Every Friday in March our Purple Hour (12pm and 7pm CST) will be turning into a Purple Current Time Machine. We will be taking a look at Prince's musical output for a specific year, (even if it was released significantly later) and you will be voting on the top tracks for that year. This means that Prince's output as a ghostwriter, producer, and collaborator are all fair game.

Thirty years ago, Prince was in a particularly prolific period, and he was also branching out across different projects and groups. Paisley Park Records was in full effect, so some of Prince's efforts were going towards Mavis Staples' release. You voted, now here's the best of 1989.

 1. Prince - Electric Chair

 2. Prince - Scandalous

 3. Prince - The Future

 4. Prince - Batdance

 5. Prince - I Love U In Me (B-side to Arms of Orion)

 6. Prince - Partyman

 7. Prince - Vicki Waiting

 8. Prince - Lemon Crush

 9. Prince - 200 Balloons (B-side to Batdance)

10. Prince - The Arms of Orion

11. Mavis Staples - Time Waits for No One

12. Prince - Trust

13. Mavis Staples - Come Home

14. Prince - Sex (B-side to Scandalous)

15. Mavis Staples - I Guess I'm Crazy...
