Let's wait and see it this really comes out. Earlier this yer Rhino promised the 2 CD se Ultimate Prince and cancled it. Will the stick to it an really release this? Once can hope. If this does not come out I will to take my VCR out of the tomb it is in to see the video.

An important question.....will it be digitally remastered?

After he won that "webbie" he closes down npg music club, go figure.

Oh man...
Im selling D&P VHS now plus some other videos on VHS and DVD and other stuff. Im moving and I gotta get rid of my collection fast!

You know what I thought about that! I'm eagerly awaiting the Ultimate Prince CD only for Little Red Corvette mix which I heard is insane (in a good way).

I've marked that date, but like you said, I have to keep an open mind with all these delays.

Already preordered it from Barnes& Noble


ahhh...capitalism

Why stop there?

Now that they the labels are wising up to the fact that there has always been a residual market for die-hards still going strong I see very little reason why they can't also issue the totally awesome Earl's Court gig from 1992, which Prince had also planned to release at one point.

Unlike "Live", of which there is a terrific Fullasoul DVD release which everyone must check out, Earl's Court has never been available either on VHS or Laserdisc.

Let's sign a petition right away.

I'm there.... later

hey this is so weird reading this cos i own Ultimate PrinceI bought it in Darwin 3 months ago really nicely pakaged they musta made a mistake selling it there yeah the little red corvette dance mix is awesome

I cant wait for this release but i would of loved it better if it had some concert footage also from the diamonds and pearls tour from back in either 91 or 92.(ah,the good old days!!!!)

Dont suppose there will be any chance of a video of Violet The Organ Grinder Either???.That Was So cool Back in the Day.

the 'gett off' video e.p. would be an EXCELLENT bonus feature, but i'm sure we won't be so lucky.

Cant wait 4 the dvd!!!

What is the price of this DVD??

Watch them cancell it just like Ultimate.

Hi

Emailed the folks at rhino asking them if any other releases were scheduled... specifically Live 84 and Lovesexy.... here's the reply....

Unfortunately, Diamonds and Pearls is the only upcoming release I can find in our records, but thank you for your input, I will forward your letter to our suggestion box.

So.... Who knows... maybe if we all email them they may add some more releases....

heres a link to the email address....

drrhino@rhino.com

Set to it you purple hippies

Dr Feelgood? Call the Law? hmmm

cancelling the Ultimate hits was PRINCE'S ideal, not the company's.

SIRTONY said:

what would keep prince from making it very inconvenient for them to release this too?

Anx said:

Maybe he has a new album coming out on that date.

I think I have the same collection on VHS,
kind of boring, but the Willing and able-live version is slammin' !

Don't get too excited about watching 'Thunder' live because there is only a few seconds of it. Willing & Able is wicked though.

Dan said:

Exactly what I was thinkin, don't waste ur money otherwise.

I like the D & P Video Collection. "Willing and Able" (live in the studio) is off da hook!!!! Being a trumpeter I love the hornz. I also can't gett enough of Michael B. and the ending of "Call the Law". If that ain't bringin' it, then I don't know what is!!

Here's the collection you really want, bitches...

csmusician said:

- Yes! And there is an excerpt of Prince and Rosie playing ´Dr Feelgood´ live that is amazing ( I would love to have the full version)...and let´s not forget the bombastic ´Live 4 love´ in the end. Too bad Prince put some plane sounds....but the guitars are great. ´Gett off´ clip is cool also. I would love to have this DVD...
