Since no one has mentioned it: Prince - Musicology Damn. The title track to his new disc is just ridiculously funky. Right now I'm having a hard time doing another 9 because I'm listening to Vivaldi.

groovyjazzyfunky Posted September 9, 2004 Author Share Posted September 9, 2004 Originally posted by Bumpcity: Since no one has mentioned it: Prince - Musicology Damn. The title track to his new disc is just ridiculously funky.Definitely! I think my favorite cut off that album is "Illusion, Coma, Pimp & Circumstance." And who other than Prince could come up with that title? That reminds me, I saw Prince and The NPG on Leno awhile back, performing this killer jam called "The Work" (I think that's what it was called), but I haven't had any luck finding it in recorded form. Anyone know what album it's on, if any? If I remember correctly it goes "Willin' to do the work, Do what I gotta do, Willin' to do the work, How about you?" Sick. EDIT: Found it -- "The Work Pt. 1" off of "The Rainbow Children" which I've somehow never even heard of until now. Where the heck was I in 2001? Anyway, the clip I heard doesn't sound the same as I remember the live performance, but whateva. I think I'll pick this album up. It's got cool cover art, if nothing else. All your bass are belong to us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bottle12am Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Hey Dog-- The actual title for #1 (and a more Tasteful post, BTW) is 'Sexy MF' Not that this site is run by Puritans or anything, but a little decorum tis needed. That being said, welcome to the forum. Stick around, every one's pretty laid back around here. Just watch the explitives, and tell the curmudgeons around here 'But I did hit the search button' when asking a new question/ starting a new thread.
