I was at the BODP taping at House Of Blues so I'm a little biased but there's nothing wrong with this set. I think people have a problem with it because it didn't totally capture the vibe of this great tour. | |

Yeah, I get Prince's ironic sense of humor, similar to mine, but the point was that the listener thought "rapist" was more acceptable than "racist," and that that changed her viewpoint of the song. I question that--why would one be acceptable and not the other? Yeah, Prince's lyrics can be gamey and controvesial--but why would one be considered more acceptable than the other--even taking "irony" into consideration? Maybe he was referring to old Abe as a "rapist!" LOL Woosh! What was that? Joke going waaaaay over your head. © Bart Van Hemelen

It has to be one of his best CDs of all time, in my opinion! What a great jazz/funk artist! Wish he would do more like this one--would love to hear him do an entire jazz album. I'm in musical heaven today! What albums do you think are his best and/or your favs and why?
Wow. Can I borrow your copy? My copy was far from "Immaculate", "Smooth" or "Awesome". In fact, it was pretty close in quality to that other steaming pile - the "Live At the Aladdin" DVD. HOWEVER, you could apply those superlatives to the "One Night Alone..." CD... • Did you first think Prince was gay? •
Wendy: He’s a girl, for sure, but he’s not gay. He looked at me like a gay woman would look at another woman. Lisa: Totally. He’s like a fancy lesbian. | |
