Awesome review! My favorite is Darling Nikki. Wasn't it one of the first songs to be banned from the radio? I have an original vinyl copy of this my mom gave to me that she used to listen to in the '80s, so I love hearing it in that form.

I find a lot of red blooded males are closet fans of Prince so its so refreshing to hear it when a guy can get down with Prince and be proud. My husband is a proud Prince fan too and always tries to hit the high notes/scream/pouts only to epically fail, but its still cute.

It's a pretty great record. For the time he was pretty innovative when it came to artists. The man was insanely creative and was a breath of fresh air when it came down to popular music at the time when that record dropped.

When it comes down to my favorite songs, the self titled song is my favorite. The guitar work is pretty damn impressive especially when performed live. 'Darling Nicky', 'When Doves Cry' and 'Take Me With You' are pretty great to. **** there are no bad songs on this record it's all pretty solid there's nothing I don't like.

I didn't know that liking Prince was a thing to keep in the closet? I've got a ton of his albums and just assumed that was par for the course for music nerds.
