Do it for the Duck!

I grew up in the caribbean listening pretty much to reggae, calypso, and whatever top 40 and r&b filtered down to the radio stations there. i liked every prince song i heard, which was pretty much lets go crazy, purple rain, kiss, and little red corvette, and sott. I had no idea who the man was or of any other works. i decided one day to get "his album"...i was only 15. Well, that album was Lovesexy. For the first 2 weeks, i thought, what IS this? Never heard ANYTHING like it. I developed after that a serious liking for it. When i moved to the usa the next year, i immediately went to a music store to search 4 more prince. Imagine my shoch and exhilaration upon seeing 9 albums besides on the shelves. I bought each one as i could afford 2. Prince's music became the soundtrack of my life too. I can't begin to list the songs that blew me away. I mean he was so in a different place than ANY other musician/songwriter, (even other legends and geniuses) As a musician/singer/songwriter myself, I have been SO affected by the man's body of work, quality of work, genius of his work, arrangements of his work and by the man's main instrument, which i consider 2 B his voice (mine too)

There's much more 2 say, but I'll leave it at the fact that: I'm new 2 this org. and I'm SO happy 2 find a place 2 go 2 express the joy I feel with being a lover of prince's music. I look forward 2 meeting as many of u as possible. Anyone in Milwaukee out there?
Lovesexy is still my favorite among favorite albums!
