I don't know about the Miles Davis artwork, but it sure
does look like some Parliament Funkadelic artwork, yes.

Same thing with Exodus, just the drawings and the weird
mad out of your mind vibe seemed to make for an obvious
link as to whom and what influenced those albums.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

I dont think those 2 sound alike at all...I feel that what sounds Parliament influenced from P was "Soul Psychodelicide" & "We Can Funk" probbly y he had them in htere with him.

The artwork does look like somehting they did back thenm, and i think its a compliment!
Straight Jacket Funk Affair
Album plays and love for vinyl records.

Well, they're both kinda holding a gun on the cover
but that's about it... not that similar at all really.

He may like the onomatopea(sp?) sound of the title but the songs musically are not similar.

But yeah Prince has an affiniity for Parliament, and thats not a secret. His Camille is his version of Sir Nose.
