For those who were members of NPG Music CLub since year 1 I suggest download Chocolate Invasion. My reason is simply this U make MY Sunshine and Sexme/sex me not are extended versions. Judas Kiss, High, and Vavoom has been reworked. The Dance, well it's not my flavor but hey, technically it's a new song.

Sex me/sex me not is now clubbier

U make my sunshine is now 7:04

Vavoom - no longer sounds like something Prince and Wendy did though it still sounds as if it could have followed Cream on Diamonds and Pearls

Judas Kiss has had it's bridge repositioned

All the other songs sound the same just crisper and perhaps tighter.

Just thought you'd like to know.

This "album" actually turned out so well, that I'm throwing out my High compilation! I'm still missing When Will We Be Paid and My Medallion, though.

Without sounding totally dense,

what is Chocolate Invasion ?

Is this a studio album, if so, from what year ? Or is this a compilation ?

I already have a lot on my plate for the time being ( i.e. Crystal Ball, which I just got in the mail, but I'm saving it for my vacation in April ) but if Chocolate Invasion is that great, I'll download it before I leave and just save it for the trip.

On a side note, if anybody has a brief summary for Slaughterhouse or Xpectation, or any good words, I'd appreciate it.

I'll add my for what it's worth. Chocolate Invasion is worth it. Xpectation is absolutely not.

Rainbow Children is the only must haverooni.

Ignore all of these opinions (or better take them with a huge grain of salt). Pro or con. If I've learned anything from coming to the org is that opinions vary widely. Only your opinion will matter. And u can only have 1 after u have listened to the music. Plus u may get something and not like it only to pick it up down the line and love it. If u like Prince and u see something by Prince get it and make up your own mind.

do ya'll consdier Chocolate Invasion and The Slaughterhouse as regular Prince albums, to be included in his discography between Rave and TRC?

Course i do. Still we'd need 2 know if the songs have been reworked in 2000/2001 or in 2003 2 b rereleased ?

By the way, those of u who have it would b welcome 2 SHARE it (think of the guys who don't have a CC & boycott WMA anyway).

they are as official as xpectation. however, since they have only just now been made available as such, i would place them in his discography between N.E.W.S. and musicology.
