Did Prince ever have a "best of" or "hits" collection available on VINYL???

I realize I have collected his LPs and 12"/7" singles almost out of necessity.

Was there ever a collection of his hits available on WAX, even in small availability, like for a promo?

Like, I have a promo CASSETTE from the Purple Rain era that has some earlier hits on it... would love to have something of the sort on vinyl.

I have only ever seen The Hits / B Sides on cassette or CD.

Did Ultimate Prince get a vinyl issue? Japan maybe?

The Hits 1 and The Hits 2 were issued on vinyl. Other than that, No, none of
the other best of collections were.

Thanks for coming through Boris. I swear I have never seen The Hits 1 and 2 on vinyl before.

Even on eBay it's all CD, DVD, LD (laser disc)

They're quite hard to come by these days. They were only released on vinyl in
Europe, and they were deleted only a few years later.

Oh, word. Well, at least I know they are out there now. Thank you.
