Album Description
Available in:
Parade: Music from the Motion Picture Under the Cherry Moon is the eighth studio album by American recording artist Prince and The Revolution, released on March 31, 1986, by Paisley Park Records and Warner Bros. Records. It served as the soundtrack album to the 1986 film Under the Cherry Moon. Keith Harris of Blender writes that the album "makes a pop cavalcade out of the same psychedelic affectations that torpedoed This time it works."
It was the follow-up to Around the World in a Day and the soundtrack to Prince's second film. The album sees Prince further diversifying musically, adding orchestrations to his music and presenting a very European feel. Prince also displayed a new image with Parade: his trademark ruffled shirts, wild curly hair, and purple outfits which defined his look from 1981's Controversy to 1985's Around the World in a Day gave way to slicked-back hair and dress suits. Even though the single, "Kiss", was a number one hit, the album as a whole was not well received in the U.S. Europe, however, embraced the album, and for the first time in Prince's career, European album sales eclipsed those in the U.S. This was Prince's final album released with The Revolution.
User Album Review
Parade was Prince’s third and final album co-credited to The Revolution. It was seen as a considerable improvement to Prince’s previous album, Around The World In A Day, helped greatly by the inclusion of its lead single Kiss.
The accessibility of Parade ended fears that after Purple Rain his previous album had shown Prince had lost his magic touch. Parade restored Prince’s appeal. Around The World In A Day had sold well because it has been the follow up to Purple Rain and had left the buying public disappointed, the more mainstream Parade sold 1.8 million copies in the US (peaking at number 4 in Billboards charts) and 1.4 million elsewhere. It is certified Platinum by the RIAA. The album forms the sound track to Prince’s second movie Under The Cherry Moon, which was released three months after the album. The songs all follow the story of its lead character, Christopher Tracy, played by Prince in the film. An orchestra of 67 perform in the opening track. The lead track Kiss won the Grammy in 1986 for best R&B Vocal Performance, a song which Prince had originally intended to give to former bandmate Brown Mark for his solo album Mazarati. Prince has never been entirely happy with the album version of Kiss nor much of Parade as he later admitted he lacked inspiration and considered the whole project rushed.
