Ingrid Chavez My local mom and pops just helped me get "May 19,1992"...
I forgot how much I loved this album. In the 90's I had the cassettte. But when I got rid of all my tapes----->(don't do this).. I did'nt realize this would be one I would desperately search for later on. Now that I have the cd...It all seems new. "Heaven Must Be Near" has been on heavy rotation for the past week. "like the rain on a hollow day"..... "clap your hands,stomp your feet!" next up:::::"Hippy Blood" any thoughts on this one? p.s. Is this the voice/vox, that would later appear on the Rainbow Children? my phone is heavy | |

i've always had a soft spot for this album, just cuz it had such a different feel from everything else that ever came out on paisley park records. not that it was a GREAT album, just somewhat unique. "heaven must be near" is nice, though... | |

@ 6:08-"hit it"...that's when you know "he" was involved. I'm liking this album,because I know Prince was involved more than he wanted to be. my phone is heavy | |

I agree.This CD was a pleasant surprise.It's very trippy,moody and hypnotic.Not your typical 90s pop album. | |

I'm learning more about this album,the second time around. wondered but never knew what the title meant.. "the title is the first anniversary of the date the cover art was photographed" -wikipedia btw,it contains several pieces of beautiful artwork. I think it's worth having for "Heaven Must Be Near" and "Elephant Box" alone. my phone is heavy | |

It's a great album, and a testament that a project can benefit from Prince not having all-consuming control over it. | |

This and the Jill Jones album were the only two great associated artist albums that came out of Paisley Park
JMHO of course | |

I've never heard the album myself, but I just watched the youtube
Elephant Box.....very different, no singing involved....but hypnotic, like SoulAlive mentioned. Is Heaven Must Be Near on the same order? Is there any singing involved? | |

I'm listening to "Elephant Box 7". It's so different from the original mix. "Heaven Must Be Near" has lyrics. It's very ethereal..Beautiful,leading into a hypnotic mix. It actually flows into "Hippy Blood" really well. "real" [Edited 5/18/08 19:49pm] my phone is heavy | |

I went digging in my collection and here's my Ingrid items.
the "Elephant Box" cd single is what sent me searching. Anyone got any of this on vinyl? I had the cassette,..damn! "Hippy Blood" was a good song,but would'nt 8 versions of "HMBN" had made more sense? *great comments* my phone is heavy | |

"Slappy Dappy" is the song that would have made the "BatMan" soundtrack perfect. my phone is heavy | |

One of the best paisley albums.
the first listen i took made me wonder what it would sound like if she would get involved with david sylvian, and gues what a short while after she married him. The remixes are great. Specialy the mixes of heaven must be near (released as a promo 12". It was her 2nd album shyfish was released on a cassette just before she got prince his interest and its also a verry interesting piece of art. just go and enjoy LechovitZ | |

they were and did some colaborations together, some on an album by sakamoto and some on the dead bees on a cake album.There was even a double single for i surrender containing two tracks with just ingrid on vocals. b.t.w. they are no longer together.
