That "Terry Lewis" comment makes sense to me now

He has that band in serious shape
Something about the energy in these rehearsals has me excited again
I wonder if that energy has been put to new music

Back to this though...His Rhythm guitar playing was killing it
Based on this and dance elec, I love how Ida is exceeding her expectations with the groove

the groove is cool, the background vocals take or leave. ice cream castles was always corny and sounded like a Partridge family outtake IMO, but when he did it with "White Girls Jam" then it was cool IMO and the only time i could tolerate Ice Cream castles.

86 cherry moon celebration party where he did Mutiny with controversy is still the best version of it.

this is cool, however those synths again ain't seeing his peak and Prime. the Bam Board ain't hitting like it did back in the day to me.

Miami Heat, New York Yankees,buffalo bills

in a decade when a lot of synths sounded cheesy, his was some of the best

but modern synths in r&b and funk can be really bad

Were my only gripe
They just ain't hitting the way they used to
Even when the o7 was performing, jam and monte's synths weren't hitting either
Grab then damn oberheim's and

My fav mutiny of all time is the 'Paul punk of the month' version...
That's some cold shit on so many levels

I agree with you on the ice cream castles part....I have never liked ice cream castles.....I liked what Prince did for sheila e on oliver's house and he put his foot in oliver's house and those two songs basically have the same groove....ill go even further and say that I liked what Roger did with private lover with a lil bit of oliver's house and ice cream castles mixed in....

Prince should do small venues again like he did during the One night Alone tour and play all obscure songs and outtakes. That would be great. He has more energy when he isn't playing the same tired stuff over and over again.

I beamed when he shouted "white girls", something tells me he knows we've been following these bootleg remasters lol,,,,
