I don't skip tracks. I play all my albums all the way through. Even the songs I don't like are important in the overall journey that is the album listening experience.

Having said that, these are the Prince albums where every song is rated at least 4/5 stars in my iTunes (3/5 rating I consider "meh"):

Dirty Mind

1999

Purple Rain

Parade

The Black Album

I’m pretty sure the first time I came across a Prince album with a song I just had to skip was the 0(+> album and “The Morning Papers.” I still have that impulse when that song comes up. Brilliant album...just something a little stale about TMP.



Wow. I love that song (TMP). It is one of my favorites. I think because it is such a hopeful, simple, happy love song (to me, anyway). And the video suits it PERFECTLY. I do have to admit its a MIGHTY SYRUPY song, but that looked like a naturally happy Prince and Mayte.

If a song or entire album sucks I delete it ... then I make a mixtape of the album p should have put out that is far more enjoyable ... however ... 1999 - sott plus black album and the family are all perfect albums and need no edit

I rarely skip songs on Prince albums. I will admit that I skip Animal Kingdom, but I can't think of any other's.

Controversy
1999

Albums where every song is rated a 7/10 or above:

Dirty Mind
Purple Rain
Parade
Lovesexy
The Gold Experience


Albums where every song is rated a 6/10 or above:

Sign o' the Times

Dirty Mind to Batman...the only tracks I don’t like are Temptation and Arms of Orion.

Graffiti Bridge was his first album that contained a song I hate...the dreadful title track.

Some other trax I don’t like:

Symbol album...3 Chains of Gold
Come...Solo and Orgasm
Emancipation...the title track, Get yo Groove on, we gets up
Chaos...I Rock Therefore I Am
Rave: Hot With U, Everyday is a winding road, Baby Knows

Graffiti Bridge was the first album to have more songs on it I didn't/don't like than more songs that I did/do.

Me as well. It's his first of the dreadfull 'bland songs' that more or less became his standard from Musicology on.

Skipping over The Morning Papers is a crime. Those guitars solos ffs! If they don't make you tingle, you're dead inside.

I like every track on:

For You

Prince

Dirty Mind

Purple Rain

Around the World in a Day

Parade

Sign O The Times

Lovesexy

Batman

The Black Album
Come

The Vault - Old Friends 4 Sale

The Rainbow Children

One Nite Alone

Art Official Age

Hit N Run Phase 2

Quite a spread of old and new. There are side projects and protoge albums that I can barely get through at all.

The only songs I'd skip from his 70s and 80s material are Ronnie Talk 2 Russia and Free. From the 90s onwards things became a lot more variable.
