backing up...
then again, in the past i've hooked people up with stuff, reimbursed and not (a lot of the time i send stuff to folks outta the kindness of my heart). it's almost noon here in mpls and i'm about to go to lunch. i'm gonna go over to borders to see if the set's on their shelves. if it is, i might buy a copy and help someone out. i'm doubting it's at borders, but then again...who knows? stay tuned and cross yer fingers. | |

I don't see how it is going to be sold at somewhere as public as Borders when all these other places are saying it has either been cancelled, postponed or recalled! Let's face it folks, it has been cancelled/postponed as was revealed 2 weeks ago, even though they had actually manufactured and sent out the CD... and it looks like it's going to be harder to find than even the original Black Album! With all the advertising they did for this - recalling it is going to be costly for them - plus all the new advertising needed if it ever does get released at a later date - Warners are not going to be happy with the way this experiment in working with Prince went... | |

Are there official details on the reason for the recall? Rumors even? | |

I GOT IT.
Went to Target and Circuit City in Jacksonville Florida this morning and found nothing. Circuit City had posted a notice that the "street date had been changed." I figured there was no use in going to Best Buy, but I went on my lunch break and much to my surprise, they had 3 copies. I bought them all. The track list is different than what I've seen posted online, but the sound quality is great. Hearing early-era tracks remastered really makes me hope all the more that Prince will give his back catalog the remastering treatment that it so badly needs.

Scans to come later when I get home. Don't know if I have it in me to do a review since these songs (even the remixes) are old material to me. Disc 1. (Some tracks are the edited single versions.)

Those 2 disappeared at an early stage, it was rumoured Prince stepped in and asked for some changes. Well, I can only think that place is selling it because they haven't heard about the recall - this is going to be a complete mess, if some places have it and some don't... | |

Wow. This is the first time I've seen Stephin Merritt's name come up in these-here forums. Though I must admit he has more projects out there than I've had time to keep up with. But I'm getting off topic. "I Was FINE Back in the Day!" | |

I don't think I will ever test your theory and pass up money lying on the sidewalk. It reminds me of a lottery commercial airing in the NYC area where a couple looks outside their window and sees bundles of money falling from the sky. The woman urges the man to go outside and get it quick. The man says to hold on, there's only 6 or 7 million and to wait until there's more. No sooner does he finish the sentence then other people start screaming "money!" and in two seconds all the money is gone. | |

If it's been canceled or was supposed to be pulled, someone forgot to tell the Best Buy in Clearwater, FL cuz I just got one of the 20+ they have. |

Goddammit. I can't believe I passed up going to Best Buy on my lunch hour to try another shady store that didn't have it. | |

SlamGlam said: oops i should have checked fr topics... i just made one about NOT getting it...(sometimes i forget what board this is on the other one no one cares if there are 20 topics on the same thing)
so i guess i will post my stories here: Well I went to Target and the guy was just putting up a sign saying it was “postponed.” I Chuckled and asked if they had any in the back? He said “Well if we did we could not sell them anyway.” And I told him I knew it had been canceled and he just looked at me. Then it was off to best buy, the said “oh yeah we have it right over here.” But as it turned out no such luck. He asked if I wanted to leave my number I said “no it was canceled” and he asked “then why did you ask us to look for it?” I shrugged and said “I was hoping you did not get the memo.” "Todo está bien chévere" Stevie | |

I don't think I will ever test your theory and pass up money lying on the sidewalk. money is money. a compilation is a compilation. in either case, if i really need either one i can always get it at any given time. i needn't have it if i don't wanna have it; i'll leave it for whoever does need it, though. | |

i wouldn't be at all surprised if it's up before the week's over. it'd be a stupid thing to have as a boot, though. | |
