Drive Me Wild (Extended Version) - Vanity 6

[@ROCKNROLLFAN]

I remember spending hours just rewinding the cassette tape in the car just to digest the guitar solo and the entire arrangement itself back in the summer of 1990.....

[@HOoDtRiotiCTV]

This is basically the instrumental and the song all in one. Prince killed this beat. Ahead of it's time.

[@leedogthedestroyer]

This is so tight....Prince is jamming his ass off!!

[@misterwebb8564]

I’ve always said . The time . Vanity 6 . The family. Was his way of getting his funk nut off. And kept the pop stuff for him. I truly think he should’ve kept some of that funk for myself!

[@leedogthedestroyer]

@@misterwebb8564 I agree. I think he gave away too many gems. But I understand he was experimenting and didn't want to mess up his brand.

[@ROCKNROLLFAN]

I used to LOVE the ending back in the day (1990)........

[@Ms_Charlotte_S]

@ROCKNROLLFAN.. You keep specifically mentioning "1990". Is that actually the year that you discovered this 1982 classic? LOL Or did you wait till the year 1990 to develope love for this hit which was rare even back THEN?

[@lastdays3148]

I remember this song being played on the Radio when I was a Teenager Lady in 1982. And watching the Video of the song on Video Soul the Station was BET. I also loved the ending that Electric Guitar. That was Prince playing that instrument in the background.

[@ROCKNROLLFAN]

@@Ms_Charlotte_S 1990 was the year that I discovered this 12" maxi single version in my uncle's massive PRINCE collection.

Susan said on Apollonia's podcast that she did this song in one take . She thought Prince was going to do more but he told her she's done and that it sounded good . She said she was like " What are you serious" !!!!

[@zroy9263]

This is infectious and nasty funk! There were very few cats on the guitar that could lock a guitar riff tight and in the pocket like my dude PRINCE! The guitar solos are fucking far out as well! Oh, Lord! This music is totally eclectic and unique! It's ahead of its time. The fusion of funk, new wave, rock, and psychedelia is stupendous! This extended version of DRIVE ME WILD with Susan on vocals is a perfect example of how interesting music was in the 1980s! This is Minneapolis naked funk, featuring VANITY 6, meets, P-FUNK, with a little DEVO in the mix, and ends up with JIMI HENDRIX, and that's NO JOKE! My dude PRINCE was the muthafuckin' man!
