Yes yes YES!!!!! It is hours of listening pleasure, AND it is packaged with The Truth, which is freaking brilliant!

I liked this set more than Emancipation.

I'd say so.

I feel The Truth is absolutely brilliant, something of a hidden gem. Songs like Don't Play Me and Comeback make it really worth listening to.

The Crystal Ball set is really good as well.

So look into the mirror, do u recognise some1? Is it who u always hoped u would become, when u were young?

If you buy it spend the extra for the truth CD. Hard to find but you will not be able to find the Truth as a single CD

Nice list.

I'm not going to be a "completeist", as you guys call it, but I have 8 albums that I consider "must haves", especially with the way I set myself up.
I already own the ones in bold and the ones underlined are on my priority list.

Crystal Ball, if I ever do get it, isn't one of those "must haves"... but if I feel like I want more from prince's era, I might get it. I'm not concerned with it right now.

cloud9 The instant I heard Gold’s first note, it became Prince’s mark on my soul: a tattoo I wear with pride.
mushy Prince is Dreamy, gives my Life that Pop and 2 the industry, he’s Royalty. cool

YES!!! and as stated above, The Truth is wonderful, a must have imo.

As far as what you're missing, I'd first suggest Batman, The Black Album, and Ulimate (primarily for disc 2). If you want to keep going, then NPS, the ONA box set, and ONA piano/voice.

Ask where they're going, they'll tell U – "Nowhere"
They've taken a lifetime lease on Paisley Park ...music

YES - all good stuff (although "Cloreen Bacon Skin" isn't one I listen to often).
