Sign O the Times - IMO, it's his masterpiece.

I should say Sign o the Times, but I will say 1999, its the raw dirty minded Prince I know and Love, plus it has 1999 and Little Red Corvette and of course International Lover.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name

just listened to this CD its excellent first to last. So, to answer the question ~ today my answer would be 3121. Tomorrow, most likely....

"because it's got waves on it"

for me it has to be the prince album - if I were trapped on a desert Island with nothing but sand, sea, starvation and delerium, i'd want to believe there was joy around the corner and i would come back as Prince.

Also, no vegan nonsense on this record, so at least i'd be able to eat myself.

Balladium

"Come" is probably one of the least popular official WB albums having 'flopped' commercially and selling only around 500k copies.

It's my favourite overall album for sure.

What I like about it is the integration of the songs. Not a single bad song imo. I especially like Papa but my favourite is "Solo". Listening to the harp strums over and over the wonderful articulation of the words with his falsetto voice totally mesmerising. Haunting and utterly beautiful. So many articulations and the range gigantic.

Nothing else like it. I love the "I feel like I'm going insane....." line smile

A total masterpiece.

RIP Prince 1958-1993... a prophetic attribution imo. The last album from the Prince I was an enchanted fan of.

Emancipation for some..????

eek

I am surprised, Emancipation - one of my least fave albums, actually the 1st disappointing Prince album for me - since I became a fan in 83.

I have chosen: Lovesexy already. THAT is great music.

Being stuck on an island with nothing but Lovesexy to listen to would be torture to me..

I picked Emancipation due to the length of the album.. with only a few songs I don't like, it'd be hard for me to tire of..

Out of the 1980s albums, I'd pick 1999.

I was originally going to say Around The World In A Day... but I have to admit Lovesymbol is probably my fave album and I enjoy listening to 'The Morning Papers' and 'Blue Light' way too much.

You know this is such a hard question to answer.

While Lovesexy is ultimately my favorite album, I don't know if it qualifies as being played on a dessert island. Haha..Well it does qualify because it's Lovesexy! Haha..I think I would have to go with..

"One Nite Alone'..I would listen to that at night. During the day, I would go for...LOVESEXY!
