Album Description
Available in:
"Graffiti Bridge" ist das zwölfte Studioalbum von Prince. Es erschien am 20. August 1990 bei dem Label Warner Bros. Records / Paisley Park Records und dient als Soundtrack zum gleichnamigen Film, der zweieinhalb Monate später in die Kinos kam. Das Album enthält 17 Songs, darunter die sechs Singles "Thieves In The Temple", "Melody Cool", "Round And Round", "New Power Generation", "Can't Stop This Feeling I Got" und "Shake!". Die Laufzeit des Albums beträgt 68 Minuten und 34 Sekunden. Das Albumcover gestaltete der Fotograf und Art Director Steve Parke.
Die Albumaufnahmen fanden zwischen Herbst 1989 und Februar 1990 in Los Angeles, New York, Detroit, und den Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen statt. Allerdings schrieb Prince nur vier neue Songs für das Album. Die restlichen Songs hatte er in den Jahren zuvor aufgenommen und für das Album überarbeitet.
"Graffiti Bridge" ist das erste Prince-Album, bei dem Prince bei einigen Songs nicht den Hauptgesang übernimmt. Fünf der 17 Songs singen Mavis Staples, Tevin Campbell und The Time.
Das Album erreichte in den amerikanischen Billboard Charts Platz sechs und wurde in den USA knapp 1,3 Million Mal verkauft, wodurch es Gold-Status erlangte. In Deutschland wurde das Album 180.000 Mal verkauft und erreichte Platz vier der deutschen Album-Charts.
User Album Review
The concept for Graffiti Bridge began many years prior, when Prince planned to write a Broadway musical in which would feature both himself and Madonna in the lead roles. This project evolved into a movie sequel to 1984’s Purple Rain
All songs on the Graffiti Bridge album, which is the soundtrack to accompany the Graffiti Bridge movie were reworked versions of songs of much older and unreleased songs previously written by Prince throughout the 1980s. The oldest track on the album is Tick, Tick, Bang which he wrote in 1981 for the Vanity 6 project. The 1989 configuration of the album was named Rave Unto The Joy Fantastic and contained songs written around the Lovesexy period and also the creative influences to the succeeding album Batman. Graffiti Bridge fared better in the UK than in the US, holding the number 1 position in the charts for some five weeks. It is certified Gold by the RIAA. Graffiti Bridge was not officially supported by the Nude Tour, which was essentially a greatest hits tour, had in fact almost concluded by the time of the release of the album and only supported it during the final shows of the tour.
