PRINCE BEST ALBUM SURVIVOR ROUND 3, VOTE DOWN TO THE FINAL 3

Round 2 produced some great results and we got votes for every single album except Sign o the times with no votes. The results were

Dirty Mind 10 votes
1999 4 votes
Purple Rain 5 votes
Parade 6 votes
S.O.T 0 votes
Lovesexy 12 votes
Gold Experience 15 votes

So the Gold Experience and Lovesexy are voted off, so it means the best albums are limited to the 1980-1987 period, a shame for the Gold Experience easily his best of the post 1990 period. On placings alone we have

10th The Black album
9th Controversy
8th Come
7th The Gold Experience
6th Lovesexy
5th ????
4th ????
3rd ????
2nd ????
1st ????

Heres whats left, again vote 2 and we will be done to the FINAL 3

Dirty Mind
1999
Purple Rain
Parade
Sign o the Times


My two are
Purple Rain
Parade

Voting off:

Parade
1999

How in the hell is Parade still on here, but not TGE or Controversy? disbelief "Do Me, Baby" by it's self is better than everything on Parade IMO

I think Parade survives because it has Mountains, Kiss, Anotherloveholenyohead, New Position and Boys and Girls.

Uh Prince has done better sex ballads than Do Me Baby. (But see Insatiable, Crucial, Scandalous Sex Suite, On the Couch, Shhh . . .)
As for voting off . . . .

Dirty Mind
1999

Can't vote off Purple Rain or SOTT and after defending Parade . . .
I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think.

lol Sadly, not a single one of these albums is even on this list..TGE was, but it totally got hated on and even it's better than Parade to me. Now, don't get me wrong, I love me some "Girls & Boys" (one of my all-time faves), Kiss, and Anotherlovenholenyohead, even cry a little on Sometimes It Snows In April even to this day, but "Controversy" offered a lot more ummph to me than Parade did. Compared to his other soundtracks, this was one of the least interesting to me. Just my 2 pennies.... highfive on 1999 however. wink

Bitches! Lovesexy and Gold should have advanced! That said, all 7 albums in question are undeniably great.

But these 2 should get to stepping:

Dirty Mind
Purple Rain

1999 to own all others.

I've been counting a bit and the question seems to be 'which do you prefer: purple rain or parade'.

I'll defend Parade here for a bit. Especially since summer is here (on the northern hemisphere anyway) and Parade is so breezy, feelgood, happy Prince. Step in your car, open the windows, play Parade. Open the windows and doors of your house, get into your garden or balcony and play Tracy's Parade. It works as an album, sure it might have songs you prefer, but it's a story, start to finish. It does sound kinda 80s, but it's mostly real, dynamic and warm. It's complete with Clare Fischers beautiful strings and has great accents by Atlanta Bliss and Eric Leeds. The synths and drum computers are less upfront and make sure it doesn't sound dated. It's still relevant today.

Christopher Tracy for president!
