Hey they're both available for purchase on Amazon as well. Digital music. $7.92 each I think.

They're on Spotify as well. Dodgy cover on Madhouse, looks like they're someone trying to get something under the radar...

Shitty Mp3s? Pffft. Save that cashola for the PR deluxe physical copy.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

They're on iTunes as well. Hmmm. What is going on and why only these two albums?

Where's Madhouse 16? And why does the Screams of Passion feature an artist known as Screams of Passion? Mistake? And did the Family actually make all those other albums? This is weird.

V6 and A6 are on YouTube by the way.

Sound is much better on TIDAL HI FI compared to the original cd's and vinyl's...

I forgot how much I liked both of these albums. I pretty much like the whole of The Family, except for River Run Dry. I like 1 on Madhouse, a lot! Six, seven, and Eight, too!

What does that say about who owns the music?

Theorically the rights to 8 went back to Prince/NPG Records when WB shut down PP in 1993/94.

Alan Leeds said he wasn't sure whether this was the case with TF too, as it was an early PP album and may have remained WB property.

I'm still waiting on a physical re-release of The Family album. I always scour second hand music stores in the hope that I will come across that album.

This "All Music" copyright notice may suggest the albums have been uploaded by some mischieving entity. It's happened before on iTunes with someone uploading Carmen Electra there (it was quickly removed). 8 and TF should be either WB or NPG. Let's see for how long they last...

My Madhouse 8 vinyl is so good sound quality wise, that I can't really tell if the digital version is any better. Will have to double check. The Family on Tidal totally kills my vinyl version though. Sounds like a real release to me.

It definitely sounds different than on the Girl 6 soundrtack which is where this version could previously be found on Tidal.
