PrintableWe have 2 remember that the album was made in the early days of CD. A large proportion of the sales would have been on Vinyl & Tape. So it's natural to experiment with relatively new technology.
Back then people weren't used 2 the convenience of digital 4mats like we r now. I'm sure nobody would try (or even be allowed 2) release an album like that nowadays. (D') | |

You could always download a tracked copy of Lovesexy to save some time. I mean, you own it - no harm, no fowl. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

 My initial reaction too, but if a new fan picks up Lovesexy in the US, how are they to know. | |

I live in the UK. Bought it the day it was released. Thought there was something wrong with it as couldn't skip the tracks. Went back to the point of purchase fuming and insisted they try several other CDs which they did. Pissed me off then and still does.Argghh | |

Well, at least you can get the tracked CD easily now. US residents have to get the Import.If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Back in 1988,I wasn't into CDs yet,so I had the cassette and the vinyl album.The "continuous play" thing didn't affect me at all  But nowadays,listening to 'Lovesexy' on CD is so annoying.There are many times when I wanna skip over the first half of it and go straight to "Lovesexy","When 2 R In Love" and "I Wish U Heaven" (my three favorite songs on the album). | |
