I posted last night but it didn't seem to have stuck.
Dirty Mind was one of the first albums I ever bought. I bought it on cassette so I could play it on this new device called a walkman, I was the first in my class to get one. I played it it until it was stretched and unlistenable.
I can't find my copy of The Black Album. I had a cassette from the original withdrawn version. I bought it from Belvy, the drummer for 7 Seconds, when he worked at a record store in the West Village.
As I recall, he was booed when he opened for the Rolling Stones on the Dirty Mind tour.
Even when I was listening to the harshest industrial and hardcore music, I always respected Prince. It was hard not to respect anyone who could hook up with the Vanity 6 and Sheila E.
