Superdeluxe Box Of Prince’s “1999” Proves Nothing Succeeds Like Excess [part 9]
[…continued from last post] We are halfway into disc three and we’ve finally hit a track that was less than compelling. “Colleen” was an scanty instrumental vamp [the middle name of his engineer, Peggy McCreary, by the way…] that was … Continue reading
