...In "Jane From Occupied Europe"
Pretty decent I suppose. The bottom four aren't really all-time favourites, or albums I listen to with any regularity these days, but solid albums nonetheless.
Prince is probably quite unlucky here as it's probably my personal favourite of his, but the albums above are truly great. Gotta love the post-punk love-fest. So yeah, overall it's a good year but not one of my best.
