Talking Book and Innervisions are absolutely great albums
Superstition is a GOAT single sure, but Maybe Your Baby is so bad I can't make it through half of it. He's way too fond of that synth too, totally bloats a lot of the songs.

I don't want more people to find out about Utopia because then it'll be obvious where we nicked the sample from on our record and we'll get caught.

Jedeye i think you're letting your prejudice against certain instruments/production styles cloud your judgment.
It's kind of like saying "this chef is crap because he uses chicken as an ingredient"

Using chicken as an ingredient usually isn't a breach of copyright.
NEIN!
Talking Book, Innervisions, songs in the key of life, fulfillingness, music of my mind... Yes there is about 20% cheese (which I like) but some really amazing soul music in there.
Prince...yes you need to be able to accept a bit of synth, but honestly there's not as much as you'd think. I could do you a list of amazing songs, but not sure you would listen to them! But at his best he's a mix of everything, jazz, punk, Soul, house, funk, psychedelia, pop...
...with a pile of rule breaking and innovation too. Srsly. He is one of the best ever. And then when you realise he plays every instrument...
Talking Book and Innervisions are absolutely great albums
Yes!

Well, I'm currently nearing the part of the year famous for intense boredom and soul-death so I will give the Prince catalogue a listen when I run out of NEW and SHINY to keep me occupied.
The three I like the most are
Dirty Mind - it's very new wave with lots of synth but it's also really catchy.
Around the world in a day - the Prince version of Sgt Pepper, without this album, no Beck (there's a song called Tambourine which is so Beck it's bonkers)
Sign O The Times- it takes a few listens but it's really, really, really one of the best albums ever made by a human.
That's the thing with all of his work though - he's a difficult and contrary bugger. He wont remaster any of his albums and every time he does anything successful he goes off in the other direction. I don't think any of his albums really get you until the fourth or fifth listen.

New "Lord Weird Slough Feg" album finally arrived today! It's bloody great, great lyrical work, and some brilliant riffs in there. Only 40 minutes long, but it's one hell of a musical journey! "Magic Hooligan" and "Bertrand Russel's Sex Den" in particular are killer.
Love me some Slough Feg! <3

Welcome! Sit down, make yourself at home, I'll pop the kettle on. Tea or coffee?
Anyone else want one?
You're doing yourself a disservice
Tbh I do too. For some reason I don't mind with Prince. And to be honest, a lot of his records aren't that guilty of that horrible sound.
As you know, I just love grand follies and almost every one of his albums is a grand folly in one way or another "I'm going to better Sgt Peppers!" "I am going to release the most filthy album ever!" "I am going to be the next Fellini and here is the soundtrack!" "Oh look. I have no record label. Here is a quadruple album!"

I guess you could say there was latex involved..lol
self loathing pretty hard right now, I can't believe I shagged the bird, I then told the girl I was seeing and she sounded angry
Well, assuming I have the good fortune to have money, I will pop up on the train to London Waterloo for around two o' clock GMT. Depending on where you are I will then journey towards you, although I must say if you aren't in central I will be wearing a burberry suit. Is nobody else about or is this a date?
Tea for me, please. Four sweeteners.
All are welcome. I'm meeting Musha at 5.30ish.
I won't take you to a sex dungeon, but I might stretch to either a coffee or a bottled beer. Maybe. If you chip in.
Burberry suit, eh? I think Christopher Bailey is a genius.

Tash, I love you. But not as much as I love Bill Withers.
Got a house sorted, aww yiss. Still need to send over references and stuff, but it seems like a done deal.
Also, I clicked your profile, you are from Lancaster. So am I originally. Bros and stuff.

Thanks guys, load off my mind. My bro doesn't mess about, he gets shit done. Excite rising!
Yeah, that gif is an all time favourite. Go Maisie go! Her feet just shuffle so cool. Then the way she swags it out at the end, what a ledge.
Watching last week's GoT, lol at the line about Ygritte's ginger minge. Mint.
Preston Quiche? Small world, I know (knew) it well.
Edit: nice one Mush, gotta have that work life balance.

I just realised something, I'm meant to be going on a career break as far as work are concerned, even though it's just a safety net, I have no intention of going back. But my gaffer is going to get a phone call from the new landlord today, kind of gives the game away innit.
Oops!
Some posters get a pass, some get a "dude, wut". I always lulz when someone goes "haha, guy who likes Paramore doesn't like "x" band." If only I didn't readily mock that myself this post wouldn't seem so utterly redundant...

Mocking other member's musical taste is fun. But it's of course more/less hilarious depending on how subjectively shit the mocker's taste is.

That's our new band name right there, Jed.
I dunno, from my extremely limited interaction with her, she seemed a little bit snobby/uber-hip for my liking (and that's me saying that). A very London musician, you know the sort. Super talented though.
A little bit from Column A, a little bit from Column B.
