Four songs contain higher-pitched vocals to represent Prince's alter ego "Camille". Minimal instrumentation is heard on the stripped-down " Sign o’ the Times", the lead single. Many of the drum sounds on Sign o' the Times came from the Linn LM-1 drum machine, and Prince used the Fairlight CMI synthesizer to replace other instruments. Prince eventually compromised with label executives and shortened the length of the release to a double album. The album's songs were largely recorded during 1986 to 1987 in sessions for releases Prince ultimately aborted: Dream Factory, the pseudonymous Camille, and finally the triple album Crystal Ball. The album is the follow-up to Parade and is Prince's first solo album following his disbanding of the Revolution. It was first released on Maas a double album by Paisley Park Records and Warner Bros. Sign o' the Times (often stylized as Sign "☮︎" the Times) is the ninth studio album by American singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Prince.
