Had to come back and say thanks for bringing up this record. I hadn’t heard this before your post and have since played it numerous times each day. Just ordered it for about $12 from Fat Possum’s current sale.

As an aged millennial who graduated high school in the year 2000 the title track will forever be associated with NYE celebrations but also it’s Prince and Prince is always a party! Happy New Years everybody!
