SATURDAY SURPRISE PRINCE TRIBUTE! - THE HORROR OF AN ALBUM CALLED "N.E.W.S."

PRINCE'S FORAY INTO JAZZ FUSION - The least selling album in the entire Prince catalog is one of those creations I just love turning people on to over the years. Entirely instrumental and improvised, four tracks of exactly 14:00 each called North, East, West, South. Each piece is slightly different in genre, one is more funk than jazz and the whole album of course is....The Horror!!
"Needless to say, this aimless studio jam is not what fans are used to hearing from him, even given his eclectic and exploratory nature, and this is not the kind of album he might have been expected to deliver if he were still working for an established record company instead of putting out his own discs. But that may be the point." - All Music
The Horror!!
