Hadn't listened to that track for about 25 years but I just put it on and wow - I'd forgotten how many great tracks there are on that album. Thanks for the reminder. | |

You know, I find that third record to be her best. Yet a couple of the Prince tracks are the weakest on the record. "Boy's Club" and "Love On a Blue Train" are the best of his, as well as "Koo Koo," which is so quintessentially Prince-weird that one can argue against not loving it.

Great song from my favorite Sheila E. album. | |

You made me put the album on yesterday, while I was working. I'd forgotten what a solid collection of tunes it is! All the Prince-written songs are obviously his, but they're perfectly produced for Sheila's style. . Today I think I'll fire up "Romance 1600". It's been ages since I gave that one a listen, too. | |

I wish (this/these) song(s) were sung by The Family ! Great album indeed. Thanks for digging this up. "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves. And wiser people so full of doubts" (Bertrand Russell 1872-1972) | |

This was Sheila’s most consistent and most diverse album.There was a sultry R&B slow jam (“Hold Me”),the rockin’ “Faded Photographs”,a fun dance track (“Boys Club”),some cool funk with a message (“Koo Koo”) and a few other standout tracks (“Hon E Man”,”Love On A Blue Train”).It’s just a shame that the album wasn’t really promoted at all. | |

This is my favourite Sheila E album. It felt complete, rather than a collection of tracks. But I think they made a big mistake making Hold Me the lead single ,and then Koo Koo as the second. I think they should have gone with Faded Photographs and Wednesday like a river. . | |

That 3rd Sheila E album would have been a great candidate for a cd rerelease by funkytowngrooves/cherryred, with additional tracks: Paradise Gardens The World is High Koo Koo (12" remix) Love on a Blue Train (full version) | |

I think,after "Hold Me",the singles should have been "Faded Photographs" (with a great video and lots of MTV exposure)....then "Pride And The Passion" and finally,"Love On A Blue Train".
That's four strong singles right there,imo.

The thing is that I don't care at all for vinyl rereleases. It's a waste of time and (environment unfriendly) materials. Vinyl is not a proper medium for archival releases, since it carries sonic artifacts from the beginning, and develops even more during use. Even more, I think that the reason for not having a constant flow of SDEs so far is due to the Estate's focus on vinyl. The stuff is expensive and not available at a constant level, which hampers both sales of SDEs and a steady delivery to the customers. This provides no steady foundation for a well-oiled SDE program. I think if the estate would have focussed from the beginning on SDE consisting of only cds/dvds, we would already also have had the ATWIAD and Parade versions and a bunch of expanded editions of associated artists albums. | |

Yeah, the cd remaster was released in 2015 as limited edition in Japan only. Talking about a fan-friendly rerelease policy. And yeah, it was mastered really loud, see: https://prince.org/msg/5/467116 | |
