| I wished I would have been told I would not have the cover to my cd. Also the cd wasn't in that great of condition. |

| On the upside, it sounds a little different from "1999" and "Purple Rain"--most of the time. The downside is that it sounds like a fatally-flawed remake of Prince's earlier efforts. Where once he was wild, unpredictable, a visionary, here he sounds like a kid at the end of his rope who can still make some darn good tunes, since most of the songs on the record were better than anything else that was being released at the time, but who doesn't really know much about anything, except for his lover's tambourine (maybe). I mean, it sounds nice, but even the sound can't transcend hollow psychedelia. "Pop Life" has a nice groove, but it sounds more original than it is. The same could be said for the album. |

My Favorite Prince Album Submitted on: 2008-09-18 |

Thanks to the collaboration with Wendy & Lisa, this album tops my list of Prince releases. It's breezy, funky, and yet deep. Prince's religious bent doesn't interrupt the proceedings as much as in his later albums, but still shows up where appropriate. Wendy Melvoin and Lisa Coleman had a strong influence on the music in this album, and it shows.
Again, this is a Prince album that needs to be played from beginning to end without shuffling. It tells a story, builds a narrative, and takes the listener on a musical journey that must be experienced to be understood.
Vastly superior to anything he did in the 90s, Around The World In A Day marks the near-end of Prince as a fun artist, and the beginning of his delving deeper into religious themes. In this album, that helps him. In later albums, the piousness bogs him down.
Along with "Parade", this album also marks the best work he did with the Revolution, his best band to date. |

| Around The World in A Day & Lovesexy, that's if you like real music played by real musicians. All the other good things that I could say have already been said. Peace & Love |
