1. Scritti Politti never recorded at Paisley Park. Their keyboard player David Gamson did, while producing Tony LeMans album in 1989 or so.

2. Green Gartside did not write or produce "Good Love" lol. It's definitely possible that they influenced Prince to write that song, but their production style on "Cupid & Psyche '85" was largely influenced by the Minneapolis Sound in the FIRST place.

I like Scritti Politti, damn i have not listened to them in a long time.

...scritti politti and prince.....

.

.

that just about sums up 1984 in a nutshell for me...god i played both of them to death that year...

.

I loved Scritti, the 12inch's and b-sides (called "versions") from Cupid & Psyche '85 were bloody brilliant.

Songs To Remember was a tasty wee album too.

I lost a lot of interest in them after C&P'85 though.

"Good love" does sound inspired by Scritti's then sound (or David Gamsons sound), but other then that the only known connection is Tony Lemans.

I love "good love" though.

FACTS: Scritti Politti sold nothing to Prince, recorded nothing at Paisley Park and Good Love had nothing to do with Green Gartside or David Gamson. Gamson indeed produced Tony LeMans but there was absolutely no musical collaboration between him and Prince on this album or anything else as far as we know.

FACTS: Writing in capital letters without periods, commas and question marks is boring for others to read, and makes you look/sound like a mentally retarded person.

Thanks

Just for your information, my has Down's Syndrome, so the fact their is no punctuation is totally insignificant. Maybe the next time you call someone a mentally retarded person, you might want to think of others reading the post!/10/11 11:17am]

HOW ABOUT USING THE TERM DATABANK INSTEAD OF THE R-WORD

LIKE HOW I USED ALL CAPITAL LETTERS AND NO PERIODS OR COMMAS OR QUESTION MARKS

I don't understand anything about people answering me then editing everything they said before I could read it, neither do I understand people claiming they are their own son

What I know is that people need to speak properly online, because the internet is no excuse for talking shit. And in the EXCEPTIONAL case in which someone has a whatever syndrome, then I'm sorry but everyday we have freaks who have no syndrome posting here saying things like "HEY GUYS DID YOU KNOW THAT PRINCE USED TO CHEW SHOES THIS IS SO WEIRD WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS AND I'D ALSO LOVE TO KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF TERENCE TRENT D'ARBY I LOVE THE BEATLES AND LOLLYPOPS ALSO", well, u know what I mean...

Peace
