Edited one year ago2nd Album Revolution #11:
After "Prince's" untimely death, strange things happened...
The strangest thing is that for some reason, it seemed that "Prince" didn't have a Lliving Will...Now, I don't believe that one bit (NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT!!!!!)!!!!!
With that being said, the so called powers that be (Know as "The Prince Estate") couldn't seem to wait to crack open the famous "Prince Vault" to see what they could release...This was not what "Prince" really wanted, or at least, maybe he would have done so some time down the road...I have mix views about it, but at the same time being that "Prince" Guy, I always was curious about the Recordings he had in there, and wanted to hear them....
The 1st release was the calm and subdued "Piano & A Microphone 1983"....
We have seen this before on the "One Night Alone" album, but we didn't know he did stuff like this back in the day (makes much sense though)....
"17 Days" sounds "Funky" on Piano....
The Medley of "Purple Rain" and "A Case Of You" was cool (you can tell he really loved "Joni Mitchell").....
His version of "Mary Don't You Weep" is straight up STUNNING (The Crown Jewel)!!!!!! It was so good that director "Spike Lee" had to have it in the Movie "BlackKKlansman"....
Also Piano versions of "Strange Relationship", "International Lover" and "Wednesday" are must have...
The album caps off with 2 unreleased songs in "Cold Coffee & Cocaine" and "Why The Butterflies"....
When I bought this, I had to remind myself that this was the first album I would buy with "Prince" gone...That kind of makes me EMOTIONAL....Well, get ready, because this man could Record in his sleep, there will be many more to come....
