nomenclature blues

ok, so prince names his albums wrong. some artists, they teach their audience perspective. prince names his albums after songs or some silly thing instead. if hitnrun was called 'exercise music for a new age', would we be thinking he's frank zappa instead and would that change the whole tone of the org?

OP has a point here though.Prince has in recent years been extremely sloppy

with album titles.20ten and hinrun especially.

the impression one gets is that he doesn't care which is probably the truth.

an album called hitnrun after his "tour"sounds very unappealing.

"Purple manna for the masses".

Yeah but the daily search for something new to criticize may be getting a little intense.

Shouldn't we be saving something for those famine days at times of gargantuan feast?

I say we at least keep "Prince's CDs are too shiny" and "I hate that his booklets are almost always square" in a safe place.
