Agreed. My review of Planet Earth is: "what IS this?" These are definitely
the rehearsal sessions from Rainbow Children and Musicology. I'm happy to
hear him playing interesting guitar a little more, but I wish he'd play more
guitar on less hokey songs.
Couldn't he have sold Sony that C-Note album or something? Rainbow Children?
Then maybe people would actually HEAR that album? This Sony/Motown stuff is
hard to listen to. I am clearly an indie label Prince fan, I guess, because
this is two of these crappy albums in a ROW. I hope he has some bootleg
something planned.
That being said, I think it would take "Sign O The Times Part 2" to please
some of us fans. We're really hard on him. I know I am. But that's what
happens.
<Moderator: When I heard the title "Planet Earth" for the first time I
didn't know what to expect. I was really hoping for a SOTT Part 2. PE is a
great title track and it would of been nice if he Prince had built on
that.
Maybe if he was a more worldly person. I he needs to get out and be the
streets again. Visit a third world country. Experience the life when you
don't have millions of dollars to comfort you. He is way too shelters.
Worry too much about the music industry and not the art that pays the
bills. I am sorry but I can't relate anymore. -Derek>
