That would be cool and very low-cost to Prince, since if I read Giovanni's post right, he's already recorded a lot of extra material. The pick-list 4 this cd contained at least 40 songs..... Doing a multidisc release with folks requesting discs beyond the first would certainly test the old "Emancipation was too much music for people to digest" theory, now wouldn't it?  We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

If PE is really good, you know a decent percentage of people would buy disc 2. Especially nowadays, where music seems to have a shelf-life that's measured in hours. | |

There's a decent percentage that would buy 2 and 3 even if disc 1 sucked. I don't know whether to laugh...or blush! We don’t mourn artists because we knew them.

I don't know whether to laugh...or blush! Yeah, I'm one of them. But you know the kids these days, always wanting what's "new". If there's a hit or two on PE #1, the kids would jump all over #2. If there WAS a PE #2, how quick would you make it available if you were Prince? Immediately? A week after PE#1 drops? A month? | |

Yes it would work on me unfortunately.
I buy all Prince albums (CDs) I don't like hardly any of his new stuff, but curiosity mixed with hope, keeps me buying. and most of us here whether you are a fam and  love everything
or like me ...like the older stuff much better, (miss the good album (cd) covers too!) | |

Giovanni777 said: It would be possible, considering the amount of material he's recorded since '3121', but it wouldn't be easy 2 do, unless he made it 3 volumes, and labeled them as such... Kind of like what was planned 4 Maxwell's next release.
Whatever did happen 2 the Maxwell release? Anyone know? "He's a musician's musician..." |

But it will be a pleasure to listen to some new Prince music, I'm sure.  [Bait snip - luv4u] | |

The CD booklet said something along the lines of "For the next installment of New Power Soul on cassette, call 1-800-New-Funk" (which was amusing since Exodus wasn't available in the US). I called New Funk from the UK, and was told that the New Power Soul casette, the follow-up to Exodus, would be available in the Summer. This was back in 1995, remember... It would be interesting if Prince was now trying a more virtual approach 12 years later. | |

Graycap23 said: What would u guys think if Planet Earth was 3 different cd's containing 3 different track lists?
Could that idea work? [Edited 6/13/07 14:35pm] i'd say it would be 3D. But seriously u get more for ur money that way! | |

Graycap--To answer your question...I think it would be cool if he did release 3 different versions. Me being the hopelessly devoted fan that I am I'd buy all three. I would pretty much take any new music Prince would give me.
To all of you shit starters: Take it somewhere else.  If you don't like or believe Graycap FINE, but learn to be an ADULT and ignore things you don't like. Don't you guys have anything better to do than sit around and complain! Geesh...  | |

It depends. If they have the same core album, but a different bonus track slapped on the different versions, I'd be pretty nonplussed. If each disc had completely different songs, I'd buy them in a heartbeat. Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018! Let'a celebrate his legacy by counting down the most beloved Prince albums, as decided by you! | |

gimicky. the hardcore fans would get them all, leaving the general public to get the one with the least ugly album cover. "What kind of fuck ending is that?" | |

Could that idea work? [Edited 6/13/07 14:35pm] Are you saying three completely different tracklists, or perhaps some core songs that are on each cd and then alternate tracks? I would think that songs such as "Planet Earth" and "Guitar", maybe "Somewhere" would surely be on all versions. I am just dying with the notion of the possibility of 3 cds. Have you heard anything that leads to this speculation? I've got a guitar that can part the sea. | |
