Prince Ballet score Does anyone know anything about a full length ballet called "Kama Sutra" that Prince wrote the score for? He mentions it very briefly on the liner notes of "Emancipation" on the song "The Plan". It's beautiful music and I would love to hear the whole score. He also worked with the Joffrey Ballet some years back, I'm wondering if he wrote this for them. I'm a dancer and a huge Prince freak so any info would be greatly appreciated!! | |

You can get the "Kamasutra" album as part of the 5-CD crystal ball set. It's very iffy, I don't really have an opinion on it one way or the other, and I never listen to it. It's a very interesting piece of work to say the least. "Knowledge is preferable to ignorance. Better by far to embrace the hard truth than a reassuring faith.

Thank you for the info... I've looked on Amazon and Ebay, but am only finding the 4 cd set that doesn't contain "kama sutra". Do you think I should try the NPG website? | |

The 5 cd set has sold out at the music club. | |

Keep looking on Ebay, it should turn up. If it doesn't I can probably make you a copy, but I also recommend you looking for a track list and trying to download it on Kazaa Lite.

Oh, and I don't know where you live, but I first heard this album at my local library, which stocks an amazing quantity of CDs, so you might want to check this place out.

If anyone has the dvd of this and would be willing to make me a copy, I would pay you for sure! I'll keep my eyes open for the cd, but I would really love to have this video if anyone can help me out! ~ Alhiyh Don't be shy, this won't hurt a bit
Unless of course U don't believe in it | |
