Pride
Pride is a compilation from the American rock band Living Colour, released on 14 November 1995 through Epic. It gathers some of the group's most commercially successful songs, drawing on a run of studio work that began with Vivid in 1988 and continued through Time's Up in 1990 and Stain in 1993.
The real draw for fans is the four rare tracks recorded for the follow-up to Stain, which offer a glimpse of where the band's funk metal sound might have gone next. It is a useful snapshot of their first chapter, though it is out of print, and rights ownership problems make a reissue unlikely, so finding a copy takes some hunting.
