You skipped over "Sign O the Times".

Here's where I was

Like most Black folks, I also discovered Prince by the second album with I Wanna Be Your Lover. I didn't care about the slow jams at all. I think I liked the pop/rock songs more.

Dirty Mind. I loved this album. I liked that he got freaky.

"Controversy": I was all over it. My favorite cut is "Let's Work". The 12" was even better. Timmy, as a fan of the funk, i'm surprised you don't care for that song.

1999: Like you, I skip over "Little Red Corvette". No rhythm. No groove. I liked DMSR. Other than that, I have no use for the album. I favored "Irresistable Bitch".

"Purple Rain" was in my wheelhouse.

I dug the "Around The World In A Day" album. That whole album is fantastic, except the song "America".

"Parade". Funky-ass album. Beautiful melodies.

After that, my interest gradually declined. I liked parts of Sign O The Times. "Hot Thing" was a bright spot. And I dig "The Gold Experience".
