It was released on this day... It was a statement, defiantly voicing out the mind of Prince Rogers Nelson at the tender age of 22 years-old. Wild. • • • Dirty Mind is the third album by American recording artist Prince. It was released on October 8, 1980, by Warner Bros. Records as the follow-up to his self-titled second album, Prince, (1979). Produced, arranged, and composed mainly by Prince in his home studio in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the album debuted at number 63 on the US Billboard 200 chart (peaking at number 45), and earned widespread acclaim from music critics. According to Ken Tucker from Rolling Stone, "Prince's first two collections established him as a doe-eyed romantic. Nothing could have prepared us for the liberating lewdness of Dirty Mind. Dirty Mind jolts with the unsettling tension that arises from rubbing complex erotic wordplay against clean, simple melodies. Across this ELECTRIC surface glides Prince's graceful quaver, tossing off lyrics with an exhilarating breathlessness. He takes the sweet romanticism of Smokey Robinson and combines it with the powerful vulgate poetry of Richard Pryor. The result is cool music dealing with hot emotions. At its best, Dirty Mind is positively filthy." #Prince #DirtyMind #PrinceDirtyMind #80sMusic #80s #Funk #PaisleyPark #Head #Sister #WhenYouWereMine #WarnerBros #WarnerBrosRecords #PartyUp #TheTime #DoItAllNight #UpTown #MyriadMuzik https://www.instagram.com/p/BortSXMgx5_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=r474llpu40ka
