This is a beautiful acoustic piano album! It sometimes reminds me of Prince's debut LP "For You". My question is, whether the "The Truth" is an acoustic guitar album or is it an acoustic piano album? And also, is it any good? hmmm

"The Truth" isn't a strictly "Acoustic Guitar" Album. It does have Synth Keyboards sprinkled throughout the songs. But it does have lots of Acoustic Guitar based songs on it. It's great! I Love it! If U can find it...get it!

i think "the truth" is CONSIDERED an acoustic guitar album, but it doesn't pretend at all to be an "unplugged" album...but it's acoustic for PRINCE. lol

i think "one nite alone" is a lot more stripped-down than the truth and might be the purer-sounding album of the two, but i also think the two albums compliment and contrast each other very well.

I think it should have been released as a double CD..Disc 1 - One Nite Alone..Disc 2 - The Truth

There's one listed on ebay right now for $200.00.

I want one bad, but not that bad.
I do have it downloaded onto my hard drive though.
