You know you see something, get all geeked about getting it, and then pretty soon you don't know why the hell you paid money for it. Mine is a CD interview of Prince--I listened to it one time and put it away. Another is that "Billboards" VHS tape of the Joffrey Ballet--uggh.

An expensive bootleg vinyl copy of "The Black Album" that I bought in 1990.I paid a fortune for it because I thought that it would never be officially released

The Emancipation lyric book! What a waste of money.

Xpertlover said:

LOL! I bought one too, then I got 2 extra ones free, they can't get rid of the things, I bet they use 'em for bog roll at Paisley Park.

NouveauDance said:

Haha... though it is actually a rather sad thing... with all the pics of Prince in the baby's room...

Still a goddamn waste of money though.

Every CD between 1997 and 2003.

- 1999: The New Master

- various bootlegs which are just AWFUL in quality (including those piss-poor "TV features/appearances around the world" VHSs)

- A really crap "Sign O The Times" desk clock from the Camden Town Prince Shop

- various posters

- NEO MANIFESTO (i still like it, but it was grossly overpriced when i bought it)

- Kama Sutra

The Diamonds & Peals note transcriptions. There's really not that much to play, those transcriptions on all the classic Prince albums were just piss-poor quality (except maybe for "Purple Rain"). And I had to have the one of "D&P" because the local library didn't have it in its collections.

"Good Love" , "Crucial" , and "Comeback" are great to me !

The complete Emancipation album. It was the first album that I didn't buy at the day of release since Purple Rain. I decided to listen to it first and I was so turned off by it that I didn't buy it until I saw it for 8 euro about three years later. Even these miserable 8 little euro's proved to be too much money for this collection of plastic, watered down Prince tunes. I still hate the album with a passion!

the hits/the b-sides box set.

Emancipation

You don't have no use for the B-sides???

funkaholic1972 said:

not when you begin to get hold of the b-sides plus more, in the form of bootleggage. i had a use for the box set when i first started gettin into prince but as time went on and i started gettin hooked up with stuff, it became obsolete.

Y does everybody hate Emancipation? I really like it.

the consensus 'round here seems to be split down the middle: some like it, others don't.

iwannabeurlover said:

I likey

all these damn bootlegs my addicted behind keeps downloading...some of them are REALLY nice..and then some suck or r just in shit quality

Neo Manifesto - Horrid, bad, ugly photoshop hell

NouveauDance said:

Can i have one??

iwannabeurlover said:

I don't hate it, I just never listen to it because it's not very good.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

The consensus wasn't like that some years ago. It's the new brethren of .orgers that generally dislike it, most old-timers call it the best of the 90s anyway. And believe me funkaholic: had you paid 40 euros for that record in the first place, like the rest of us, you would have bloody hell been forced to like that goddamn record.
