i don't see the christopher tracy comparisons people are making, other than his hair looks greased down within an inch of its life.

It's more like the horrendous 'do on the left.

i like the greased down shingle-y looking bangs, but from certain angles it looks like he has some weird bob haircut like a flapper or something.

Wouldn't this do be cute on Huey?
I'm just saying.
cough*photoshop*cough

Thats not a Christopher Tracy hairdo...its a comb-over to hide a bald patch - on all the recent TV appearances my friends and I (AND PROBBALY THE WHOLE WORLD) have noticed that is hair is going thin.

Thats not surprising for a man pushing 50 who fucks with his do so much

... the consensus builds...

I knew I'd seen that hairdo somewhere else.

HamsterHuey said:

The first photo (utcm) he is wearing finger waves and the second photo (GMA) is hear is just slicked back. Looks good in both.

I see it, and I love it!

The mustaches look about the same too

I like his hairstyle in UTCM

I liked most of the styling concerning UTCM and Parade... when it comes to styling, UTCM/Parade and SOTT were the most amazing times... when it comes to Prince looks or album styling or photography.

I know Laura LiPuma did the design for the album sleeves, Jeff katz the photography, but who did the styling, the hairdo's?

Uhmmmm...

I feel like the GMA-Prince is a grown-up version of the UTCM-Christopher.

Maybe we can get Prince so crazy to do a starry night performance of a walk-through of the Parade album, including Alexa De Paris and ' Or $'... maybe the original version of An Honest Man...

I don't like that hairdo (I prefer D&P era) However...one he doesn't have that Michael Jackson-ish pony tail like he had in the Thieves in Temple Video...

TYPHOON!

Me Oh My...

Well, we all have our fave Prince look/style. I thought the D&P era too clownish.

Look at THIS;

HamsterHuey said:

These are from Sign O' the times era .....

prime said:

Still like D&P...followed by New Power Soul

I loved the Sign O' the times look until he started dressing like CAT and Sheila.

Diamonds and Pearls was one of my favoret era's...everything worked.

The new hair style is the best he's sported in years...yeah, similar 2 the Christopher Tracy... Phatt, nonetheless... and timeless.

Peace.

I agree... I think it was the "timeless" look that worked for Under The Cherry Moon too.

I never liked the big hat but i thought UTCM look was great. It was the first time the public got to see Prince dress and seem "Normal." I love that movie!!!
