The Time - Gigolos Get Lonely Too

Minneapolis' funk/R&B band The Time was in fact more or less Prince writing, producing, playing, recording everything and assembling a band to... well, pose. "Their" second album, 1982's What Time Is It? was indeed made like that, with Morris Day recording the vocals after everything else was in place. "Gigolos Get Lonely Too" was the album's only ballad, a beautiful slow funk about a player who yearns for real love. One of Prince's countless great songs that far too few people know.
