CD Reviews

Watered-down 70s soul music, but not a Prince album

12/18/2002

(2 out of 5 stars)

"I wish sombody had explained this to me bofore I bought this album: 94 East is NOT the lost Prince album. 94 East was a Minneapolis band in the 70s. Prince, 16 years old at the time, played guitar with them. But Prince's current style of guitar-playing, recognizable to any Prince fan, is not heard on this album. Furthermore, Prince is not the lead singer (though he might do backing vocals?), nor is he even the main songwriter (he co-write one song on the entire "album"). You wouldn't know Prince played on this album at all (doesn't sound like a Prince album, and no liner notes to explain what his contribution was) except that there's a misleading picture of him on the cover.
Now, with that said, the album isn't bad if you're into lite 70s soul music, minus any hint of funk. This album IS listenable. But if you want lost Prince recordings, don't waste your money - you will be disappointed."
