Absolutely not, it's a boot through and through.

I agree though, it's very good. I really dig "Eye Am The DJ", that should have made it onto the proper album for sure. The alternate version of "Emancipation" is nice too.

an alternate version of Emancipation??? I didn't hear that ??? eek It's mind blowing the amount of music Prince has created!

I like Slave 2 the System, 2020, Feel Good, and Eye Am The DJ!

"Good bye" is beautiful

That´s the only song I really dislike on that compilation. lol
I really can´t stand that song.I hate it.With a passion. lol

But the other ones are really good, especially 2020, Journey 2 the Center of Your Heart and of course Goodbye. Too bad those were left out on the official release.

No one should be excited to hear the "alternate" version of Emancipation. It's not an "alternate" but rather an earlier version - - the song sounds pretty much the exact same but w/ out the bass-line & extra production. To me it's alot more boring than the original. nothing different in the way the "witness 4 the prosecution" alternate was a totally different arrangement than the more widely circulated version.

I used to like "Feelgood" on there - but it, too, got kinda boring w/ the same formula of 2 segments of rap, followed by some cheesy instrument, then another rap bridge. journey 2 the center of u're heart and eye am the dj though are just infectious - can't get these songs out of my head!! slave 2 the system is awesome I think, although i see why people don't like it

2020 is one of those i like SO much I just WISH it was longer cause i don't want it to end, but that's probably what makes it such an awesome song
