Purple Rain: The Official Prince Thread.

[Lament]

I stopped downloading stuff earlier this year. My computer was getting super fucked up from it. I'm not very skilled when it comes to that kind of stuff.

[VinylGuy]

I can send them tomorrow.

[Lament]

That'd be awesome.

[VinylGuy]

Sent.

[Lament]

Art Official Age is no joke, man. We'll see how well it holds up over the next few months, but this is seriously good stuff.

I need to spend more time with PlectrumElectrum still.

Either way, you're awesome, VinylGuy.

[VinylGuy]

No, you are!

Yeah AOA is a big deal. Im still impressed with it.

Plectrumelectrum is a different beast but goddamn it rocks hard!

Wow is my favorite there. Good way to start an album.

[Lament]

I'd probably be more into PlectrumElectrum right now if AOA wasn't so good. But I keep going back to AOA.

[VinylGuy]

yeah, i began to listen to AOA and got me hooked instantly.

Best album since..?

[Lament]

Definitely the best since The Rainbow Children for me. Maybe even best since The Gold Experience.

[VinylGuy]

yeah, feels like the most cohesive work in a while.

Im surprised on how good the band is.

[Lament]

There's an edge to it has been lacking in most of his work lately.

[VinylGuy]

True.

Feels like he is going for it. Like he has something to prove i dont know.

Not sure if this has been posted or not, but somehow I stubled across this - found it fascinating

[William Bloke]

Purple Rain came on as the last song on a playlist I was rocking last night. What a great song that is!

[VinylGuy]

Lament how are the albums holding up for ya?

This story is gold.

[Lament]

Art Official Age is a pleasant surprise. I'm not ready to definitely call it my favorite post-Gold Experience record, but if it holds up for another few months I probably will.

I think I need to give PlectrumElectrum a chance outside of the context of Art Official Age, because so far AOA kinda overshadows it.

[VinylGuy]

I had to stop listening to them because it was non stop for llike a month.

Yeah plectrumelectrum is a different beast. Its a really good and fun album but art official is really a masterpiece.

I don't think it's been confirmed yet, but yeah, seems likely. People are gonna lose their shit if Bowie and Prince die in the same year.
