A brilliant album indeed. I’ve always had such respect for her and the fearlessness that you so rightly mentioned. I absolutely adored The Lion and The Cobra and this follow up exceeded my lofty expectations. It’s an all-timer.

I loved this review Matt, one of the best pieces you’ve ever written IMO

Great review of a brilliant album, Matt. I listened many, many times when it was fist released. I already had ‘Lion’ and this was a progression from that debut. ‘Nothing Compares’ overshadows the other tracks but it remains a masterpiece of a record.

I was shocked at the treatment she received from Prince, detailed in her autobiography. I probably shouldn’t have been.
