In 1999/2001 we could have had 6 new albums If didn't mess up with Wendy & Lisa back then, 'Roadhouse garden' would've also shown up, making 1999 a great year:
Roadhouse Garden, Prince And The Revolution (in spring) The Vault - old friends 4 sale, Prince (summer) Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic, (autumn) And if he didn't change his mind about 'Crystal Ball Vol.2' and 'High', 2000/01 would have been like this: 2000 Rave In2 The Joy Fantastic, (spring) Crystal Ball Vol.2, (whenever) 2001 High, Prince (first half of the year) The Rainbow Children, Prince (october) | |

instead what we got was:
rave un2 the joy fantastic the vault rave un2 the joy fantastic chocolate invasion slaughterhouse the rainbow children plus an album's worth of unreleased/non album tunes [when will we b paid, my medallion, one song, jukebox with a heartbeat etc] i'm counting 7 it is a real shame about roadhouse garden though, i'm still over that one and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

U shouldn't count 'Rave In2' (I would count 7 too, otherwise). Besides, 'Crystal Ball Vol.2' and 'Roadhouse garden' never showed up so, as far as I can appreciate the NPGMC songs, it's not the same. | |

I haven't heard "Chocolate Invasion," or "Slaughterhouse,"...But the music that Prince had those years kept me company. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

My thoughts exactly The only two albums I own from that period are Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic and The Rainbow Children. The first gets a bad rap and have heard its his worst release ever when it came to sales. The second... to me doesn't scream Prince Shoulda, woulda, coulda... u can't change the past. I'm just glad this isn't one of those posts that directly attacks Prince for the decisions he made. Seen far too many of those had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone | |

Seen far too many of those i like rave actually and its suprising 2 me it didnt sell well becuase i think its one of his more commercially sounding albums (great easy on the ears melodies etc) and im suprised So Far,So Pleased wasnt a single, thats definitley my fave from the album Everybody's looking 4 the ladder
Everybody wants salvation of the soul The steps U take are no easy road But the reward is great 4 those who want 2 go | |
