I'd have to say 'Love Symbol'.I used to listen to that album from beginning to end,without having to skip over any tracks.

NEWS and before TRC

"Enjoyed". I enjoyed TRC from beginning to end, even though Wedding Feast was the most spectacularly misfired joke ever. Talking about really liking each song, no duds though, was The Truth.

I'd say they all bite except for "Shy"

"The Rainbow Children" blew me away. Before that, the "Symbol" album.

TRC. I'm not a big fan of Wedding Feast, but it's so short that I can't be bothered to hit the skip button!

NEWS
TRC
The Truth

I don't know why all you guys listing TGE here.
It's really one of the most terrible things p. have ever done!!!

The Truth.

1999

purple rain
the gold experience

i like most of the b sides also

For You. Kidding. I guess I also have to go with the Gold Experience too. But I also really like Emancipation. But with three hours of music there has to be something you don't like!

PLEASE tell me your kidding! That was one of Prince's WORST albums!! Awful, awful stuff, all the way around! C'mon, EWM, I know we don't always agree, but I still respect you! Tell me this is just your smart-assed sense of humour!!!

Waitaminnit! You're not the real EWM are you?? You're his ....errr, evil twin, right (or would that be his good twin? Man, I'm so confused)?

I actually really enjoyed the trio of jazz influenced instumental albums (Xpectation, N.E.W.S. and C-Note). N.E.W.S. is my least favorite, while Xpectation is the best of the three. I can understand how some fans don't dig 'em, but there really is some great playing going on on those discs.

I'm dead serious. Batman was consistent all the way through, with no rap segments or any other waste. Plus it had some great tracks on it (Electric Chair, Vicki Waiting, Partyman, Lemon Crush, Scandalous, etc.). I could listen to the album straight through.

But The Arms Of Orion is on there, man!!

Cloudbuster said:

That's okay. The Arms of Orion is better than any track on TRC.

I can't argue with that!

EvilWhiteMale said:

Yes Batman is very consistant. I actually love that album...not all the time but I definitely give it a couple of spins every so often.

My Last favorite is TRC. I know I am in a minority...but I love wedding feast. I think I cracked up the first time I heard it. I take it as a segue or skit or whatever. Comes out of nowhere, super short and jolts you out of the mood of the album...but I see it as having some purpose. It fits with the story and sugues to the 2nd half. Man for a 30 sec song...this one is HATED. I know my partner hates this song vehemently..and it's not allowed to be played in the house .

But before that one...there was a gap for me. I'd say Come was the best before that one.

For You.



Just messin' with y'all. I would have to say Come or The Gold Experience, although I liked alot of Crystal Ball and The Truth. I still haven't heard The Rainbow Children or N.E.W.S.

None.

But after repeated playing, I'd have to go with the following:

Dirty Mind
1999
Purple Rain
Lovesexy
The Gold Experience
The Undertaker
Chaos And Disorder
The Rainbow Children
Xpectation

I disagree

That's just your opinion. I read another one of yours about which music
was good and influential in the 8ties, it made clear u don't know too
much about good music i'm sorry. Just my two cents no hard feelings.

Purple Rain

PaisleyPark said:

So in your opinion, what constitutes "knowing" about good music?

I'd have to say Lovesexy. No trash filler on that one. Some other albums have come close, but he puts too much out. This may surprise some, but Chaos was, in my opinion, a really tight album that I liked pretty much straight through.

ya'll know.
