If You Can Only Have 7 Albums? I am curious how different or the same the prince.org fans are as far as what they consider the best of the best. If you could only choose 7 Prince albums not including any Hits CD's which 7 would they be? You don't have to put your 7 in any specific order.
Here Are Mine:
1. Sign O' The Times 2. Purple Rain 3. Musicology 4. Parade 5. The Gold Experience 6. The Rainbow Children 7. 1999 |

1. 20ten 2. New Powersoul 3. Emancipation 4. MPLSound 5. I kid, I kid
So really 1. 1999 2. Sign o the Times 3. Lovesexy 4. The Gold Experience 5. Purple Rain 6. Diamond and Pearls 7. Controversy
And yes, I chose Diamonds and Pearls. The highs are high, even if the lows are a little on the low side. "Love & honesty, peace & harmony" | |

1 Sign O The Times 2 Purple Rain 3 1999 4 Lovesexy 5 Parade 6 Around The World In A Day 7 Controversy
Not on the list, but...
Most overrated: Dirty Mind- yes, it's a landmark album, that you can argue is where Prince really found his sound. The songs itself....some great. Does anybody really listen to Do It All Nite or Partyup everyday? The keyboards sound really cheesy at times...like a mix of the Doors and the Munsters theme. Great Album, but can't possibly list it in a Top 7. Top 15 for sure.
Most underrated: Lotus Flow3r(minus the Bria disc and MPLSound) Not a top 7, but I could change my mind on that if I did this list a week from now. Great guitar playing, some really good weird moments that Prince seemed to have forgotten. 4ever is probably the weak link, and Money is great at first, but tiresome after a while...but when I thought Prince was just coasting with good to almost great albums, 3121 was awesome, but Lotus just blew me away. | |

Hypothetical nonsense. I'd smuggle the lot and fight about it later.

In Chronological order..
1. Prince 2. Parade 3. Chaos and Disorder 4. Emancipation 5. Newpower Soul 6. One Nite Alone... 7. N.E.W.S.
I only want Parade because it contains my favorite Prince song ("Sometimes It Snows In April"), otherwise I'd probably put Controversy in it's spot.

To me it's all about the classics:
1. Purple Rain 2. Sign O' The Times 3. 1999 4. Lovesexy 5. Parade 6. Around The World In A Day 7. The Gold Experience
then,
I would seriously miss "Controversy" & "Dirty Mind".
