Advantages: Kiss

Disadvantages: It's quite bland

Released in 1986, PARADE is not Prince's worst album, but by no means is it his best. It features music from his film UNDER THE CHERRY MOON, which I've never seen. Presumably 'Christopher Tracy', whose name appears in a couple of tracks on the album, is a character in the movie?

Anyway, the songs themselves are pretty average. There are two stand-out tracks. The first one is KISS which is OK here, but which Tom Jones does much better on his cover version. The second stand-out is ANOTHERLOVERHOLENYOHEAD. This is the one track on the album that I sing along to, sometimes without the album even playing! The lyric "you need another lover like you need a hole in your head, baby" is that of pure genius in my opinion!

Prince has released many many albums over the years, under various different names. If you've never bought one of his albums before, I wouldn't recommend starting with this one. It's a bit bland on the whole, I'm afraid.
