I had this, but lost it (dont ask me how but suffice to say a pretty girl was involved.

this stuff's great.

Does anyone have the black album on vinyl?

I have a lot of the items mentioned, but I think you just need to make a difference between 7", 12", LP, CD and CDsingles (and perhaps even CSsingles, 8-tracks)

For instance, I am missing :

Lewis Connection LP
Syndicate Japan 7"
The Future promo CDsingle
I Can't Make You Love Me promo CDsingle
Slave / New World promo cassette
NPG Records sampler 2000 cassette
1999 French 12"

AND
SO
ON
.....

purple vinyl WTF you got rid of it?

is the german colored vinyl of the black album worth much/rare?

shonenjoe said:

The last time I heard of an original Black Album vinyl pressing was at a Sotheby's auction and it went for $13,500. Never of any circulating after that. It was reported that only 500 originals survived Prince destroy order.

Im still gagging for this ... a proper copy of Undertaker

What about paisley park 12"with the miss print.can't remember what the print error was without digging my copy out of cold storage!

Exactly how rare is this, anyone? What's the rough price that you'd expect this to go for?

One recently sold for $ 13,15 : http://cgi.ebay.com/CAT-g...7C294%3A50


The vinyl press goes for about $ 10 : http://cgi.ebay.com/CAT-C...7C294%3A50

That price for the CD is a bargain. I don't think the seller knew what he had.

Not sure how rare any of this is but just some odd things i have picked up over many years of being a Prince fan (in addition to all the regular stuff):

Controversy promo 12" vinyl
Under the Cherry Moon Laser Disc
Alphabet Street 12" vinyl in clear plastic slip cover
Glam Slam 12" vinyl in clear plastic slip cover
I Wish You Heaven 12" with Camille b-side "Scarlet P*ssy"
Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic vinyl
Rainbow Children vinyl
Black Album 1994 cd edition with gold foil promo stamp
New Power Generation cd in gold box with purple embossed symbol
When Will We B Paid cd single
Supercute cd single
Rave In2 the Joy Fantastic NPGMC version
One Night Alone
S.S.T/Brand New Orleans cd single
Te Amo Corazon cd/dvd in gatefold cover

The 12" version of Little Red Corvette was a rarity for me.

Thank goodness it was released on CD.

I spent most of the 80's and 90's looking for it.

Tell me why you think that is rare???

Shango said:

Yep, it's a boot and cute photo plastered on the album (although it looks like it was cut with pre-school scissors).
