lol Kinda hard to answer when we dunno what the new album will sound like!

I think an album of ROCK music would be great guitar, but unfortunately Prince hasn't called to ask my advice. pout

It should be what he is best at, a hard-stompin' funk
extravaganza with relentless guitar piled on top of it.

no more mushy ballad or midtempo sing-along, just
get John to stomp the drums, renato to lay down a
handfull of salivating soundscapes and wavy noises
then strap on Habibi n make it roooaaaar.

headbang

yeah, but funkier, it needs a clean flat out funk stomp,
like days of wild, but perhaps a bit faster, with Prince
doing wild and crazy guitar licks all over the verses n
breaking into all greasy guitar madness for the solo.
