Heres the link:

dont know if this has been discussed before, but is this CD any good?

Been waiting for ages on amazon, very slow at sending it.

Was wondering if anyone has it/heard it/like it/hate it?

It has been discussed. Those are not new recordings. The tracks are from Bob Belden's two Prince tribute cds, which were released in the mid-90's. It's a mixed bag, but probably as solid a tribute as you will find out there. I've played the first Belden cd when I had company a couple of times, and non-fans seem to like it a lot. This compilation seems better than the original cds they are from, simply because it excludes an horrible version of the already horrible Arms of Orion.

Let's put an end to this hatin' on Arms Of Orion.

I quite like it. And the Belden cover as well.

I bought this a few months back from the Virgin Megastore in London,and it's pretty nice.

Decent background coffee table jazz for when you have people round, but nothing great. I probably like the cover of Kiss the most, and When Doves Cry has grown on me a lot too.

In the absence of a new Prince album, it serves a purpose.
