Hey I am a new Prince fan, and I would like you "Pro Prince fans"
to tell me which albums are good, I am going to buy new albums soon..

I already have these albums

1999
Purple Rain
Sign O The Times
The Hits/and the B Sides
Musicology
3121


Come
Batman
Newpower Soul (Don't believe the bad press...it's a fantastic album!)
Emancipation and Crystal Ball are loaded with great music!
Around The World In A Day
Parade
Black Album

Controversy is sort of a "lesser" 1999.
Stay as far away from Dirty Mind as you can get...it's easily his weakest album!

'


agreed Dirty Mind was the last album i got of his.... still like it but it can wait..



For You
Around the World in a Day
The Gold Experience
The Rainbow Children
Batman
Parade
Prince (self-titled)
One Night Alone (note: you can only get this album at npgmusicclub.com it's a download album but you can burn it onto a cd, it's a paino album, very good)

Go ahead buy it there's only one Prince. U won't find anything like this any where else. Annastesia alone is worth it. heart

Many of us agree, many of us disagree, but I for one am glad you are exploring Prince's work. I'd get to it all at some point so you could eventually post your own opinions here.

In chronological order, I'd go with

Prince,
Dirty Mind,
Controversy,
Parade,
The Black Album (if you can find it),
Lovesexy,
prince,
The Gold Experience and
The Rainbow Children.

Happy listening.
Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

Go get Batman and Parade, definitely. Parade's my favorite, and Batman has just fantastic pop songwriting.

You might just buy them all before Chinese Democracy comes out... biggrin wink


thumbs up! Batman continues to be underrated by pretty much everyone.

These would be my two recommendations as well. I'd stay away from Around the World in a Day for right now. Hit Dirty Mind, Prince, Controversy, Come, Gold Experience, and Lovesexy after that, and in that order.

Welcome, Axl!

Gold is one GREAT album, but it definetly shouldn't be your NEXT purchase. Get something from the 80's next. Get SOTT or Parade.

Welcome....I hope u have as much fun as I do hittin' the site and occasionally exchanging ideas with fellow purple true-bloods..... excited

If I were u, I'd just roll with it and explore his catalog....hit napster....or aol radio (all prince network is a MUST!!).....all of the recommendations are gr8 1's...so if u keep up with the org, u won't go wrong....I am a hardcore fan and I picked up a pointer or two from the folks here.....

enjoy!!!

tripp

don't buy the black album - oh sorry, i thought i was prince for a minute, but that might just be because i'm wearing heels at the moment.

anyway i think you should get them all, but if you are unsure about how you will like them, go to your local second hand cd shop and buy everything they have. that way if you dont like them, you didn't blow all your money.

next, make sure you track down the black album. it is a must have

[quote]Cool!... Get his 1st two Warner releases "For You" & "Prince". Then get Dirty Mind, Controversy, Parade, & Around the World In A Day. Hell you should just get everything. The Gold Experience, Black Album, Chaos & Disorder, Come,
Lovesexy, New Power Soul (Not my favorite), 1-800-new-Funk ect... you have to get online (try Ebay, Half.com, and Amazon). Crystal Ball you can Download at NPGMC.com. Also if you have any small record/ cd stores around you...try those. They usually have pretty large Prince sections at discounted prices. Happy Hunting!
