I have these on tape and really wish I could get them on cds. Can this be done??

I have already replaced half my Prince Tape Collection with CD's, but I am still trying to find the rest of his CDs to update my music. Boarders here is a wash out. I am unsure of buying on Ebay, I want originals, and legal originals.

Anyone got any ideas on bringing my music into the year 2009???? Where can I go to buy his released CD's thats credible? I guess I should add that I put all my store bought CD's in my Itunes. I have never bought from itunes either....I kinna like the jacket covers and such. I rather have it to look at.

Feeling rather old right now.

Thanks, after puttering around the forums, i think my best bet is ebay. I am still looking though.

You know how many tapes I have??

What a waste!!!

I am kicking myself because many many times I passed up buying a cd by telling myself I already own the tape.

Live and learn I guess.....

I always thought it would be nice if Prince put those songs out again. Maybe Prince will someday...Everybody loves them...and "Spirit," 2...

If you're looking for the Martika version, which is the only official one of "Don't Say U Love Me" I believe, Secondspin.com has it for $2.09.

And to think I teased my mother about her 8 track tapes.

If you're after CD's with Prince singing those songs, you won't find them legally as they were never official releases.

Like TheEnglishGent said, they were never released officially with Prince vocals. Anything you find is a bootleg.

They are great tracks though - especially Open Book. Very sad track.

U said my heart's just like an open book
But there are lines U've never seen
U said that U could tell in a single look
But U never looked in between
Sometimes I wanted 2 keep U, sometimes I wanted your love
But I've awakened 2 the reality that sometimes is not enough
Oh, our separate dreams pulled us our separate ways
We were so different from the very start
2 me it was 4ever, 2 U it was just a phase
I'll give back your name if U give back my heart

Its hard to love his music, but easy to respect his wishes.

Its just sad to think these beautiful songs are out there and cannot be enjoyed by the people who love him the most.

Anyone bought off of ebay before?? his music?? Any recomendations of sellers??
