i've not heard rebirth of the flesh but for it to be funkier than le grind would be a major achievement. NOt even 'eye no' is as funky as that.
I'm testing postive 4 the funk

Apart from the intro Le Grind blows. Eye No I don't find particularly funky. Rebirth Of the Flesh kicks both their asses.

Camille is definitely the better "album".

Le Grind and Eye No both have absolutely incredible bass playing on them, which I think puts them together in the same category.

Until I hear rebirth of the flesh I obviously cannot comment. But clearly Le grind does not blow.

Camille's got that crazy funk, so I'd have to go with that. "Rebirth of the Flesh" is just a jam, period. "Le Grind" could barely keep up...

The original Camille project contained the following songs:

- Rebirth Of The Flesh
- Housequake
- Strange Relationship
- Feel U Up
- Shockadelica
- Good Love
- If I Was Your Girlfriend
- Rock Hard In A Funky Place

I think that would make a kick ass album, regardless of how weak I think The Black Album is.

Camille is the funkiest album not to be released, but I've made my own with great outakes and extended versions. The album bangs especially Rebirth of the Flesh, Goodlove and Shockadelica. Feel U Up. Awww hell the whole is funky

How about all those cuts on one album!

"Rebirth of the Flesh vs Le Grind"... I listen to both quite a bit... but I'd have to say Le Grind... but the rehearsal for Rebirth is MIGHTY.

"Housequake vs Cindy C" - easily Housequake

"Strange Relationship vs Dead On It" - I'd have to say that the slick guitar work in Dead On It is far funkier then anything in Strange Relationship

"Feel U Up vs When 2 R In Love" - Feel U Up is that old school prince funk

"Shockadelica vs Bob George" - I love both of these, I think Bob George is intensely creative, and I think that following "I'll kick yo ass", Bob George becomes way funkier in its last few seconds.

Good Love vs Superfunkicalifragisexi - I prefer Superfunky because if its dark flavor, and that low bass synth is just kind of rolling and growling under the beat and wah wah wonka guitar.

If I Was Your Girlfriend vs 2 Nigs United 4 West Compton - 2 Nigs is the thickest slab of funky stuff... the bass solo is like an anaconda.

Rockhard In A Funky Place vs Rockhard In A Funky Place - would the camile version have the false fade out of the black album?

and it only clocks in at about 72mins. if prince/wb so desired they could release it on a single disc. or just release them individually as intended. the black album should be re-released anyway. damn it i really wish prince would put more effort into publishing his back catalouge. people are dying without hearing all this great music.
