You guys ROCK! Hey rusty1, DUCK! I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

I generally agree with you on this rusty1, but I am so apathetic about Prince these days that I can't be bothered to bitch about him.
it was a ton of fun up until Graffiti Bridge came out, though  | |

Some stuff I like here & there,,,,but its not a period where I'll spend so much attention to. I'd say though, his unreleased stuff then was BETTER than the released ones. I think the reason for that because he was more commercially driven than the 80s,,,not that its a bad thing. make believe that you're quite wealthy eventho ur so broke u can't pay attention I LOVE THAT SOUNDTRACK!!!! and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

Hmmmmm,
I guess Prince should have not gone independent and stayed with Warner Bros. and did what Warner Bros. wanted him to do. An album every 2-3 years so they could maximize the singles and marketing, etc. So if you look at an alternative timeline for fun from the Greatest Hits album of 1993 until now: another 15 years. There probably would have been maybe only 6 - 7 albums released over the 15 years. 10-12 songs an album, 70 - 84 songs, maybe 5-8 B-sides? How many hits would there have been? 2-3 an album? How music music would we have not ever heard? And Prince would have become as predictable as U2. (I love U2. Prince is not U2. They are not comparable). I think fans have won out by Prince going independent on both the quality and quantity of the music released. I think the 90s period was solid. And the 00s period is looking better. | |

it's just as the first post said, this is a dead horse that has been beat to a pulp. I knew the tomtoes were gonna be lobed at you and i didnt want any part of that. if it;s any consolation, just know that the rest of the world outside the org, music journalists and regular men & woman on the street agree with you. some people here love the 90's sound, there's nothing wrong with that. | |

y Favorite Prince albums.
1. Crystal Ball 2. SOTT 3. Emancipation (Only because there is a mass of material. It's about 50/50) 4. Purple Rain 5. New Power Soul (yeah I know 99% disagree- so what. My list) 7. Parade 8. Graffiti Bridge 9. Dirty Mind 10.Prince (sorry P, I know and understand how you feel about this one but . . ) I guess I like the '90's. Seems solid to me. I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think. |

I believe in the 80's he had very different image for every album/tour. In the 90's things became 'Prince and the NPG' and then ' ' for years. It seems like over time he just started to coast and not change the images as drastic or really try to play up the theme of the albums into the tours (they were more like greatest hits tours, heck sometimes he played little to none new stuff) and I just believe many people will always love the 80's because Prince constantly recreated himself and changed the face of music and had the audience on the edge of the seat wondering what will he do next. MTV died in the 90's. Radio changed. So it's not all P's fault that many were clueless as to how good his new stuff was. Take the NPG 94 time period, much good solid music and fun.
I do love much of the output in the 90's. Still when I think of the albums in the 80's I can picture his new doo and clothes and videos..and how the albums correlated with the live show themes. Things changed. Personally I've come to just have fun listening to the music and try not to be too analytical with it. I think he makes the music for us to have fun with it. Just my 2 cents.. I did like it when he was underground and let us into Paisley and soundchecks. That was a cool time period. | |

Good job realm.
The music biz today is in a state of flux and it started at the time Prince declined. Also someone stated that the 78-88 period did not hve a bad album but I disagree. ATWIAD is an album that pales to Dirty Mind,PR,1999,and Controversy. If it was not for SOTT ,in the opinions of some ,the decline would have been after PR. |

i just don't think a 90's album should be included in his 5 best of all time
1)PR 2)SIGN o' THE TIMES 3)1999 4)dirty mind 5)parade even hid good 90s works such as emanciaption and the gold experience can't compete with these works. i'll stop posting this kind of topic for awhile. it seems on this site people will think everyyhing he does is brilliant. the truth is he had his time in the sun. he is an icon and is still a great live performer. i just don't think he has anything innovative left in him BOB4theFUNK | |

PurpleKnight said: I like Prince's 90's work overall. He came out with inconsistent albums, but on those albums were some of the best songs he's done to date.
Plenty of 90's tracks like The Love We Make and Shhh easily hold their own against 80's classics like Purple Rain and If I Was Ur Girlfriend. The main problem with the 90's era of Prince is twofold. One, the battle with WB had unfortunate consequences for both the marketing and tracklisting decisions of his albums. Also, Prince tended to be a little insecure at times, adding unnecessary elements like rappers and garish production techniques into some of his music. The genius is still there, though. Good post. I agree. | |
