A nice lil collection of pop-funk-R&B like jams courtesy of the Symbol we know as Prince. My favorite track by far is TRACK TWO_ too smooth vocals, with a weird little swoosh-like sound effect loop that reminds me of something out of Sailor Moon. Prince delivers the Beautiful Girl song in diverse ways, some sound better than the band worked original. Track 1 is a Dance-Funk remake that you can shake your beautylisciousness to, track two is my groove choice (I like to put this one on repeat), track three delivers it even slower, so you can include on your Get-Jiggy compliation for that candlelit dinner for two. Then if you're a music lover, 4 & 5 dishes out the instrumentals in a funky way. Track 6 is the only one I have a problem with- and so does my beautiful girlfriend> she says, a girl never looks at herself in the mirror and think: this dress is too hot, he (her date) won't be able to sit still, so I won't wear it (like in song). It's more like: This dress makes me look fat, (or even) this dress makes me look hot, yeah I'll wear it. Track 7 gives you the original song. If anything, learn the words to this song and sing it to your girlfriend at night, she'll think you're the Most Beautiful Guy in the world, and fellas that's all good

1999 RTI PRESSED 180 GRAM OUT OF PRINT 2008 RELEASE - Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 163/500!

Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering & Pressed at RTI on 180g Vinyl!

Released in 1982, 1999 was the fifth album to be released by Prince. His breakthrough album was the first album to feature The Revolution and contains "1999", "Little Red Corvette" and "Delirious".

The album was critically and commercially successful setting into motion two years of successful tours, hit singles and even a Hollywood movie. 1999 was ranked number 163 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time in 2003.

"I didn't want to do a double album, Prince said, "but I just kept on writing. Of course, I'm not one for editing." The second half of 1999 is just exceptional sex-obsessed dance music; the first half is the best fusion of rock and funk achieved to that date, and it lays out the blueprint for Prince's next decade. Except for a few background hand claps and vocals, Prince plays most every instrument himself and creates a relentless, irresistible musical sequence of apocalypse ("1999") and the raunchy sex that he proposes as the only possible response — "Little Red Corvette," "Let's Pretend We're Married," "Delirious" and, well, just about every other song on the album." -

CONTROVERSY RTI PRESSED 180 GRAM OUT OF PRINT 2008 RELEASE - Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering & Pressed at RTI on 180g Vinyl!

Prince's fourth album, Controversy, contains falsetto whoops, upbeat synthesizers, and funky bass lines, expanding on his previous album, Dirty Mind. The 1981 release peaked at number 21 on the U.S. Billboard 200.

Few artists have created a body of work as rich and varied as Prince. During the '80s, he emerged as one of the most singular talents of the rock & roll era, capable of seamlessly tying together pop, funk, folk, and rock. Not only did he release a series of groundbreaking albums; he toured frequently, produced albums and wrote songs for many other artists, and recorded hundreds of songs that still lie unreleased in his vaults. With each album he released, Prince showed remarkable stylistic growth and musical diversity, constantly experimenting with different sounds, textures, and genres. Occasionally, his music can be maddeningly inconsistent because of this eclecticism, but his experiments frequently succeed; no other contemporary artist can blend so many diverse styles into a cohesive whole.

DIRTY MIND RTI PRESSED 180 GRAM OUT OF PRINT 2008 RELEASE -  Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 206/500!

Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering & Pressed at RTI on 180g Vinyl!

The third studio album by the iconic pop star was originally released in 1980 and was produced, arranged and composed primarily by the artist himself. By the cover and the title, one could surmise the musical content would be primarily sexual in nature. The critically acclaimed album debuted at number 63 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart.

"A mix of slinky funk, synth-driven rock, jittery pop and sexual innuendo, Dirty Mind hinted where Prince was headed. It includes the world's merriest done-me-wrong song, "When You Were Mine," and the incest ditty "Sister." "I wasn't being deliberately provocative," Prince said. "I was being deliberately me." -

PURPLE RAIN RTI PRESSED 180 GRAM OUT OF PRINT 2008 RELEASE  Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 76/500!

Prince designed "Purple Rain" as the project that would make him a superstar, and surprisingly, that is exactly what happened. Simultaneously more focused and ambitious than any of his previous records, "Purple Rain" finds Prince consolidating his funk and R&B roots while moving boldly into pop,rock, and heavy metal with nine superbly crafted songs. Although Prince's songwriting is at a peak, the presence of the Revolution pulls the music into sharper focus, giving it a tougher, more aggressive edge. Even with all of his new, but uncompromising, forays into pop Prince hasn't abandoned funk. Taken together, all of the stylistic experiments add up to a stunning statement of purpose that remains one of the most exciting rock & roll albums ever created.

"The blockbuster soundtrack to Prince's semi- autobiographical movie was raunchy enough to inspire Tipper Gore to form the Parents Music Resource Center. It also showcases Prince's abilities as a guitarist, especially on "Let's Go Crazy." The breakthrough hit, "When Doves Cry," has no bass track: Looking for a different sound, Prince removed it, making one more unforgettable single. The title track was inspired by Bob Seger, of all people — when Prince was touring behind 1999 Seger was playing many of the same markets. Prince didn't understand his appeal but decided to try writing a crossover hit, a ballad in the Seger mode." -
