Princes Last Good Album Was For You

Everything else since has been hit or miss. This new album isn't up to par at all with the first original classic.

Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

All music is shit music and no music is real- gunsnhalen

Gary Hunts Album Isn't That Good- Soulalive

You're obviously being a little evillol but I always did feel that everything that made Prince into "Prince" was already there on For You. He just needed to develop it.

I'd say the East 17 recordings. Dude's a good session player, but it got a bit out of control when they let him near the recording booth on his own.

I agree, Prince should have stayed true to his original vision.

Or preferably Pepe Willie's.

Or Andre's. He lost his way after "Champagne" if you ask me.

It all went downhill after he played the original Batman theme on the piano. Should have stuck with playing cover versions.

In all honesty, "Funk Machine" (1965) was the peak. Nothing really compared afterwards.

Naw...it was that first wail in the delivery room when he came out his mammas belly. Straight magical. Anything after that was tragical.

He should have gotten a job at McDonalds. Image the burgers he would be putting out today? Obviously, changing his name in the 90's may have caused a few printing issues when it came to his name badge, but at least he would have eventually gotten out of his contract and would be able to sell double, and even triple burgers with lots of cheese independantly online.

But his new burgers would never be as good as the first ones he made. Plus, he refuses to serve his customers the funky funky blue cheese they demand.

True. And his burgers would have way too many ingredients. But, once he made friends with his previous employers at McDonalds, he would surely start serving up the good stuff again.

I think Prince should never have learned to play the guitar, because then we would never have had any of those piano and synth sounds that bogged down his albums upto and including 1999.
