The symbol album. I played it so much I had to replace it and decided to go ahead and spend some money on the CD. lol

Yes there was a time when there were no cd's my young friend. We had to buy it on tape or album, so I guess this question does not apply to you.

I just found Emancipation tonight at the 99 cent store around the corner. It was brand new still in the box. Now that's a deal. Sad sort of to see Mayte's pregnant belly on tape 3.

I never bought a Prince tape. I bought LPs and recorded tapes to play in my car.

I have For You through Batman on vinyl -- plus a boatload of 12" singles.

a used copy of the "Theives In The Temple" casette single, so I could transfer the B Side to MP3, since I've never seen it on CD anywhere. I could be wrong, but it was worth the small price.

I only had a few tapes -- the Dirty Mind/Controversy double-tape, 1999, and Sign O' The Times (all double albums that fit on one tape for continuous play). Everything else was vinyl up until Diamonds & Pearls.

I never transferred mine, I just went andd bought it in CD, which can be very expensive since his music has gone from records to tapes to CD.

For me it was LP. The last LP I bought for the new music (not to complete the vynil collection) was Graffity Bridge.

I bought a double tape Lovesexy/Parade back in 1991. At the time they were the only Prince albums I was missing, and it was dirt cheap. I actually bought a CD copy of Parade a few months back. I don't know if I'll do the same for Lovesexy. Maybe I'll just download it. wink

Ooh, the last Prince cassette that entered my collection I got at a concert, btw. It is an NPG sampler.

Batman, though I already had Sign and Parade on cd at that point (though I had no cd player!)

Interesting sidenote: at the time I bought it (in 1988), the Sign o' the Times cd cost me $50!!!

The only Prince tape I had was Purple Rain, and my brother bought that. I bought lp's; they sounded way better and I could just tape them myself.

The first album on cd I bought was Sign o the Times, and after that it was all cd's.

I did have a few cassingles, though, and I think the last I got was Pink Cashmere.

It was better to buy the purple rain lp because it had the poster inside
