Prince - Sign "O" The Times
---------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------------
AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Fearless, eclectic, and defiantly messy, Prince's Sign 'O' the Times falls into
the tradition of tremendous, chaotic double albums like The Beatles, Exile on
Main St., and London Calling -- albums that are fantastic because of their
overreach, their great sprawl. Prince shows nearly all of his cards here, from
bare-bones electro-funk and smooth soul to pseudo-psychedelic pop and
crunching hard rock, touching on gospel, blues, and folk along the way. This
was the first album Prince recorded without the Revolution since 1982's 1999
(the band does appear on the in-concert rave-up, "It's Gonna Be a Beautiful
Night"), and he sounds liberated, diving into territory merely suggested on
Around the World in a Day and Parade. While the music overflows with
generous spirit, these are among the most cryptic, insular songs he's ever
written. Many songs are left over from the aborted triple album Crystal Ball
and the abandoned Camille project, a Prince alter ego personified by scarily
sped-up tapes on "If I Was Your Girlfriend," the most disarming and bleak
psycho-sexual song Prince ever wrote, as well as the equally chilling "Strange
Relationship." These fraying relationships echo in the social chaos Prince
writes about throughout the album. Apocalyptic imagery of drugs, bombs,
empty sex, abandoned babies and mothers, and AIDS pop up again and
again, yet he balances the despair with hope, whether it's God, love, or just
having a good time. In its own roundabout way, Sign 'O' the Times is the
sound of the late '80s -- it's the sound of the good times collapsing and how all
that doubt and fear can be ignored if you just dance those problems away.
