Prince to release new CD set through Target NEW YORK - Prince is coming to a Target near you.
The superstar is releasing a three-disc CD set through the retailer at the end of this month. The set will include two new albums - "LOtUSFLOW3R" and "MPLSoUND" - as well as a third by his new artist, Bria Valente, for the price of $11.98. Prince is just the latest music legend to release new music exclusively through a major retailer. AC/DC and the Eagles were among the acts who sold millions of CDs through their partnership with Wal-Mart. Prince has released his recent CDs through major labels, but they were one-album deals that gave him the flexibility to go elsewhere when the project was done. Last fall, he released a coffee table book of photos titled "21 Nights" documenting his record-breaking, 21-night run at London's 02 Arena in 2007. The book also included a CD of live performances. "Prince has long been renowned as one of the world's most original and iconic musical artists," said Mark Schindele, Target's senior vice president of merchandising. "We are thrilled to have the opportunity to share his most recent work with our Target guests." The CD set will be on sale at Target and its Web site on March 29. | |

[Edited 3/2/09 16:43pm] Target doesn't ship Internationally. So he will have to find other retailers for the rest of the world. Not an easy prospect I'd imagine.... "My God it's full of Stars"

A plan might be in the works for the Europeans and the rest of the nations. March just started so we have to see what will happen. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

Europeans, what's the problem? just buy it on the web site? And if that isn't possible in europe, well we have a perfect excuse for downloading it via torrent then | |

But if we download it illegally, how will we know the sound quality is just as bad as the originals? All that bad production might get toned down if it's compressed to mp3. | |

Target is linked with amazon, so there is no problem for europeans to get the CD set! | |

Is this a reference to something else or do you actually think the production is bad on the stuff that's been heard so far? | |

Just a lighthearted comment on the production of the last few albums. I'll spare this one until I hear it properly. | |

The website? You mean amazon? Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |
