Pros: Some slammin' funk, including the absolutely classic "Kiss". Cons: Slightly pretentious, as best exhibited on the mincing, fey "Do U Lie"?
There are many memorable things about the movie "Purple Rain". Excellent music and dancing from Prince and The Time. Those bizarre Eighties fashions. Appollonia's voluptuous funbags on display after Prince tells her to purify herself in the waters of ...
Pros: Life Can be So Nice, Mountain, Kiss, Anotherloverholenyohead Cons: Do U Lie?
Say the name PURPLE RAIN to the average radio listener, and they'll know what you mean. They might even recognize GRAFFITI BRIDGE, but ask them about PARADE and you're bound to get a blank stare.
Pros: Prince made a new movie, this is the soundtrack, well it might be the soundtrack. Cons: Prince made a new movie and as movies go the soundtrack is better.
Requested Update:
While I believe that some opinions should be able to stand on their own, this is a four part retrospective on the early work of Prince, I guess by the time I got to Parade I ran out of gas. Rest Assured that...
Pros: Production, Jazz Suites, Arrangements, Performance, Guest Musicians, Lyrics, & Prince's Vocals. Cons: Not as Memorable as Other Albums.
After the release of the psychedelic-inspired Around the World in a Day, Prince and his band the Revolution made a completely unorthodox move with that album to follow-up the mega-successful Purple Rain album. Though Around the World ...
Pros: Good group of songs from an ever-widening vault of wonder. Cons: It could perhaps use more length as a soundtrack album.
Parade represents Prince and the Revolution at their creative zenith. I was 16 and a junior in high school when this album was released, and I had just become a fan, hungry to swallow up any and everything from my latest and greatest influence at that...
Pros: A lot of beautiful, romantic, and sexy tunes. Cons: Some weird and unusual tunes.
Compared to Prince's 1984 album "Purple Rain" and many of his other successes, this album is much different in style. Personally, this is one of my favorite albums, as you can see by the name. There isn't as much "funk" as on some of...
Pros: Kiss, Girls & Boys, New Position Cons: uneven, unfocused
Prince has (apparently) been quoted as saying "Parade was a disaster. Apart from 'Kiss,' there's nothing on it I'm particularly proud of." This is a decent summary, if perhaps a bit too self-critical. For 1986's Parade, despite what many...
Recently I was in an used CD store looking for hard to find CDs of my favorite artists. Prince's "Under the Cherry Moon" practically filled up the whole shelf.
From what I remembered of the tape I had before, I really didn't recall that...
