 You don't have to buy them, there are other ways to get them. but its wrong! its not nice to illegally record stuff. "So shall it be written, so shall it be sung..."  | |

I don't think they're recorded illegally, just distributed illegally. From what I can make of this, Paisley Park had some "leaks" and former employees were sneaking Prince's recordings out of the studio... that's part of where bootlegs come from. Anyway, I'm not looking for them or really care about getting them. But I've been offered them... Cuz the people here want to help me catch up cuz there's so much Prince material out there.
But I don't look for them out of respect because they're recordings that Prince didn't put his stamp of approval on. One interview, he said they were versions of songs he wrote that weren't written/recorded the way he intended. had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone | |

I'm not into bootlegs and I'm not looking for them. Somebody sent me a site full of them... I look one look around and I got a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach. So I backed away slowly and ran for the hills after that w/o looking [so I don't remember the address or care to]. Prince doesn't approve of them and for that reason, I won't get into them because I respect his wishes whenever/however I can. I'll just stick with collecting his released albums, thank you. see, but then he invites fans to his celebrations at paisley park and has polls for what unrleased songs they'd like to see on a "crystal ball 2". how would fans know to answer that poll if we hadn't heard the bootlegs? he knows we listen to them and he's engaged us on that topic. and in the crystal ball liner notes, talking about how "movie star" was d'angelo's favorite unreleased demo. did prince give him a good talking to? you wouldn't know it from the liner notes!
based on all this, i believe it's just fine to LISTEN to unreleased stuff. i think it's completely cool to TRADE and SHARE it. it's when money changes hands that it starts getting shady and ethicaly iffy, i think. fortunately, i think the coming of the internet has taken money out of bootleggers' hands and made the "catalog" of prince bootlegs available to anyone with a modem. i'm not sure what prince thinks of this, but i personally think it does him more good than harm. it just bolsters his legendary status as a creative whirlwind and an artist with more great work than he knows what to do with. bootlegs are a huge part of other artists' legacy - the grateful dead and bruce springsteen come to mind - and i think prince has become one of those artists over the past couple of decades. i think it helps him, whether he sees it that way or not. How true... | |
