Dream Factory, Crystal Ball, Camille or Sign O the Times

Its 1987 and Prince ask you to chose which album he should release out of Dream Factory Crystal Ball Camille and Sign O The Times, which would you pick.

For me it would have to be Crystal Ball

Crystal Ball.

although all of them are absolutely stellar projects, uncompared
before or after that imo. it was his creative peak, thus so many
excellent and classic tunes.

Me too. Since the deluxey spiffed-up bootleggage version popped up a few years ago, I have it filed in with my WB-released Prince albums and I treat it like an "official" release, kinda like I did with the Black Album back in the day. Nowadays, I listen to DF more than i listen to SOTT. nod

This is tough because essentially they are all the same album that just kept evolving. I guess I would definetly say Camille and a tie between CB and DF. However, no matter what you pick, you still have one of the greatest Prince albums ever.

I think the second configuration of the Dream Factory was better than the final one.

Totally agree.

Plus I would also add that there was no "final" version of Dream Factory,
there is just the 'last' version made before it was shelved (which is not
quite the same thing, as Dream Factory was never finished)

The 2nd configuration is actually truer to what the Dream Factory album was
supposed to be (a 'Revolution' record). The 3rd configuration was made when
Prince already knew the Revolution wasn't going to last, and started replacing
a lot of the 'band' orientated material with more 'solo' tracks.

Dream Factory was shelved within a few weeks of the 3rd configuration
being compiled to tape.
