I loved a lot of 3121, but not a lot of Planet Earth (I found it a little weak). Unfortunately, I haven't got to hear the new tracks, but I'm excited for them nevertheless. The only Prince album i can't get into, no matter how much I try, is The Rainbow Children. It's just too damn preachy. Oh, and for those complaining about Planet Earth - it sorta reminded me of Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic - which we all remember as a really weird album with some interesting tracks, but a lot of goofiness. But the album before that was the masterpiece of the Gold Experience. And we got Musicology not long after. He's Prince. You won't love every song, but you should respect them all, because the man just plays whatever musical style his soul tells him to, and the end result is always, always a surprise. Can someone tell me WHICH 'label' it is on the 1031 site to hear the songs? The 'Far Right Box' doesn't really work now that they've updated. So not sure which I need to be clickin on :p [Edited 12/29/08 10:14am] Interesting. Personally, I think The Rainbow Children was incredible (and I'm the LAST one who wants to be preached to), so much that I have it vinyl too. That's what great about being a Prince fan is the difference of opinions. Some take it to the extreme though, which I find amusing. I do agree with you on Gold. In my book, the most underated album of his, especially if he would've left Days of Wild as the opening track ovr Pussy Control. FYI I managed to hear the tracks and musically they were pretty cool. Not a revisit to Chaos and Disorder as some have stated on here (though I liked that too), but some nice guitar work and progressive bass lines. Of course Crimson and Clover was a remake which I'm still not sure why Prince is doing that. That was just OK I guess. Why not remake Machine Gun? [Edited 12/31/08 9:10am] I have the vinyl also, the packaging and the big booklet are nice, and the sound is not bad considering people don't put much into making sure vinyl sounds good these days | |
