They didn't ask him to censor the albums, just label them. Sounds like a good middle way approach to me. I do think it is to his credit. They didn’t ask him to censor the albums, just label them.

I think the funniest story re: Prince is told by Charlie Murphy (Eddie Murphy's brother) on The Chappelle Show. It involved a game of basketball and pancakes.. Also..picky point...writing a song that was later covered by Sinead isn't technically writing it FOR her, since he sang the song first. He’s a sexy little man!

Sounds more like a business decision than anything else. But - this list did remind me of how many great songs he has written for other people. The man's a (tiny) genius.

It's neither his best nor worst album, and to call the whole thing terrible does a great disservice to his eccentric drama 'Bob George'.
