Prince – Black Sweat

One out of left field for the classic this week. Prince is without doubt one the the best musicians and producers in the modern music era. With a massive body of work and the fact that he ruled the 80′s it’s hard to argue against his now legendary status.

Anyone who saw him live at the O2 in London will pay testament to his prowess as a live performer (even at the age of 50). His big hits are famous all over the world but I’ve chosen a lesser know track “Black Sweat” with its infectious groove and mad synth lines your sure to get your funk on.
