MORE BOUNCE TO THE OUNCE/CONTROVERSY I THINK "MORE BOUNCE TO THE OUNCE" IS ONE OF THE FUNKIEST SONGS EVER RECORDED BY ANYONE. "CONTROVERSY" IS MY ALLTIME FAVE SONG BY PRINCE FOLLOWED BY 'LADY CAB DRIVER". AS FAR AS FUNK GOES COMPARED TO "MORE BOUNCE TO THE OUNCE" HOW WOULD, IN YOUR OPIONION, "CONTROVERSY" AND "LADY CAB DRIVER" HOLD UP? SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

Lady Cab Driver IS one of the funkiest things P has done, if not THE funkiest. That's why I listed it. I don't think it's funkier than "More Bounce" though. "Lady Cab" definately has more going on in the song. The rock breakdown part in the song is one of the coldest things I have ever heard by anyone. But it's a different kind of funk. "More Bounce" just grabs a hold of that groove and never lets up. Much in the same way as James Brown. Roger's rythmn guitar is so wicked and in the pocket, that he even fucks around with the lick and is still in pocket. Prince's rythmn is tight as hell on "Lady Cab" also.

"More bounce" is funk perfection. The Org is the short yellow bus of the Prince Internet fan community. | |

 "More Bounce" is definitely in the Funk Hall Of Fame!!
...and that rhythm guitar is tighter than a gnat's ass!! Lady Cab Driver is pretty close, though( IMO, LCD, Let's Work and 777-9311 are 3 of Prince's tightest Funk workouts...

More Bounce. "Let's Work" is probably my favorite funk jam by Prince. Still, MORE BOUNCE makes me bounce more!  | |

Zapp's 'More Bounce To The Ounce' is much more funkier than 'Controversy' IMO, although 'Controversry' is IMO one of Prince's best funk trax. Roger and Zapp made some great funk and R&B trax and ballads too. I would say 'Dancefloor' is one of Zapp's best funk/R&B trax and I'd also include the following which IMO r also great examples of Roger and Zapp's music:
Funky Bounce I Heard It Through The Grapevine So Ruff, So Tuff I Can Make You Dance Heartbreaker Doesn't Really Matter amongst others Roger & Zapp r my fave band and they made such great music and Roger Troutman was a fantastic musician, he could play saxophone, harmonica, keyboards, drums, guitar and also pioneered the usage of the 'Talkbox' which can still b heard on Rap/Dance and R&B trax 2day. Prince IMO, made his funkiest music in the early 1980's, espically with 'The Time' so I'd say Prince's songs he wrote 4 Morris & The Time r very cool funky trax of which trax like 'Get It Up', 'Cool' and '777-9311' r comparable 2 Roger and Zapp's best songs but IMO, Roger & Zapp were an awesome band and Roger's music, like Prince's is still being sampled 2day. | |

I'd like 2 have seen Shock G and Roger work 2gether, they woulda made so real cool funky music!. Shock G also sampled Zapp's 'Computer Love' 4 'I Get Around' with Tupac (another fave Digital Underground trax's). Shock also remixed Prince's 'Love Sign'. | |

I HAD THE PLEASURE OF METTING ROGER ABOUT 7 OR 8 MONTHS BEFORE HE DIED, AND HE WAS A VERY COOL DOWN 2 EARTH BROTHER. VERY GRACIOUS. LIKE U SAID, ROGER AND ZAPP WERE ONE OF THE GREATEST FUNK/R&B/ROCK BANDS NOT ONLY FROM THE 80'S BUT EVER. "SO RUFF, SO TUFF" HAS IN MY OPIONION THE FUNKIEST RYTHMN GUITAR EVER. IT IS WICKED! IT HAS A HARDER EDGE 2 IT THAN"MORE BOUNCE". ALL OF ZAPP'S AND ROGER'S SOLO ALBUMS R TOP NOTCH. ZAPP PAYED TRIBUTE 2 PRINCE WITH "ITCHIN FOR YOUR TWITCH". THAT AND "HEARTBREAKER" HAS SOME GREAT ROCK LEADS BY ROGER. HE IS TRULY MISSED. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

IT 'READS' LIKE YOU'RE YELLING, AND IT MAKES IT HARD TO READ YOUR SENTENCES, BECAUSE IT ALL LOOKS LIKE ONE LONG HEADLINE. Turn off Caps Lock, and then I'll be able to get through your story. I'd love to read it, but it's damn near impossible to read cuz THE WORDS ARE ALL CAPITALIZED AND BIG AND SCREAMING. But hell no, Flashlight blows both them other songs outta da club. But second would be More Bounce. How come radio doesn't play that song? Why do they always play that stupidass Doo Wah Ditty instead? I haven't heard More Bounce in years.

Didn't Roger Zapp and Prince tour together back in the day? Didn't Roger open for him on the Controversy tour? The Org is the short yellow bus of the Prince Internet fan community. | |
