Rock Hard In A Funky Place

I've heard many a horn line. And loved maney a horn line. I've always felt that this was one of the supurb appearances in a Prince song and I give Eric and Atlana MAD credit whenever I hear it. I LUUUURVE that horn line. And we had a monogamous relationship...























untill.....















I Heard Straight Cold Player by Lenny K. That song has a kissing cousin to Rock Hard's horn line and I SWEAR that Eric was in the studio with Lenny's horn player when that was recorded.

Does any1 else have similar sentiments about these two?

From the NPGMC chat with Eric in 2003:

Redbone: Hi Eric, Did you come up with the horn arrangement thats on "Rockhard In A Funky Place"? Peace!

ERIC LEEDS: Yes, Rockhard is mine. It's actually part of a composition of mine I played with my own group years ago called Pacemaker

Thanks 4 the quote. Someone shoulda asked him if he was in the studio w/ lenny...lol...j/k. And Pacemaker sounds sooooo apropriate for that way that line sounds.
