COMPLETE silence, no reviews in danish papers - and we are used to get a lot of those with every release, but now Prince is completely ignorred by the press:

since Lotusflow3r was released in USA only: No media in Denmark has been writing about Prince and his new music, (at least not to my knowledge),

a major music site gaffa.dk has even sent me a request - if I knew where to get the Lotusflow3r 3-CD (since Target would not send them a copy, outside USA), I wrote them back they could try eBay even though that's a bit alternative for a review site,

So.... this is what SILENCE looks like?

It's sad when the media ignorres this former superstar, isn't it?

Does anyone know: are there any plans for a major company to distribute LF in Europe / outside USA....???

I personally don't know how Prince runs his distributions, although it could make sense to wait 4 profit from the first group of sales, to copy a second batch 4 distribution.

I would just keep holding on, when the cd gets to U...all will be well.

Same in Germany.

I only heard about England, France and Japan getting the albums so far.

I got a date yesterday for Holland: Wednesday april 15th the three-disc-set will hit a major retailer. It's an import, so I guess it's the target version for 19,99 euro. Outside of this little info, I haven't seen any reviews here as well.

No, 24,99 that is...

There was a rather nice, long review in the second biggest influential daily in Poland "Dziennik" - you can check it out online here: http://www.dziennik.pl/ku...mocji.html

Oh, they did two reviews, here is the second one: http://www.dziennik.pl/ku...album.html

No distribution in Poland, though.

Which major retailer?

I live in Denmark too, and ordered a copy of the set from www.iMusic.dk.

I ordered some two weeks ago and haven't recieved my copy yet - still waiting though...

the price is 189 danish kroner including the shipping, which in US$ would be about US$33. In danish prices its not expensive for 3 cd's, but much more expensive than the target price of US$12 off course....


Im thrilled....

Just browsed randomly on the Danish Google + a few other European Google sites and found these :

But there are Danish sites who reported about Lotusflow3r, so i personally would'nt say it's a complete silence.

^ Okay - maybe not complete silence - since some sites had news reports about Lotus Flow3r, long time ago....

but no newspapers has made any reviews,

ps. like I wrote in post #1: Gaffa.dk - the biggest danish music site are about to write a review, until now they have only made news reports...
