We don't need to "figure", we pretty much know what was recorded when.

OK here is the first response I see. I guess I should have said that my assumption as a teen was that he'd recorded b sides later. This is way before any of us could really know when he did songs. Of course I could look now but that still wasn't the context I wrote from. Sorry you need to be spoonfed over trivial shit like this. [Edited 4/13/18 17:11pm]

What u should have done was using past tense, as in "we could only figure at the time", since indeed we didn't know much about recording dates before Uptown Magazine and Nilsen's DMSR in the mid-to-late 90's.

.

You still snapped at me for no reason, but it's OK. To be honest after my first (legitimately) outraged reaction to your first reply, the rest was mostly me fooling around with you (I chose to make fun of our argument rather than to take it too seriously). No bad blood though, we're cool hug

If SotT was a single album ... then there would probably be one less big Prince fan in the world. Sign was the first Prince album that I bought, back in 1987 the year it came out. Before that, I found Prince mildly interesting with a few good songs, but I hadn’t heard much besides the radio hits. Once I bought Sign and listened to it at home, I was blown away! Every song was good or great. There was so much variety. There were stone cold classics like Housequake, Adore, Forever in My Life, Sign, Dorothy Parker, etc. If roughly half of those songs were left off, there’s no way that album would’ve had the impact on me that it did.
