Rick James
Flag
Release Date: 1986
Label: Motown

Rick James had reached the end of the creative road by the time this was issued in the late '80s. Prince had taken the punk/funk hybrid and made it his own, while James' vocals and production lacked the spunk, rebellious air, and energy that had made him one of the early '80s' more charismatic figures. These are leaden, woefully performed numbers, with no inspiration or conviction. The production and arrangements were just as uninspired. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide
