Just started reading Adele Bertei's book on Sinéad O'Connor's Universal Mother album for the 33 1/3 series, this is how it starts:

"High-voltage tip-off for my dear muso brothers who prefer to sink their teeth into the man-mayo of the usual rock criticism; this book is Ganza [neologism for a feminist 'gonzo' style of journalism]. It's a book misogynists may write off as feminist doggerel. Sinéad O'Connor's lyrics were sometimes described so. Like her, I will say things people think yet are petrified of voicing out loud for fear of persecution in a censorial moment that feels too much like the American Inquisition. I'm writing in Sinéad's honor and in honor of the women without voices, those gone and remaining... This fire-breathing dragon who loved us with a warrior's passion lived a public feminism germane to Universal Mother, a feminism especially relevant to the sorry state of our present world. That is, ...this book is feminist as fuck."

Fuck yeah.

I read and I recommend #Greenlights by Matthew McConaughey, about his life.

Sinead O’Connor: The Lion and the Cobra (Chrysalis BFV41612, 1987)

Thought this was priced at $3.99 but it was $9.99 but it’s worth it. “Mandinka” is the best but there’s lots of other stuff to love on here. Her voice is just incredible, especially considering she was a pregnant teenager when she recorded it. Badass.

Peter Gabriel - Come Talk to Me (Secret World Live) 📞 🎤 🏟️ 🎭️

Saw this tour in Plaza de las Ventas back in 1993. I forgot about the great Paula Cole singing the Sinead O'Connor part. Is there a greater stage innovator than Peter Gabriel? Is there anyone else who mixes concert and theater so well?

And what an amazing touring band: Manu Katché, Tony Levin, all greats in their own right.

Tried out my new "to me" mic this morning for a bit of Nothing Compares 2 U ... based on the #ChrisCornell version which was probably based on the #SineadOConnor version which was based on the ... #singing #music #song #tunes #mastodaoine ... no instrumental backing for a change just the raw vocals

Pure Gänsehaut !

#Lieblingsmusik 🌱 😀 👯 🎵 🎶

#UniversalMother is the fourth studio album by Irish singer #SinéadOConnor, released on 12 September 1994.

"That album was the first attempt to try to expose what was really underneath a lot of the anger of the other records," she explained, adding, "George Michael told me he loved that record, but could only listen to it once because it was so painful. He had to hide it."[18]

There was no famine
See Irish people were only allowed to eat potatoes
All of the other food
Meat, fish, vegetables
Were shipped out of the country under armed guard
To England while the Irish people starved
And then, in the middle of all this
They gave us money not to teach our children Irish

Dearly beloved
We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called life

This is the final set of our Prince-themed 6 Degrees series, timed to end today, the 8th anniversary of The Purple One leaving us. And while we’ve used up all of our Prince albums from The List, each artist/album in this set has some connection to him.

Okay, carrying on from where we left off last time…

6 Degrees of Separation: Selena to No Doubt

Selena – Dreaming Of You (list number 316)
>> While Madhouse (which ended Part 7) is mostly Prince, one of the musicians who collaborated on the side project was Eric Leeds. Prince and Eric Leeds worked together on another side project, the 1995 solo album of Mayte, Child of the Sun, which was mostly written by Prince and was released on his NPG Records label. Mayte was part of the NPG, was a dancer for his tours and videos, and was Prince’s partner at the time of recording this album (and then wife). Though not included on this (or any later) album, Mayte recorded some songs (potentially during the same time) with the hip hop group Full Force, who also appear on one track of this album by the late great Selena. Another guest appearance on the same album is David Byrne, and their track together was produced by sound engineer Susan Rogers, who worked on many Prince and Prince-adjacent albums starting with Purple Rain, including Madhouse and…

Candy Dulfer – Saxuality (740)
…this 1990 album by Candy Dulfer, who collaborated a few times with Prince from the 80s on (including joining his band for the Musicology Live 2004ever tour). Rogers also mixed the contributions of Paul Westerberg (of The Replacements, another Minneapolis act that made waves in the 80s, as mentioned in Part 4) to the soundtrack for the film Singles, which also featured a number of artists/bands from the Seattle area who admired and/or inspired Prince, such as…

The Jimi Hendrix Experience – Electric Ladyland (839)
…Jimi Hendrix (who was a great influence on Prince; check out this [audio-only] cover of Hendrix’s “Red House”),….

Soundgarden – Superunknown (849)
…Soundgarden (check out Chris Cornell’s beautiful cover of Prince’s “Nothing Compares to U”*), and…

Pearl Jam – Ten (273)
…Pearl Jam. Not only have Pearl Jam been covering Prince’s “Purple Rain” somewhat regularly since The Purple One left us (e.g., at the Quebec City show in 2022), but Prince (along with his band 3rdEyeGirl) also did an instrumental cover of a track off this album, “Even Flow” (audio-only here)! (I don’t know about you, but imagining Prince listening to Ten puts a smile on my face.)
Another huge Seattle band that is automatically linked with the city’s scene at the time but oddly did not appear on the Singles soundtrack is, of course, Nirvana. However, one of the band’s (touring) members, Pat Smear, was also linked with Prince, as he appeared in the music video for “Raspberry Beret”. Smear also appeared in…

No Doubt – Tragic Kingdom (804)
the music video for “Don’t Speak”, off of this album by No Doubt. Prince would later collaborate with No Doubt and Gwen Stefani a couple times: Stefani appears on “So Far, So Pleased” from Prince’s 1999 album Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic, which they would perform together later on Prince’s Welcome 2 American tour (here); and Prince co-wrote and -produced the song “Waiting Room” that eventually appeared on No Doubt’s 2001 album Rock Steady. <<

*I just had to mention one more link I found when looking up the No Doubt connection (which we could say is connected to “Nothing Compares to U”…). Prince seems to have had an impact on others in the world of ska/reggae beyond No Doubt, as there’s an entire reggae covers version of Purple Rain, entitled Purple Reggae. Put out in 2014 by a duo in the UK called Radio Riddler, the tribute album features a number of guest artists including the late great Sinéad O’Connor (who was no stranger to reggae covers), covering Prince’s “I Would Die 4 U” (or, on the dub version of the album, “I Would Dub 4 U”).

Thank you all for joining me on this whirlwind tour of just a handful of albums from The List! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did, especially the little Prince tidbits. There are, of course, so many other connections that could be made, and I’d love to keep the 6 Degrees game going, perhaps as a semi-regular series. Let me know if you’d like to contribute a set, either continuing from where we’ve left off here or a standalone set you’ve discovered!

Are we gonna let de-elevator bring us down?
Oh, no let’s go!
