  • So check this out. Back in 1979 I was in College in Mississippi and for homecoming they had an almost all-night after party outside on campus that I was at partially sober. It had a bunch of funk bands and one of them was this sweaty hyper kid named Prince. There was also Cameo and the Bar-K’s if I remember right. I remember thinking “that’s guys pretty good and hyper, but he needs a name people are gonna remember… “Prince” is not original enough. I shoulda gone and talked to him, after he got done he was just walking around eating pizza and hanging out with whoever would talk to him.

  • @coloringpad Wait, Prince released an album and didn't split the tracks? That only works on cassette and vinyl, which CDs are not. (I admit I don't split tracks for EPs and albums I upload to Soundcloud, because I don't know how to make seamless transitions from one track to the next work on SoundCloud. The tracks on my EPs/albums tend to bleed into one another.) "Dark Side of the Moon" is an amazing album too!

    @Gravitas Twice in one night?! That's lucky!

    @NoiseHorse "'Prince' is not original enough". Oh the sweet summer child you were, lol. I remember talking to (I think it was) LeAnn Rimes after a show before her fame truly skyrocketed. I can't remember what was said as that was in the 90s. What a talent!

    Ho. Ly. Crap.
    Wow.

    Mississippi with a freak show in 1979! Good on them! For You was out in '78. Prince (self titled) in '79. Dirty Mind in '80. You caught songs from some of those albums for sure! Impressive. "Soft and Wet," "I Wanna Be Your Lover," "I Feel 4 U,"When U Were Mine," "Head." Goddamn dude.

    ONE. TRACK. ONLY.

    If you pressed forward, it started again.
    I thought my new CD player was broken!
    So you let go of the FF button for a millisecond? Let's start over!

    Song 1 "Eye No" Good... Really preachy though... So are a lot of his great songs. Not religious or even affiliated, but goddamn The Cross is epic.
    Song 2 "Alphabet St." Up there with Kiss. Fantastic.
    Song 3 "Glam Slam" Just god awful make it stop make it stop!
    And so on.... 3 skippable songs for sure, and "When 2 R in Love" (a snoozer) was on the Black Album.

    Short song called "I Wish U Heaven" was towards the end followed by "Positivity." Rarely got a listen unless I wanted to babysit the FF button. And heaven forbid I try to REW!

    That dude always hated new technology and even new things. The internet. CD's obviously for me at least in 1988 (1988 CDs outsold vinyl, 1989 CDs outsold cassettes). And even rap! (Notoriously dissed rap on the song Dead On It on the Black Album... Kinda nailed the dismount though, but awful opening to the song.) Yet, if he didn't have that Linn LM-1, where would we be?! Listen for the clap on EVERY song. It's hard not to notice once it becomes blatantly pointed out... Go ahead, try it!

    EDIT: You got me all excited about Prince! Going to go listen to some now...

    Some additional totally wanna tell you info...

    Wendy & Lisa (Still have a crush!) released an album called Eroica in 1990. It's pretty damn good for the era. "Staring at the Sun," "Don't Try to Tell Me," "Rainbow Lake," and "Porch Swing" have a Around the World in A Day/Parade feel... Certainly not Prince, and a synthesized/studio 1989 feel.... but the lyrics and imagery are loving and great. Would not be surprised if PRN wrote some lyrics, but also Wendy & Lisa were highly influential to him and their writing isn't to be slept on. They could entirely be their own lyrics. Lisa was the first woman nominated for a grammy for Producer of the Year on Purple Rain. Both won for Best Soundtrack that year, equally credited with Prince and John Nelson. I don't know if Eroica is all them, although it probably is..... But I kinda want a secret Prince song on their album. I like to think "Porch Swing" is about Prince though!

    Chaka Khan. Yes.

    Sheila E. Oh my. My word. A definite yes on my musical kink list. Just tie me down and play drums. Yeah, I said it.

    I'm making a joke about Sheila... (blushes) Kinda.

    His live version of Nothing Compares 2 U, with Sinead's cover being an all time best Top 10 cover of all time, is somehow better. The way he sings "2 U" in the lyric is in (I think) a major scale, which is so fitting.

    (I use a lot of parentheses. My stories are parentheses.)

    And "I wonder U" is the best Prince song on his albums with only a female vocal.

    HUNDALASILIAH!

    Sacrilege, but I’m more wowed by you seeing early Cameo (as much as I love Prince). Cameo’s early Chocolate City output was so dope. Tight tight band.
