Esquire ranks all of Prince's albums

For what it's worth, just opinions, all subjective...

Don't hate your neighbors. Hate the media that tells you to hate your neighbors.

What a pitiful article, besides the need for some decent fact-checking.
Since when is “One of Us” on the Parade album?

Welcome to "the org", laytonian… come bathe with me.

Fun but, mostly, laughable.

Thanks for the link.

With Parade at #12, this List loses ALL credibility.

Any idea why they didn’t include The Vault, Old Friends For Sale?

Wonder if this guy is even a Prince fan lol I mean, I know it's subjective but Batman above Parade? "One of us" on Parade? Parade not in the top 5 for that matter (#1 on my list of favorites). He disses "Extralovable" and "Groovy potential". Interesting read nonetheless

Making love and music are the only things worth fighting for.

Every single one of us on the org could put together our own list and they would all be very different. We all have our own opinions on what his best albums are. This list is just one more opinion. Which is why I never put any stock in "best of" lists.

Having said that, I'll also say this. Even though I feel it goes without saying. But I disagree with this list. razz

Yeah... that is baffling?! Not sure what actual knowledge this writer has... look at Wikipedia at least! Plus it mentions Sign was his first double album (what about 1999?) I always love to see Prince reviews like this is mainstream publications.. but at least check your facts !

SOTT the first double-lp?? What about 1999??

Sure, the list isn't too far off reality, with a few exceptions (Parade too low, Lotus isnt the worst of them all, Batman too high) but in general it's decent enough. Surprised he had DM so high.

Interesting to see For You in the top 10. Not a bad list really, even if I don't personally agree with it. I assume this person has these albums on cd so Sign is their first double?
