O{+> The Gold Experience
(NPG/Warner)

Among the least of Prince's many talents is self-editing. So along with the sizzling Sly Stone-inspired party workouts central to The Gold Experience there is the inevitable cheese quotient. In this case, that amounts to a corny, overiding virtual reality concept, a litany of sexist put-downs, with a few posterous "all that glitters ain't gold" cliches thrown in among the soppy ballads for good measure. There's more fun and less fat on the New Power Generation's Exodus album, which his little purpleness recently issued on his own NPG label. Write NPG, 110 North 5th Street, 7th Floor, Minneapolis, MN 55403, USA.

RATING : N-N-N (out of 5 N's)
