Prince doesn't have a large enough body of work to get into the Rock & Roll hall of fame...

I actually heard a radio DJ on a classic rock station in Kansas City say this on his morning show. And I thought I couldn't hate radio any more than I already do...

Wasn't Prince that guy that only released about 3 or 4 albums, and had about 7 or 8 top 10 hits? What ever happened to him? neutral

Last I heard he released "The Most Beautiful Girl In The World" and disappeared in thin air. Again!

print out the list of released songs by Prince (it's in the "how many songs has prince recorded" thread), call the DJ, and ask him to let you fax it to him while your talking to him. If 651 released songs are not a large enough body of work plus at least 330 unreleased but confirmed tracks aren't a large enough body of work, just who does the DJ think has a large enough body of work? At 12 tracks an album, that works out to 54 albums worth of released material plus a minimum of 27 more albums of confirmed, but unreleased material.

well, technically, you COULD exclude everything he did as squiggle. But even then he's got more than enough output.

I don't think this DJ's brain is large enough to realize what he's talking about.

Whoever made the comment about P not having enough material to get into the hall of fame needs to put the glue down for a while. He\she needs some oxygen to the brain asap

Maybe not a large enough body, but body of work? Come on. Unfortunately, these are the types that do the voting, that is when their bosses let them make up their own minds. There are some exceptions I'm sure.... I hope. shrug

Yeah, apparently he goes to the same surgeon as Marilyn Manson. They both wanted to suck themselves off.
Personally . I think we are all Boring with No Lives cause all we do is talk about Prince,Criticize and Gossip. I need a Horny Man is what I Need and probably so do most of yas. We are Sexually Frustrated what we R... Amen..!!! - zelaire

Dumb-ass dj isnt the word! All dj's should be familiar with prince's "extensive" catalogue or stiffle their statements until they R. I've heard dj's incorrectly identify an artist they just had played a cd by. Uncool!
May the BELLS ring 4 U even when ur not in love. hug kisses
