Prince – One Nite Alone... (Solo Piano And Voice By Prince) (Limited Edition Purple Vinyl)
A companion album to One Nite Alone, the first official live album by Prince, One Nite Alone…(Solo Piano and Voice by Prince) features Prince by himself, but the half-hour collection feels scattered and unfocused, as if Prince was writing the songs as he was singing them. Comparing this to the archival release Piano & A Microphone 1983 -- which contains a similar format, plus another cover of Joni Mitchell's "A Case of You" -- is instructive, as the earlier recording feels intimate and relaxed; this just feels disparate, as if Prince was working through his ideas and demons in hopes of getting somewhere better. – Stephen Thomas Erlewine
