can someone point me to the thread ( if there is one ) of prince from the controversy era?

There was one quite some time ago but someone would have to bring it up. If they still have it. Other than that, I think it's been gone for awhile. Could always start a new one.

There should be some in the gallery located at the top of the page

Edit for link: http://prince.org/gallery/index.html

There might be more located by year as well. Good luck!

For some reason though, I think their refering to the thread that basically was a Dirty Mind thread. And then folks started posting pics from Controversy. That was about 6 or 7 weeks ago, I think. Maybe longer.

Nouveau, I KNOW u had me in mind when u picked thses pics!

NouveauDance said:

I've had this poster since 1982. I remember one of the very first threads I wrote on here was about when I saw Prince perform the song "Annie Christian" on the Controversy tour. That's where this picture is from. I find it odd that a lot of people don't care that much for this era of Prince. And I'm not refering to his music at that time either. They don't like his aura or his image. But to me, THIS is the Prince that I grew up on. That I was always defending to other kids at school. THIS is the Prince that influenced me and that I dug and still dig.

Aaaaah and look at my girl Lisa....Too fine.

Wasn't it this one? http://prince.org/msg/7/272234

^ I love the bands look in these pics, they have just the right mix of polish and rough.

blackguitaristz said:

wow P with a gun. I've never seen this pic!! It looks much more believable during this era than when he tried to go gangsta in the 90s.
Revisiting Dirty Mind and Controversy almost makes me wish Prince had stayed underground and Purple Rain never happened...

When you think about it...When "Controversy," was released...that is when you started seeing Prince's concerns about the world being displayed, in the songs, Ronnie talk to Russia," and "Annie Christian," and if you follow the political thoughts, and the spiritual thoughts, You can see how much Prince grew as a thinker...when you listen to, "Dear Mr. Man," and "Resolution."

The road between, "Private Joy," and "Satisfied," is another thread, on the Pillowtalk website.

YAY! this is what i was looking for thanks everybody

My Favorite "P" Photo of all time!!!

This pic was rumored to be the Controversy album cover at first. But Prince decided on the one that got used obviously.

I lovvve this part of his life. Really cool with the punk edge. So original.

TheKid3121 said:

I think we hit the right spot all

I was hoping the one with the bikini on and in the shower was posted.

This is one of the BEST Prince picture threads that has been on here and yet, it has 1/4 of the posts that other picture threads receives. IF that. That's why I mentioned earlier that many people on this site simple can't relate to THIS Prince. He was too hard, too wild, etc.

You're so right!!
And what's worse....."Does Prince wear socks" has more responses!!
