news is so deep and complex music,i have a feeling
that bunch of you ignorant people are not ready or just didnt give a chance to news,probABLY labeling it as a jazz boring stuff.
news is anything but boring.

news is probably the real musicology with prince playing his vintage lick paying homages to jimi hendrix,return to forever,james brown and miles davies.
check how the band builds monumentum in north,
or better check the searing guitar solo that strikes in the 8 20 minute of news.
then ask yourself :is brand new orleans better then news.
no f.... way

I'm not comparing one track to an entire album, do you think Brand New Orleans is better than any of the four tracks from news.

Same old, same old.

Someone doesn't like something, so apparently they're "not ready" for it, or it's too "deep and complex" for them.

falloff


MAYBE, you're so simple, that anything beyond the usual "verse, chorus, verse, chorus, breakdown, chorus to fade-out" seems like fucking Mozart on LSD, ever thought of that?!

Is NEWS really that complex? I don't think so, maybe to you it is. razz

Preach on, ND. I'm a big Chopin & Liszt fan, and Prince's compositions on NEWS are ANYTHING but complex. They're very bland and ordinary, infact.

So yes, I guess Brand New Orleans is better, though it's not even a particularly good song.

Anxiety

i quite like the version of SST/brand new orleans i've heard where the two tracks are fused together into one long jam, but i have to say that even in this form, i like it about equally as much as anything on N.E.W.S. both offerings are pleasant, but nothing to get terribly excited about. i have to slow my mind down a bit to really get into either of 'em.

Please, don't start labelling people as ignorant because they don't like what you like (... and based on nothing more than an assumption.)

Or "good" music too much.
