The O'jays great production. Ship ahoy has strings making the sound of slave ships, I guess you could say they took a white man's instrument and made it black.
[Edited 4/10/05 11:37am] You said a mouthful there. Ship ahoy is a great example. That song is as hard as they come!! Btw, I LOVE me some Clair Fisher.  Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |

"Alexa de Paris", "Venus de Milo", etc. are "pretty" songs and extremely boring. I'm not a fan of those 2 instrumentals either but Mr.Fischer's work for the main part is a delight and adds a certain charm and freshness to Prince's work , the Parade album would only be half as enchanting without his strings , I think Prince's work became a lot more beautiful from 1986 onwards because of Clare's input . Check out Chocadelica , updated with Lotusflow3r and MPLSound album lyrics April 2nd 2009 :

So, at a concert you hit the bar during Purple Rain, Adore, Do Me Baby? Don't think so. Clare's Orchestration has brought only good things. Thank u. | |
