About the author

Reverend

I’m a Graphic Designer based in the UK. Became a casual fan in the late 80s on the back of the Batman album — an underappreciated classic in my opinion (though admittedly not one many Prince fans share) — before graduating to a more full-time fan role in the early 90s. First saw him live on the Ultimate Live Experience tour of 1995. My favourite album is Sign O’ The Times (an uncontroversial choice), and if I had to pick a single favourite song it would be “If I Was Your Girlfriend”, which I think encompasses a lot of what made Prince a genius of his craft.

Funknroll and the Mixing of Musical Genres 3
Prince "Funknroll"
The two different mixes of “Funknroll” end up reflecting the two polarities of Prince’s career

“Funknroll” is also an unusual inclusion on Art Official Age because a different, more rock-oriented version of the same song was included on the album Plectrum Electrum released the same year as Art Official Age. This in itself could provide thematic insight into the inclusion of “Funknroll” on both albums.
