yr definitely right about all of that. i know an older gentleman in this situation who says if only the doctor told him about the possibilities of addiction he never would have touched the stuff. i wish you luck there. you seem to be on the right track with that stuff. agreed. hopefully opioids for pain management will become a thing of the past sooner than later. |

Couple of articles from The Wire online that had escaped me. First:
Prince 1958–2016: Rebirth Of The Flesh The songs Prince made under a female alias are the pinnacle of his career, says Derek Walmsley Quote:

im not that big of a fan of Parade. it's ok.
Sign o the Times has "Starfish and Coffee" and "It" and "U got the Look" and "Forever in my Life" and "Strange Relationshit" and "I could never take the place of your man" and the rest of that killer album. I really love the era between Dirty Mind and Parade the most. Around the World is underrated. Prince goes Ray Davis and "She's always in my Hair" is my fav b-side. man, R.I.P. he deserves it more than David Blowie. |

He deserves to rest in peace more than David Bowie does? What a weird thing to think. Weirder still to say. I'll admit, Prince's music has been more important to my life than Bowie's... I'm pretty much a Station to Station and Low guy when it comes to Bowie. I don't fuck with much else... at least not on a regular basis. While Prince has about seven albums that I don't think I could live without, and SO many individual songs that mean so much to me ina personal level that I can't even begin to count them up.
So I'm more affected by Prince's death than I was by Bowie's. I prefer Prince's music on the whole to Bowie's. But I still think Bowie was a brilliant man who left an incredible legacy behind. But boy did they have it wrong when they said -- as so many did around the time of Bowie's death -- that he was the "last of the originals." People were thinking in very traditional, white, Beatles-derived rock icon terms when they said that. Prince is definitely a more original force than Bowie. And besides, there's still Dylan, Neil Young, Sir Paul, Mick and Keith, Iggy and all those other old ass fuckers. But yeah, Prince > Bowie, for sure, all things considered. Though ★/Blackstar is so so so much better than anything Prince dropped in his last 15 years on this planet. |

Sign is such a perfect album. It's on the level of Daydream Nation, Zen Arcade, and Disintigration in terms of '80s "definitive statement" or "[insert artist name]'s White Album" type records. Just monumental. And it's just as pivotal and influential to the underground as it was to the pop world. Probably more so. Which really does make it even better.
Michael Jackson did a lot of shit in the '80s, but he never accomplished anything anywhere near as vast and powerful and boundless as Sign "O." Or Purple Rain, for that matter. Or hell, even 1999 and Around the World in a Day. I grew up with MJ, but the difference between Prince and Mike is the difference between Artist with a capital "A" and "performer." Comparing them isn't really fair to either man's legacy, but I think it's worth mentioning that the two are virtually incomparable on an actual musical level. |

By the way...
did y'all know that one Chris Cornell (from Audioslave and those awful Chris Cornell solo albums, and the Earth 2 doppelgänger of the man who who actually made some kickass music for a few years with a pre-geriatric Soundgarden) recorded a cover of "Nothing Compares 2 U" as a tribute to our boy here? Well, he did. It's on iTunes. And — surprise! — It fucking sucks. Here's a review: Quote:

Nearly 700 men and women from all over the United States have rushed to claim they are Prince’s long-lost half sibling as the dash to get a share of his fortune that could top $1billion heats up.

well, seems that it's opiates/pills that might be the culprit. will it take Prince's death to finally get the nation wide coverage even when every 1 out of whatever reporter does these sick pills?
