im sometimes surprised when i see the enthusiasm for what i consider prince's less great albums on here

but i guess if you really love prince no matter what, its just about hearing prince, rather than looking at it in any kind of objective way

it is a bit like hearing a friend, or someone you know in some way, and just seeing what theyre doing regardless

but i have little patience for things like the plectrum electrum album or those npgmc compilations for instance

if i listened to more music every week, maybe i would investigate them more thoroughly than i have done, but i just think i have only so much time each week, so i would rather listen to someone else, or the prince songs i love, rather than the ones i thought were just o-k

what about you? if you listen to maybe 10 hours of music a week, is prince 90% of that?

Maybe if you weren't posting a new thread on here every 18 seconds, you'd have more time to listen to all kinds of music!

The vast majority. His musical ecosystem is so fucking expansive that you can listen to something for every occasion or mood any time you could ever want and that's to disclude the favs you go to every time.

Some periods in life, I've gone months with scattered listening. But the last couple years have been dominated by the vault releases.

Probably about 80-90%. My daily wake up alarm is Pearls B4 The Swine. I typically let it play all the way to the end, then I randomize. My morning starts with Prince and usually throughout the day as well. The rest of the music is typically various John Coltrane pieces, or some old-school R&B.

100%, unless you count music I hear while watching a movie or a tv show. Then it's maybe 95%

I average abouit one CD or it's equivalent a day of music, and about one Prince CD a week this past year. So, 14% to be precise.

60% Prince (official & bootlegs) 40% new (pretty much all hip hop)
