PRINCE "PURPLE RAIN" 1984. #1 Aust/UK/US
what can i say about this one? its funk, its pop, its psuedo-psychadelia, its rock.....its Prince!
Prince has always reminded my of a 1980s Little Richard: flambouyant,extrovert, performer/entertainer,and like Little richard...he is truly unique and underrated/forgotten by the general public.
nine tracks of dance,ballads,rock and a seven and a half minute opus,in the title track. this was Prince at the start of international stardom at the top of his game. he was the only one who could match Michael Jackson for quality and class in the mid 1980s, this album is so good that any of the nine tracks could have been released as singles and been massive hits.
worst track: 'none'
best track: darling nikki
