Still Think "I Wish U Heaven" pt 1,2,3 should be on this compilation.

One of his very best extended versions. Oh Well

Tang 17 - if you are still around... in your honest opinion will the 're-mastered' versions SOUND vastly superior..? or would it be more honest to say the appeal of the set is rare versions and the no doubt beautiful artwork.

i've heard many "re-mastered" albums and i have to say they vary in quality and noticable sound improvement.

Disc 2 will obviously be more noticeable since the versions that were on Euro CD-5s were straight transfers from backup sources, not any masters. One thing is that Prince's early recordings are very HIGH and he started adding more bass with Purple Rain. So there's only so much you can do. But it sounds great to me (I work on a lot of compilations, like all the marvin gaye stuff and in those cases, you can do a lot more because contracts are different). But I am very very happy with it (and the outer packaging printing is stunning). But there are always those who complain and I notice that with Prince, there are more than with anyone else.

If it's really true what Tang17 said (not doubting ur honesty...) that Prince asked 2 take "Erotic City" and "Sexy MF" out of the tracklis...and if the reason for it was really about his religious belief...well the I'll get worried about the remasters of his old albuns (if they ever come out). Becuz there's a lot of dirty on there and I imagine if he wanna clean that up...If so, I'd really not b little interested and lot disappointed...
I don't Nikki 2 b "reading the bible in the mezzanine" instead of popin' his pussy with a dirty mag...
