I hate to admit it, I really dug that track.

It was great, but was that about 5 mins worth of wind at the end?

thats what I was thinkin'! (princeiscool having Wizard of Oz flashbacks)

so what other P songs does it sound like?
the funk jams on ONALive or more Xpectation-esque?

Joshy said:

Xpectation. This sounds like a sequel. It's also been dubbed "New Directions In Music". Great though. Can't wait to hear the rest ... AND get the disc.

Gotta admit, I'm underwhelmed. It's like Xpectation but LESS focused. It's fine but nothing I would go back to more than a couple of times. I'm not opposed to listening to improvisations like these but I would hope that at least something interesting happens in the duration. So far, not so.

Xpectation is an album i put on 2 relax 2...just chill2...
& where i just let it all flow.

if NEWS is like that...it's not a bad thing.

i got my prince jams...i also want something 2 mellow out 2,& the recent jazzy slowjams have been just that

Did U have 2 fill this form with all ur details (shipping address, etc.)?
I thought they have them all since we are members of the club...

I will admit it has the expectation feel.. but I'm gonna hope that this album is very eclectic and not on the same track as expectation..


but hey, Track one is a good one so far.

I had to register as a new shopper, too. But it is a new company -- Music Today.com. I don't know anything about them. I thought they would've been able to import our info from Gage, but I guess not.

North is cool. Can't wait for the rest to hear.

Art.

i wish i had a faster connection than 56 k...but some of us r poor i like what i have heard so far...even though it keeps chopping out on me!!!
i think the price is actually pretty good! even though its almost as much for shipping (international) i don't mind (after all that ain't P's fault)...
so all 2 u naysayers...well I think this year has been a vast improvement...now all we need is some real funk!!! just like the old days...except NEW STUFF!!! jazzy vibe is cool an all...but I need me some more wild stuff...u think P still has it in him?

I guess the new company has more experience in shipping items. I think it will work better this way.

By the way there are about 3 minutes of wind at the end of North. that's a bit too much hehe !!!

Vincent,
agreed, but maybe it´s because of the 14:00 minutes each, just to show he doesn´t prefer one of the orientations

But it's 14:51, and at the very end there is nothing, not even wind.

Mad isn't it? No one can tell me that it costs $9 to post a CD. I've sent far bigger and heavier items from Europe to the US for half that price.

Right, wondered about that!
I suspect the difference to the official announcement has something to do with the download. As you said calldapplwondery83 in the end there´s nothing.

it is true, too much wind sounds at the end, quite unnecessary if you ask me

Oh c'mon ya'll!!! Prince is just listening to the fans...

Everyone kept saying if he farted on a snare drum people would buy it...so he did.

I must say 3-5 minutes of wind is very impressive...I've heard a vegitarian diet will give you that kind of power.

LOL!

How could you end North without a great Northern wind?

garganta said:

Maybe the wind has to do with segues from one track to another... Wind that takes you to one direction to another...
