Prince released "3121" in 2006, a song he wrote words and all, and he's the only singer the credits name. He plays on it too, though the credits don't spell out what, and around him stands a band with real brass in its lungs: Maceo Parker and Candy Dulfer on saxophones, Greg Boyer on trombone and Ray Monteiro on trumpet, over Sonny Thompson's electric bass and Michael Bland's drums.
Four horn players on a single track is a statement in itself, and it wraps a lot of air and brass around the man at the center.
