WHAT ARE YOUR BOTTOM 3 PRINCE ALBUMS YOU HARDLY EVER PLAY...


I never thought this would ever happen since I love every Prince album up until 2002
but..

Xpectation
ONA Live
News

God forbid.. they'd make it to the CD drink coaster hall of fame...

I kind of agree with you on the instrumental albums but I have to strongly disagree with you regarding One Nite Alone...Live. I love that album. This is what he should be releasing. After each tour give us a box set, but make it 4 cd's instead of 3. But aside from instrumental stuff my bottom 3 would be

For You
New Power Soul
Rave In2 The Joy Fantastic

Xpectation and News is understandable- two challenging discs to listen to because they have no vocals.

However, ONA:LIVE is great

Rave
S.N.O.O.Z.E.
Emancipation

N.E.W.S.
Chaos & Disorder
Graffiti Bridge

NPS, NEWS and Rave.

Xpectation is great, way better than NEWS.

New Power Soul

Damn straight!

BinaryJustin said:

I have to agree with Marrk. Save for Mad Sex,Come On, and The One, the rest of that album is like an hour old bowl of Fruit Loops....

But that's just my opinion.

bottom 3??

For you. Good stuff, just doesn't stand up to his best material.

New Power Soul. Mostly throwaway light pop and R&B, but a few stellar tracks - especially The One.

N.E.W.S. Interesting experiment that doesn't really work 100%. Still, I'm glad P did it.

Jamademus said:

That's easy: doesn't "Emancipation" consist of 3 crappy discs?

Parade
Batman
The Rainbow Children

BinaryJustin said:

Nope! it's a definate and that's my final word!!

WTF?!?!? You can't be serious!

Batman I can understand but Parade R U on crack?

There ARE no bottom three Prince albums. They're all up the top in some way or another.

Jamademus said:

Hey, what can I say? I wasn't a big fan of "KISS" The only song I kinda liked was "Anotherloverholenyohead"

Savannah said:

I can't understand your pics. I never heard Xpectation so I can't offer a fair comment on that one. I guess you don't like NEWS which I love, But ONA? How can you have a problem with Prince live? Personally I thought the collection was great I mean whats not to like? Now NEWS was just mind blowing to me. But we live in an age where artistry is not respected. I listened to Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock the other day. I feel that is the album that inspired NEWS. I wonder how many people who don't like NEWS feel about jazz or instrumentals in general. I mean did you like the Madhouse stuff?
But I guess to answer your question the only Prince album I honestly dislike and have told people I don't like is Chaos and Disorder. I just out and out thought it sucked and I still haven't found the groove on that one. Other than that I am pretty much satisfied with all his albums. I don't have three only the one.
Peace

4 me only graffiti bridge = not very good !

I loved ONA live. Loved it. My 3:

NPS
Chaos and Disorder
D&P

BATMAN
GRAFFITI BRIDGE
RAVE U2 THE JOY FANTASTIC

NPS
Rave
1999 - The New Master

There are many other Prince albums with major flaws -- Emancipation, TGE, Come, Graffiti Bridge, D&P -- but only those three are for me almost totally devoid of charm. Yeah I know The New Master isn't an album, but it's so bad it richly deserves its coaster status.

Prince
Batman
NEWS

1999~The New Master~Gets NO airplay at my radio station

Kamasutra~WTF??? If this was his way of saying I LOVE U,
no wonder they divorced.

N.E.W.S.~ Personally, I have spun it twice...as background
music when cleaning up, not to actually LISTEN to it.

QUIT HATIN' ON NPS EDIT! U KNOW THAT CD BUMPS~

Batman, N.E.W.S, and Diamonds and Pearls.

I am so disappointed to see NEWS up there so often.

I'm gonna say Emancipation.

If that's cheating, add Kamasutra and Diamonds and Pearls.

1999 the new master
New Power Soul (I would miss The One but it would be worth getting rid of the rest)
Kamasutra- sounded like something Ross from Friends would do

New Power Soul

N.E.W.S.

Kamasutra

(and a copy of Chaos and Disorder just in case one of the other ones goes missing.)
