''Love Symbol'' is the fourteenth studio album by American recording artist Prince, and the second of the two that featured his backing band the New Power Generation.

Records (which had refused to steadily release his back catalog of unreleased music, and which he claimed trademarked his given name for promotional purposes). The release has been referred to under titles such as ''Love Symbol'', ''Symbol Album'', or ''Symbol''. Its first two singles, "Sexy MF" and "My Name Is Prince", achieved modest success ...
