Description:
One of the greatest double albums of the vinyl era, Sign 'O' the Times shows Prince at his peak. Here, Michaelangelo Matos tells the story of how it emerged from an extraordinary period of creativity to become one of the landmark recordings of the 1980s. He also illustrates beautifully how - if a record is great enough and lucky enough to hit you at the right time - it can change your way of looking at the world.


Excerpt


The most immediately striking thing about Sign 'O' the Times is the jazzy sensibility running through it. Prince's father was a jazz musician, his mother a vocalist; he'd been a fan of chops-heavy jazz-fusion as well as rock and R&B growing up. But when Prince began recording for Warner Bros., he abjured the brass sections that dominated groups like Earth, Wind & Fire and Parliament-Funkadelic, opting instead for stacked synthesizer patterns and a spare, cold feel that markedly contrasted with lush, overarranged disco and the wild, thick underbrush of the era's giant funk ensembles; Rickey Vincent, author of Funk- The Music, the People, and the Rhythm of the One, dubbed it naked funk. Getting away from traditional R&B instrumentation is an underappreciated aspect of Prince's crossover success; Prince is also said to have actively disliked the sound of horns early in his career.

Great shoe: 5th pair purchased!
I love these shoes! They fit true to size and never wear out. Both of my girls have worn these exclusively from 9 months through kindergarten. My oldest just learned to tie laces and that’s the only reason I’m moving her on to different shoes. These are stylish and they grow out of them before the tread even begins to show wear. Additionally, unlike cheap sneakers from Walmart or Target the Velcro holds strong despite a year of use by two different children.

Great purchase!
My child is 14 months and has been on the move for a long time, these shoes are so great, he moves great in them and never has a problem wearing them! They are slightly narrow so the strap doesn’t go all the way, but has never come undone!

My son’s favorite shoes! High quality, very durable, look nice even when they aren’t freshly cleaned. Easy to take on and off. Definitely worth the money! This color tends to go with everything. Such great support.
