This collection of singles and their b-sides sums up the extremes the career of Prince has gone to.
The singles all have hit written all over them but the b-sides leave you bored as he goes through the motions churning out bog standard r&b / pop.
From the pure pop hits like Let's Go Crazy, 1999, Raspberry Beret and much of the later more smutty stuff like Cream, Kiss * Sexy Mother F****r could get even your disabled Granny twitching.
But the shame is that once you get past his prime he is all too often outshone by the young naked upstarts of today.
Still respected for his back catalogue rather than his current output if only he could be bothered he could still be relevant today.
