. An orchestral "The Dance" sounds like something left over from an aborted soundtrack.


Sounds almost like he knows what he's talking about.

I think we all need to consider also that Prince acually wants to sell some units and actually make a run at the charts. Nobody is going to touch Prince being innovative this late in his career, from a distribution point of view.


Late in his career? BB King is late in his career..perhaps so is Little Richard, or James Brown...but late in Prince's career?????
Even Paul McCartney, or the Stones aren't "Late in their careers"[/quote]

Commercially Prince has been in the wilderness for well over a decade and probably will never get consistent radio play again. I was just making the point that Prinnce cannot afford to be completely experimental anymore if he wants distribution.

Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off
