UK CD's I am looking for good used Prince CD's and found some good deals on Ebay. A lot of them are offered from the UK. Quest: Would a UK CD be the same cuts, lineup as a US version? I am not even sure if these CD's sold from the UK are in fact UK versions... could be US released CD's.
Thanks in advance. "Remember, one man's filler is another man's killer" -- Haystack | |

Thanks in advance. I believe that 99% of the UK cds are the same as the US versions. The only cd that appears to be different to me is Diamonds and Pearls. The cover is a little different (at least my version is). **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

The US version of Sign 'O' The Times is actually a 2 CD set, but the UK version is a single CD!!!
I have no idea why that is, despite the fact that the track listing is the same in both versions!!! [Edited 11/9/04 23:05pm] | |

The original UK Pressing was a 2 CD set
It was later consolidated to a single CD following the technology being improved. | |

That's what I was thinking. I ain't ever seen SOTT on a single disc.  | |

That's what I was thinking. I ain't ever seen SOTT on a single disc. You used to buy the double CD in a double jewel case a la The Hits/B-sides, whereas now you get the double CD in a single jewel case with the flip CD holder. I think that must be what is meant when referring to a single CD? You also used to be able (when you could get the double CD in a double jewel case) to buy Sides 1 & 2 on a single CD, and sides 3 & 4 on a second single CD. I believe. | |

I think that is the more accurate answer. | |

What about the tracked Lovesexy, that seems to be a more UK/european thing?
Also that rare UK only release 'The Eyes of Prince' which has a totally different tracklist to the non-existant one in the U.S of Bush. I think 'An honest man (piano instrumental)' is not on the non-us version. And 'Do U lie' (lies mix) is the last track. | |
