One of my least favourite Prince albums for sure. I can still feel the disappointment when I listened to it the day it came out and sadly that never changed

This is the last album I bought on casette too. The casette is wrecked from playing it over and over and the insert is in shreds from reading the lyrics. I love this album, it brings back happy teenage memories!!!

Having grown up on hip-hop this album took a lot longer for me to stomach. The rapping and beats for songs like My Name is Prince are so poor it was offensive. My younger brother had the album and we'd turn it on just to get a laugh. In later years when I became immersed in Prince's music I went back to it and gave it a chance. Once I got past the aforementioned problems I found it to be a quality album. Top 15 (Prince albums) surely, maybe top 10.

I LOVE this cd. It's one of my favourites!!

I first heard this CD at the "Controversy Convention" in Minneapolis back in 1992. The club was given a listening party at Glam Slam. Carmen Electra and Mayte were running around the club dancing with themselves and with bodyguards. I remember clearly how everybody cheered during the guitar solo in "3 Chains O Gold." Was anyone from the org there?

But months later when it was released I did not find it as exciting. My fave track is "7" and I remember the video was in heavy rotation on MTV back in the day. I hate the Kirstie Alley "contributions." Total distraction.
