Prince - Computer Blue
Ever since picking up the anniversary/deluxe edition of Purple Rain of like a year and a half ago, and revisiting, remembering, learning about how amazing this track is.
I can say it is my favorite track now from Purple Rain, and it may be my favorite Prince song (from what I know.have heard which admittedly, isn't nearly as much as I should).
Why? I love the hook and the groove. The guitar solo almost sounds like a Satriani thing or something. It's Prince in some ways at his most technical or virtuosoic.
Or simply, it was 1 example of Prince doing prog, and yet it's on an album of pop hits oddly.
This tonight also was inspired by the 100th Episode of Black-ish homage to Prince.
But I still think this tune needs more love.
The media market is huge, thus the need for a media review market.
This is our little contribution to that field.
