2. really good
3. okay
4. fantastic
5. out of this world!

I Love U But I Don't Trust You Anymore
Strange But True
The Greatest Romance

That album is so overproduced and geared and being a commercial success...it really isn't Prince neutral

"Silly Game" - BLAH

Hell, I enjoyed track 4 better (the silent tribute to Miles Davis) smile

The highlights to me were "Prettyman," "Strange But True," and "ILUBIDTUA"

I agree with HaremZ, Rave seems to be way overproduced, almost to the point where i think i would've liked the original song much much more--like Prettyman. When P plays Prettyman live, i love that song for its raw and funky groove.
The album version--which is ironically my 2nd fav on the album--is overcooked. Now 'Manowar' is good the way it sounds on the album.
