Prince and the ladies bounce off each other and cut loose to give us wildly fierce improvisational jams that rock hard.

Prince & 3rdEyeGirl give us a heavy funk rock album that features the kind of six-string workouts that’ll inevitably bring comparisons to the likes of Hendrix and Led Zeppelin.

Prince and the ladies bounce off each other and cut loose to give us wildly fierce improvisational jams that rock hard. Unlike Art Official Age this album is all about the tight throb of duelling guitars, bass and drums. The indulgent sultry pop rock stylings of Whitecaps and Stopthistrain will leave many wishing Prince had catered more for the metal heads and got stuck into some serious shredding.
