'Brother, Can You Paradigm?'

I have a CD recording of a Radio 2 programme called 'The Funk Factory' which has this dreadfully-titled track on it, a cool collaboration between Prince and George Clinton. It's announced on the show as an exclusive... it's repetitive in a kind of lame way, but also at the same time completely brilliant and lyrically inspired. Can't get any kind of results on Google for it, which suggests it may be kind of a rarity... can any ILMers shed some light on whether it has been/will be released?

Too obscure?

I'm too lazy to click noodle's link. Is it that one from Graffiti Bridge?

I wasn't expecting both reviews to be so oddly positive - even *I* didn't buy this album based on the two terrible live shows I saw featuring this material... (and I am a big booster of "Dope Dogs", TAPOAFOM not so much, tho I own that too....)

What's odd about giving a positive review to the best album of the year?

uh, up to now I hadn't been given any indications that it was any good!

honestly watching George muddle through Whole Lotta Shakin Goin On while his roadies took over the stage on that last tour was really pretty sad. And I hate that violinist in his touring band, and the skinny white girl who butchered "I'm Never Gonna Tell It", etc. None of the new stuff seemed to work live.
