My new Prince playlist "Purple Mission Mix"

Just a compilation you might want to make up and try out. I enjoy it anyway

1)Can't stop this feeling I got (it's a first track unless I edit out the Prince dialogue at the start)

2)Schoolyard (funk at first bite)

3)Witness 4 the Prosecution (the funky Camille like mix, for me this is the definitive version although I think I may be in the minority here)

4)It's a wonderful day (and that says What?)

5)100 MPH (Prince Version)

6)Do yourself a favor ( what a revelation this cover was for me when I first heard it)

7)Irresistable bitch (hurt me)

8)La la la he he he (12 inch version Longggggggggggggggggggggbasssoloversion)

9)Cindy C (so good Cindy Crawford did not put out a restraining order and she had to settle for Richard Gere afrerwards)

10)Hide the bone (probably not hard to guess where it ends up)

11)Dirty Mind (Whack your outta here)

12)Brand New Orleans (This is grape jelly an underappreciated purple jam and it needs more love)

13)She spoke to me (extended old friends version plays out to the fade out, Sonny T lost a pound of funk playing on this)

Please tell me what you think. Hello Org and a special hi to all other New Zealand Prince fans.

I could never find a decent copy of 100 MPH. They all sound like the cassette

got dropped in water or something so I can't include that one. Also, does

Dirty Mind seem out of place? But good work.

Thank you biggrin biggrin . My copy of 100 MPH is the same one(s) everybody has. I just am able to ignore the decline in audio quality fortunately so I kept the song in my list.

You may be right about Dirty Mind. It was one of the few tracks that was a grower for me ( I usually like Prince tracks immediately or not at all). I put Dirty Mind in as a track that would be good for listening to in the car. Also I wanted to switch up the playlist. It is tempting to make a compilatiion that has songs that are all the same for unity. However for me the art is to add a few changes (ultimately this is what people do with albums) For example I would be hesitant to put satisfied, on the couch, too close together on a compilation. IF in doubt throw in tambourine as a sorbet to clear the palate. Prince fans are omniverous musically. biggrin biggrin
