Are there any good Songs on 8 by Madhouse?


From Princevault: http://www.princevault.co...e=Album:_8

"8 is the first studio album by Madhouse, and was released in January 1987.


"All eight tracks were written or co-written by Prince, and all contain him playing most instruments, with Eric Leeds playing saxophone and flute. All tracks are given written numerical names, from One to Eight, while the album is named numerically. The album is the first instrumental album released by Prince under any name."

7 (opens with moans from Vanity (the ones used in Orgasm in 1994) the music is what the SOTT band borrowed for the solo piece ended by Sheila E's drum solo

In what scene?
.
Charlie Parkers Now's The Time is what the band solo is called, but it must be the inspiration for 7 because they sound alike

Yeah I think it is probably the best of the Madhouse records though 24/Eric Leeds' solo record is also decent (less funky tho).

Mainly I like Madhouse cuz Prince's drumming is really spectacular on it.

6 (End Of The World Mix) is dope. 8 is great too! I love the entire album (but 16 is my favorite).

Prince often played Four after The Ballad of Dorothy Parker. I love that combo.

This is a jazz album, yet accessible, yet interesting. I love the 8 and 16 albums, there's not a duff track.
