“It’s Gonna Be Lonely”
NAME THAT FAVORITE TRACK! On this day in 1979, Prince released his 2nd album, the self titled Prince.
The album produced five singles, I Wanna Be Your Lover, Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad?, Still Waiting, Sexy Dancer, and Bambi. Initially, I Wanna Be Your Lover and I Feel For You were written for Patrice Rushen who was working on her own album at the time. She declined the songs. Although years later, Chaka Khan would record I Feel For You to great chart success.
The album is Prince on all vocals and instruments although Prince did acknowledge that Andre Cymone provided background vocals on Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad. Additionally, Andre and Bobby Z were credited as "heaven sent helpers" in the credits leaving many to wonder if there were more uncredited contributions.
NAME that track! I'll go first. SO many great songs here, but something about When We're Dancing Close And Slow that is super haunting. Very cool chord structures. But this album is fire front to back.
I Wanna Be Your Lover (5:47)
Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad? (3:49)
Sexy Dancer (4:18)
When We’re Dancing Close And Slow (5:18)
With You (3:59)
Bambi (4:22)
Still Waiting (4:14)
I Feel For You (3:24)
It’s Gonna Be Lonely (5:26)

Two players hit 300 home runs during the 80s. You're looking at them. Only one is in the Hall of Fame. Both should be.

Here’s the video I was capturing in the back of that first pic as Bryce Young walked off the Bryant-Denny field for the final time in an Alabama uniform.

I am confused.
Greg Boyer just posted on Facebook that he recorded his horns for ‘Calabama’ a “Couple of months ago in my basement studio”. That’s a direct quote as shown below.
Can you shed light on what has happened here @LondellMcMillan or @CharlesFSpicer ?
Was this track modified after Prince’s recording of it? In which case it wouldn’t be as Prince intended it / recorded it.
Be super helpful if you can help clarify what has happened here.
Thanks in advance.

Got to go see my 1st Team All State CF play some travel ball today . Great job @MargTaylor2030 !
Remember it like it was yesterday !
June 17, 1994
The O.J. Simpson Chase
One of the most surreal, dramatic scenes in live broadcast television history
After being charged with double-murder that morning, Simpson — the former NFL great and NBC football analyst — and his former teammate Al Cowlings fled in Cowlings' white Ford Bronco. A 90-minute low-speed police pursuit ensued in Los Angeles.
In an unprecedented measure, NBC broke away multiple times from their live telecast of Game 5 of the 1994 NBA Finals between the Knicks and Rockets to cover the unfolding news developments with O.J.
NBC eventually utilized a split-screen to cover both events.
If you were alive and old enough to comprehend, you remember EXACTLY where you were.
Another accolade for @MargTaylor2030 today as she was named to The Tuscaloosa News All -Area 1st Team .This ,along with her 1st Team 1A All-State selection as an 8th grader . Also earned Team Offensive and Defensive MVP. One of the best 2030s not only in Alabama but nationally !
