Cuisinart. An outstanding and novel feat for a group of this kind during this relatively short-lived musical movement. From Cuban-Jazz jams like "Da Boyz with Da New Look" to impeccable ballads like "Too Blind to See", with a sax riff as memorable as the one from Geroge Michael's "I'm never Gonna Dance Again" (heady praise indeed), this band had a style, a flair, and a range rarely seen today."
