Which is the best 'Prince and the Revolution' album?

I think it is Purple Rain, although my personal favourite is Around The World In A Day. What do you think?

"Parade" without a doubt. Damnit, why did they have to breakup? cry I would've loved to see the public's reaction to "Dream Factory"

Very well said. I too think that Purple Rain has a more universal appeal, although it is by no means conventional. Around the day... is also my favourite as it contains some of my absolute favourite Prince compositions. "take me with you' was a good indication what Prince's sound would be like in 1985: colourful production, psychedelia and great tunes like pop life, the ladder, raspbery beret...

Anji, you have the best Prince-related threads in the house.

I think Purple Rain worked best, but my favorite would probably be Parade CLOSELY followed by ATWIAD

3)ATWIAD - listened to this today and realised that it's really not that good. Just a few great tracks surrounded by much lesser ones.

Purple Rain in a Blow Out.The Flower Power Prince wasn't my Cup of tea.in fact IMHO The Outtakes from 85&86 were far more interesting than Around the World in Day&Parade Combined.B-Sides were better than many Album tracks&"A Love Bizarre" Alone easily matched many of these tracks IMHO.
