It's very funny to see that TRC is still a controversy. The ratings swing between A and unlistenable.

IMHO it's one of the greatest records of Prince, but maybe it's because i have the chance not to be english native. Or maybe i just don't pay enough attention to the lyrics. There's a grave voice in the segues and so what ! I also listen a lot to Bob Marley without being a rasta, and he's preaching a lot in his songs...

For me, TRC and 3121 are both A, in their very different style.

Musicology is a C, too reasonable album, i need more colors.

NEWS is a B, but it's a very special album. The best moment i found to listen to it is while travelling, watching by the window... Then the "geographic funk" make sense. hehe.

1) 3121: A-

2) Musicology: D+

3) One Night Alone (Piano): C

4) The Rainbow Children: Music A, Lyrics F. Some of the lyrics to this album really creep me out. Espescially the ones about Theocracy. I'm sorry but Iran is NOT a model of good government.

5) News: D-

We're supposed to rank them too?

How about the ONA studio album??

Here's how I rate and rank them:




1. 3121 (4 to 4.5 out of 5)
2. The Rainbow Children (3.5 or 4/5)
3. NEWS (3/5 - but i like instrumentals)
4. One Night Alone (3/5)
5. Musicology (1 or 2 out of 5)

Here's the ranking in the order I'd rather listen to them:

3121 (4/5)
Musicology (3.5/5)
Rainbow Children (3/5)
One Nite Alone (3/5)
News (2/5)

News ..... Wasted ..... 1/5

ONA ..... Joy in Repetition LIVE is a masterpiece but the rest is no where near as good as the concert i went 2!! 2/5 just 4 Joy

Rainbow ..... Hmmm , what a strange CD ..... something of an Enigma ..... 1+1+1=3 is fantastic ,always loved She Loves me 4 me BUT y put SHIT like Wedding Feast on it & like many people that Voice is awful , some great music though 3.5/5

Musicology ..... loved Call my name as soon as i heard it BUT there is a real lack of any real Prince on here 2/5

3121 ..... Title track is my favourite Prince song since god knows ..... Love, Dance & some other good tracks make this a pretty good CD But Incence & Lolita are god damn awful !! 3.5/5
