Prince And The Revolution, Pop Life, Warner Brothers, 1985


Pop Life — Fresh Dance Mix  Why is this song so catchy? I must have listened to it 5 times in a row. The record itself is only two songs, but the strength of “Pop Life” makes it worth checking out. There are some cool breakdown sections that showcase the back up singers. The end section is sort of lame… where the EQ settings are being tweaked. But, overall the song is really cool and this “Fresh Dance Mix” does keep it fresh.  Hello — Fresh Dance Mix  Really is not fresh at all… has a goofy keyboard effect in the beginning, pitch wheel style sounds. Weeeee! The guitar tone is interesting.  It is so clean, almost too clean. The track is a forgetable style recording.  Nothing stands out or sticks in your head. Prince mumbles some jive at the end of the song. Overall, this track could have been erased. Save the Tape! Tape is expensive!  He should just dump all the layers and just release the drums as a download.
