On this day in music history: August 11, 1982 - “Vanity 6”, the debut album by Vanity 6 is released I had this on Vinyl, Cassettee and now CD. Nasty Girl remains one of the GREATEST Prince songs!

If you listen the soundboard recording of the Vanity 6 set (which is still on YT) as an opener on Prince's 1999 tour (Radio City in March 1983), the music is trés Prince. At that particular show he removed The Time from the bill and rumor has it some still played for Vanity, but Prince joined in. Its amazing [Edited 8/11/16 15:56pm] Keep Calm & Listen To Prince | |

My older brother had this poster on his wall...I think. For some reason I remember Vanity posing differently, but the red dot in the background was there Make it so, Number One... | |

the Vanity 6 album was really ahead of its time.We had never seen a girl group like that before! The album features funk,New Wave,pop,even early rap ("If A Girl Answers....").One of Prince's most unique side projects. | |

Yesterday I was reading on Jeff Munsen's facebook page that, according to what Prince told Steve Parke, Vanity designed the 1999 album cover. He saw it in the basement at Paisley Park when he worked there. 3121... Don't U Wanna Come? | |

...as if Prince followed her in Heaven. They are together now and away from enablers, leeches, and vultures. This is my normal life. These marital standards cannot be recreated with money. | |

His descent 2 months after her is really interersting. Yes, they are together again.

Nasty Girl, The Glamorous Life, Love Bizarre, and The Screams of Passion. I hear all 4 on R&B radio and various nights when they play Funk music.

I always felt that Morris Day had a crush on Vanity. And I don't mean a "who wouldn't" crush, I always felt like he liked her. | |
