PRINCE Lotusflow3r/MPLSound / 2x LP NEW VINYL+2X CD / Because 2016

NOTE: shrink has been opened to replace defective disc, but VINYL IS MINT & UNPLAYED

2016 repress. Originally released in 2009. For more than thirty years, Prince indefatigably attacked the bulwarks which separate funk, rock, pop and hip-hop. This is a deluxe gatefold release composed of two slabs of vinyl (both albums also included on CDs) as well as a poster. "On LotusFlow3r Prince has a specific mission: showcasing his long-underrated guitar playing. Whether it's the spare funk of 'Wall of Berlin,' the metal grind of 'Dreamer' or the hazy cover of 'Crimson and Clover,' the music kicks into high gear when Prince starts soloing, delivering one epic face melter after another in a style halfway between David Gilmour's and Eddie Hazel's."

On MPLSound, Prince took his retro mission to offer up such tight, funky electro grooves as "(There'll Never B) Another Like Me" and "Ol' Skool Company." Part of what was originally released as a triple album is also included here with Lotusflow3r. "Prince played every instrument on MPLSound just like the old days, only now he gets obsessive with Pro Tools. He isn't as bawdy as he once was (becoming a Jehovah's Witness will do that), but he's still got a lot of humor and swagger. On the funky '(There'll Never B) Another Like Me,' he sings about his beauty routine (it involves olive oil in his hair), and on the seven-and-a-half-minute 'Ol' Skool Company,' he covers issues from the TARP bailout to the state of radio ('If the White House is black/We gotta take the radio back')."
