Okay, so :I: went a little on amazon & bought albums like Times Squared by Eric Leeds, Sax-A-Go-Go by Candy Dulfer & Martika's Kitchen (among others).

R there certain (more obscure as opposed to the Time, Shelia E. or Madhouse) albums that have Prince input (writing or playing credits) that u would suggest as a must-have?

thanks.

I'd recommend you both Mavis Staples CDs:

Time Waits for No One
The Voice

and George Clinton's Hey Man Smell My Finger

Kate's Bush - The Red Shoes
Great album, but the Prince track 'Why Should I Love U', just tops it off.
