Sheila E: Sheila E (Paisley Park Records)
Frank Owen, Melody Maker, 28 February 1987
WHAT A strange place Paisley Park must be! It's as if the accoutrements of Sixties head culture synthesized with Seventies body culture to produce an ultra-glowing commune-cum-nightclub with the Psychedelic Slut as guru and greatest dancer. A place where funk rhymes with duck and all the fine ladies wear lacy lingerie. But a place with a philosophy too which could be summed up as global peace through bonking.
