dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Asking Alexandria got it today. Can't wait to listen to it. AA is a very good band. Seen them live many times and they rock. Going to see them in Dallas next Friday and got VIP meet and greet tickets and so excited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite it's success at the time, it has aged like sour milk. I know many of the outtakes already and there's a few good tracks in there for sure, but a D&P super deluxe would've been way, way down my list of desired projects from his estate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s quite a bit of filler on D&P for sure but there is some of my favourite songs on that album (Cream, Gett Off, Strollin’, Thunder, Push) so I can’t help but be excited for them. I think all the extra stuff is what really makes it an exciting purchase. I would’ve preferred if they could’ve mixed both D&P and Love Symbol Album in to a box set, I’ve kind of viewed them as a pair as the sound/style is so similar but then I guess the size and price would be insane.

Yo! Prince is actually my favourite artist of all time. Unreal talent and discography of material. The fact the man could release an album every year of the 80s (apart from '83) with each building on the last and being different and unique, whilst also producing for dozens of other artists and writing hits like NCTU and Manic Monday and just giving them away! The man created his own competition (while Kiss was #1, MM was #2!), he created a scene and sound and as revered as he is, I often think, while part of the big 3 with Madge and MJ, he is often left behind due to at times, not being as commercial and certainly he paved his own path and did not tow the line...D&P gets a mixed reception, some love the new direction and the introduction of the NPG! While others think it was the one time he chased trends and are stuck in the 80s and can't get past The Revolution.....the brilliant thing about P is, he was always 3 albums ahead of his fan base...if you didn't like him yet, he was coming for your tastes eventually with something for you....D&P was chasing the New Jack Swing era, Teddy Riley style (See MJ Dangerous etc) however it is definitely in P's inimitable style...I think D&P is front loaded with 6 to 7 cracking tunes which will really benefit from a facelift with the great Bernie Grubdmans remastering....he did wonders on 1999 and SOTT, this album has dated production wise, I think it'll lift it a lot! There's some great material on there and it's probably P's most collaborative effort, actually letting the band write and play more... Like a lot of P though, it's the stuff that didn't get out of the Park that is often better or at least more interesting...why did he not use this version on the LP, it's sooo much more alive, what a vocal!!! It's on the Super Deluxe as an alternative!! I've ordered already, I'll probably drone on more later now I've found some P fans in here!

It's on the Super Deluxe as an alternative!! I've ordered already, I'll probably drone on more later now I've found some P fans in here! Agree with everything! To be honest as much as I love The Revolution era and Prince of the late 80’s (what most casuals or even some big fans prefer) there is something about entire 90’s era Prince that is just perfection to me. So many albums, triple albums included, so many sounds, so much daring choices he made musically and professionally/personally. He completely shifted gears at the beginning of the 90’s and it was brilliant. I’m hoping for a remaster of Come or Chaos And Disorder at some point down the line🤞🏼 Also love that video of W&A, beautiful performance from all of them. Will always have a soft spot for Rosie’s backing vocals. Also fun fact for any members reading this, Michael Bland (Prince/NPG drummer) apparently auditioned for Guns in ‘97/‘98ish Edited August 27, 2023 by D4NNY 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Experience is very understated beyond the big fans too. What a diverse rock album that is. Touring with hardly any of the hits anymore in that era too! He was basically never influenced by anything other than where his head was currently at. When referred to as "The Artist" it's completely fitting, as he embodied complete artistry and mastery of his craft! Apart from engineering too quickly his material himself at times....he should of delagated that a bit more....Bernie is a master and he's gonna make this sound so much better! It's so telling that his influence is with every kinda musician and style ...Look at a punk kid like Duff....his most influential album on his playing he said was "1999"...that would surprise a lot. Not Iggy or whatever, Prince! Loved his write up in the SDE for that! You seem like a big fan, so you'll no doubt have seen this...of not, how about this to bookend the 90s, the era you loved! It's like he's possessed, channeling some pain and the crowd is insane, the way he works them and the solo.....jesus! Channeling some of the Chaos and Disorder rock.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Comstock Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 Maneskin dropped a new song a few days ago and they're playing another new song on this tour that kicked off yesterday, Hopefully they drop an EP or a deluxe edition of their latest album before the year is over...

Gordon Comstock Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Really looking forward to the Struts album. The acoustic version of the title track that they released months ago was great, and the studio version is great too. Can't wait to see them live in about a month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
