What we need is a DVD release of "The directors cut" of Purple Rain, with the deleted scenes and songs

Who remembers that fake tracklisting that appeared in the first edition of Per Nilsen's 'Prince:A Documentary' book?

We can laugh about it now,but back then I was determined to find a bootleg copy! I was desperate to hear this.

Yeah, that tracklist was crazy. LOL! Just think, people really did believe that it was true. LOL!

Hey, I was much younger back then!

I certainly did

it's perfect as is.

But a reissue with re-masters and a second disc of outtakes, b-sides, e.t.c... would, as we would all agree, be welcome with lavish praise and some serious sales: at least from the org.

If they ever do a 25th anniversary edition, I'd like to see:

G-Spot
Wednesday
Father's Song

Maybe: Electric intercourse or Possessed (vocal) as extras.

I think a remastered version of 'Purple Rain' would be great and is needed now but I think Prince is gonna wait and do that himself just bcuz I think he has alot of ideas 4 his albums and his music that r gonna surprise tha fans and supporters. He's the same guy who came up with the compilation that featured his classic ballads back in 2000 'When 2 R in Love: The Ballads of Prince' (I think was the title) and Warner Brothers did green light the compilation. The Crystal Ball series is another great idea by Prince and the way it was planned was cool.

How do we know this was a fake list? Where did Per come up with it? It always seemed realistic to me.

If this tracklist was real,the unfamiliar songs would have surely leaked by now,dontcha think? Uptown has said that this tracklist was created by a German collector who was selling some bootleg songs that weren't even by Prince.

the instrumental played by he guys in the band(when the Kid showed up late) was on the Royal Jewels vinyl 3 disc set
