The oddest "Prince album ranking" I have found so far

By elfo19 on RateYourMusic. While every Prince fan is expected to have PR and SOTT as their top 2 and other choices such as high rankings of cult albums and the debateful placements of the HitNRun albums, this is more like a guy relying on nostalgia. In reverse order:

45. Kamasutra

44. Batman

43. Rave Un2 The Joy Fanastic

42. Xpectation

41. N.E.W.S.

40. C-Note

39. Black Album

38. Graffiti Bridge

37. Newpower Soul

36. Prince (1979)

35. Planet Earth

34. Lotusflow3r

33. One Nite Alone (Solo Piano and Voice)

32. The Truth

31. Crystal Ball

30. The Gold Experience

29. Around The World In A Day

28. The Slaugherhouse

27. The Chocolate Invasion

26. 3121

25. Musicology

24. MPLSound

23. HitnRun Phase One

22. The Undertaker

21. 20Ten

20. Diamonds And Pearls

19. Emancipation

18. 1999

17. Exodus

16. HitnRun Phase Two

15. GoldN****

14. For You

13. Sign O The Times

12. Parade

11. Controversy

10. Art Official Age

9. Come

8. Plectrumelectrum

7. The Vault: Old Friends 4 Sale

6. Chaos And Disorder (he must really like the "Originally Intended 4 Private Use Only" throwaways!)

5. Dirty Mind

4. Lovesexy

3. Love Symbol Album

2. The Rainbow Children (!!!)

1. Purple Rain

This guy had me intrigued with his bottom three, then he just had to do the all-three-in-a-row instrumental cluster that everyone else does near the bottom of these things. List is trash.

Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry.

After his death and I gave it the chance it deserved, The Rainbow Children edged out SOTT as his greatest album. No exclamation marks necessary.
