Prince & The Revolution

The Profile

American music group led by Prince, best known for the early‑1980s albums Purple Rain, Parade, and Around the World in a Day.

The Revolution served as Prince's band during his most commercially successful period in the early 1980s and appear on the Purple Rain soundtrack and on Parade, the soundtrack to Under The Cherry Moon.

The review argues that Parade is often remembered mainly for 'Kiss' but contains many overlooked gems. It praises the album's sparse, cinematic arrangements and Prince's compositional maturity. Highlights include 'Sometimes It Snows In April', 'Venus De Milo', and inventive funky-pop tracks.
