    30+ years ago my brother bought sign of the times album, I said, “uuurggh ! Prince is shit”, my brother said listen to it then talk, I listened and couldn’t believe it. I joined a Prince fan club based in Otley called revolution and got tickets for Wembley Arena, Lovesexy tour, ohh man, it was a thrilling adventure, The Ford Thunderbird got the show rolling, Prince sang ‘Adore’ to Cat while she was on the swing, cops chasing Prince all over the place, he actually ran full speed and slid between Cats legs and snatched her skirt away ha ha. It will be forever the greatest show on earth…..for me. What a genius we have lost, his music is mine forever.

    All of Prince’s versions of the Family’s songs are better and made me like them better. I had the album when it first came out and St. Paul wasn’t really selling it in my opinion.

    This version is better, no disrespect to Mr James Brown, but I think Prince was the hardest working man in show business

    • @simkla9975
      @simkla9975 2 роки тому +2

      Sorry James Brown changed shit, yet really musically and lyrically Prince makes Browns seem..well.
      Less.
      At least.

      Its the lineage. Prince worked his ass off because he studied James Brown, his output, his work ethic, his drive. James was his hero and he took on the batton........who worked harder? Its a coin toss, but what you can say is without James Brown there would be no prince. Who has the batton now? We could do with D'angelo putting in a shift thats for sure.

    I believe that one of the greatest mistakes he made was giving the songs on The Family album over to them. If he’d put them out himself - Mutiny, Nothing Compares To You, and this song - they’d have counted among his greatest contributions to music and culture forever.

    Prince is such a genius. This raw recording is awesome. I see several people say they like the Family's version better, which is different and awesome. Prince fully produced that version and gave it a totally richer, slower version, with the Clare Fischer string touch. Masterful versions, non the less.

    I like that this is the more "jam" version of the tune, but the real sensuality it conveys comes out in The Family's more sultry version. Not to mention the velvet bed of Clare Fischer's gorgeous string arrangement...
