A
soundtrack to a movie so appalling that it is infinitely wiser to let
the record stand on its own merits. While Prince cavorted in purple
kitchen foil and rode his Harley in high heels, the real star of the
film, the music, was doing all the talking. A knit of funk and rock, a
heavily stylized Hendrix guitar lick here and there, and a wilfully
danceable backbeat all made for a huge commercial smash, and the first
real international introduction for many people to a star-in-waiting.
'Darling Nikki' accidentally set the PMRC ball rolling, but the heady
lilt of the title track and the crushing 'When Doves Cry' can pardon him
that.
