Prince - The Very Best of Prince
---------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------
AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Even geniuses (maybe especially geniuses) are taken for granted, not seen as
geniuses, or only appreciated in small doses. Which is a grandiose way of
saying that, no matter how partisans may complain, there are many listeners
out there that don't want to delve into the deliriously rich catalog of Prince
and would rather spend time with a single disc of all the hits -- especially since
the first singles compilation was botched, spread too thin over two discs and
sequenced as if it were on shuffle play. That doesn't mean that 2001's The
Very Best of Prince is perfect, even if it is a better hits overview than its
predecessor. First of all, Prince had so many hits, and so many of them were
so good, that 17 tracks couldn't possibly summarize everything great. After
all, this doesn't have Top Ten hits like "Delirious," "Pop Life," "I Could Never
Take the Place of Your Man," or "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World" (or the
number one "Batdance," for that matter, continuing Batman being unofficially
written out of his discography), nor does it have such great second-tier hits
as "Take Me With U" and "Mountains," or B-sides like "Irresistible Bitch" and
"Erotic City," let alone album tracks. What is here are the big songs -- "1999,"
"Little Red Corvette," "When Doves Cry," "Kiss," and so on -- all presented in
their single edits. And, frankly, that's enough to make this a dynamite
collection, perfect for those that just want one Prince disc, and a good, solid
listen of some of his best. Besides, this trumps both Hits discs by including
"Money Don't Matter 2 Night," his best single never to reach the Top 10.
