This was the album that shot Prince into the big time and into my heart all because of one of the century's most played songs ~ the excellent '1999', which is still as fresh as the day it was born.

This album is truly brilliant and showed the first real signs that Prince was going to become a megastar, the CD goes from the funky 'Delirious' to the sophisticated 'Something In The Water' and of course everybody knows 'Little Red Corvette.

'Lady Cab Driver' is one of his most gorgeous of songs, makes me go all weak at the knees, phew!

Prince shows a stunning display of raw talent in this album, not wallowing indulgence which he has been accused of doing. If you're listening to '1999' there is something about the 1980's that pops up every time, really experimental kind of funk and hip-hop.

But I reckon all of his songs are equally addictive. It's definitely among Prince's best work and is a must for any record collection.

Buy it NOW!!!!

I love this album too. I want to hear the new one - I've missed his music, I have all of Prince's albums except Musicology, and I guess it won't be long til I get that either!

I have to agree with you on this amazing album by Prince. It was the first album I owned by him before going to buy previously released stuff (Black, For You, Prince). My fanourite song is, 'Little Red Corvette'. I love the diversity of the lyrics, the way he can change mood without changing the beat and the fact I can still listen to it to this day and remember great times of growing up. I too recomend this album and think you have done it true justice with your opinion!!
