The Gold Experience - The Gold Experience, released in 1995, was the first full-length Prince album to be credited to his unpronounceable symbol and was released at the most public, heated stage of his battle with the major label industrial complex. With the word "SLAVE" written on one cheek, Prince shined on the opulent ballads "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World" and "Gold" and the defiant single "[eye] Hate U," and the album earned widespread critical acclaim. Available as black vinyl double LP.
