Did you get it online, or did you get it at the actual wrecka stow?

I think old friends has been quietly reissued on CD because I'm seeing a lot of brand new copies for sale

I don't think it's ever been not available since release. Most of his titles simply sold out after the rush of demand after he died and, apart from Black and Gold, all WB titles are in print and being restocked in stores.

I don't know in what world you are living, but in the real world COME and CHAOS AND DISORDER are out of print too. WB can't reprint them, for some reasons, and can't even sold them digitally.

The Black album and Come vinyl reissues are highly unlikely...Maybe it has been announced by some people at WB that doesn't know about the right issues.

COME is not out of print.

You can see them here in stores everywhere in USA.

Albums like CHAOS AND DISORDER, THE GOLD EXPERIENCE, EMANCIPATION, etc... are out of print and can only be found on second hand sites...

As feeluup points out, though, Come is not (or, at least, it is readily available online and in stores here in the US). The real downside for his "freedom" from WB, though, is that most of his one-off and independent releases are OOP, while nearly all (23 of 26?) of the WB albums are in print and readily available. As for the vinyl issue of Lotus, I picked up my copy last week, in store, at a local Bullmoose Music location (the store I linked to earlier, that had the release info for the 12" single reissues). Their web site lists the 9/23 release date (a recent change) but the copies are out and available for purchase in store. [Edited 7/29/16 18:45pm]

Come is not printed anymore. My guess is that there are still old shipments in the usa. . Come has never entered the charts anywhere in the world since his death because you can t find them. In france you can find in some stores imports from japan for a high price: 20 euros! . Ironically there are mentions of his supposed birthday and death on the front cover...it coulçd have sold well at the time of his death [Edited 7/30/16 19:09pm]

WRONG! COME CHARTED ON THE BILLBOARD 200 AND iTUNES CHART for a few weeks after his death.

COME ALSO IS PRINTED BECAUSE I'VE ALWAYS SEEN IT IT IN STORES NEW STOCKED IN USA.

Come CD was reprinted under another label not the WB label. I think I have one somewhere. Thet paid for the rights to do so.

I can assure you that Come has never entered any chart in the world since his death. In the usa COME wasn t part of the 19 albums that charted on the billboard 200. It didn t enter neither in any other minor chart in the usa. . I never saw it on i tunes 200 but it is quite possible because you can purchase it digitally. Even THE VAULT charted on some countries in the official charts ; but not COME. If it was still in print record stores wouldn t need to import some old stock from japan and sell it for 3 times the price of an usual prince album [Edited 7/31/16 2:12am]

u dont live in USA ROD...

when i say i saw it at many cd stores and big chains like BARNES N NOBLE... how can you argue, if you don't live in the USA like i do...
