Hide The Bone Appreciation

Ok, I might be going out on a limb here, it's not one his most loved songs, but I think this is a hidden gem with a heavy beat that mixes rock and funk very well.

The lyrics, or part of, are written by Brenda Lee Eager & Hilliard Wilson.
They also co-wrote Somebody's Somebody & The Holy River if I'm not mistaken.
Brenda Lee Eager is an experienced background vocalist, this is all I know.

One of the standout tracks on Crystal Ball. I'd love to hear him do it live now just as hard and funky as on the CD.

When eye go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all heart up in the house but when eye log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming!

Another song that could have been a hit for him. Prince SUCKS at choosing singles! lol
Ive always said that crystal ball contained enough material to make ONE great album, and this was one of the songs that would have made the list!

It's definitely one of those grooves that carries an obligation to be played loud. One of my favorites on Crystal Ball.
