If Princes last album was ATWIAD? If Prince kept his promise to never tour and record again in 1985, would you still be a huge fan like you are now? ATWIAD was his last record to be recorded. He quit he's done.
He was looking for the Ladder at the time. I remember Johnny Carson stating this on the tonight show, and Johnny laughing his ass off. Prince made all kinds of strange statements during the 80's. So how much impact would he still have on you? Would there be so much hoopla about him still to this day? There's a lot of great musicians who only made a few albums, and they're still praised I.E. Jimi Hendrix 4 studio albums. In my opinion, yes he'd still be my favorite. BUT thank God he didn't stop! "The little 1 will escort u 2 the places within ur mind" | |

Well, I would miss out on two of my favorites, Parade and Sign O the times. Two crucial albums that are part of his "middle period" before his so called spiritual awakening of Lovesexy. He still produced alot of good stuff post 1985. ==========================

ok, for those of you that think prince hasn't been in his prime since 87, realize that prince has done something truly amazing...he has become the greatest guitar player of all time...if you attended or heard the celebration, you know this...So while he may not have written a song like when doves cry or sign o the times ina while...he has absolutely trancended to a ridiculous level of guitar playing. He is a different kind of artist now. To me he is in a second prime these days. If you have bootlegs, listen to the guitar solo on sign o the times from this years celebration...wicked!! | |

I hate when Prince makes silly "announcements" to the press,like his so-called retirement from live performance in 1985.Then in 1993,he announced that he was gonna retire from music and that every album would be filled with old songs from the vaults.He's always doing these silly publicity stunts.You have to take almost anything he says with a grain of salt. | |

Jimi released 4 studio albums? What was the 4th one? This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes. | |

He kinda filled old stuff back in 93 since he changed his name... Yeah you have to take a step back at those anouncement and ... the rest is history... "Goodness will guide us when love is inside of us... The Force will be with you, always" | |
