I don't own physical copies of four releases (The Undertaker, Goldnigga, ONA Piano, Kamasutra).

karmasutra
girl 6
c-note
ONA:live
diamond & pearls (i do have the video collection)

I have most of the officially released albums. The only ones I still don't own physical copies of are The Truth, Kamasutra, ONA piano disc, Goldnigga, and Exodus.

(I'm not counting stuff like C-Note, and Chocolate Invasion and so on as those never had a physical release to begin with).

I own every Prince/NPG/Madhouse (official copies of those were certainly hard to track down) album, including all NPGMC content, except "The Very Best of Prince", which I saw no reason to buy. My associated artists collection is a bit incomplete.

I saw someone mention The Undertaker above, was that ever an official album release? If so, I'm missing that one (but now have the copy from the lotus web site).

As far as I know, The Undertaker was never "officially" released on cd, as it was pulled before release. So it's technically a bootleg.

A CD pressed for official release but ultimately not released is not a bootleg.

langebleu said:

True, but what category does that put it in then? The same as the Black Album was before it was officially released in '94?

SexyMotha said:

What about all the produced albums, they count!

SexyMotha said:

As far as stuff that was actually released in a store, not some bullshiz wma or mp3, I don't own N.E.W.S., or One Nite Alone Live. Oddly, I don't own The Hits/The B-sides, only The Hits 1 and The Hits 2.

I don't own Goldnigga either.

A few

All these limited release ones like
Goldnigga, Exodus (Do have a get wild cassingle tho), NEWS, Chocolate Invasion, Slaughterhouse, ONA boxed set

Have just bought "The Vault, old friends 4 sale" just this week and actually quite like it, especially My Little Pill, Its about that walk, and She spoke to me

I wish I had these on Cd...

C-note (I don't have this, was it ever released on Cd?)
Xpectations (I only have a cd-r)
One Nite Alone... piano (only a cd-r)
The War (only a cd-r)

Same here. Undertaker and The War are the only originals I don't own, although I do have The War on cassette. (plus a spare if anyone wants to buy it)

thebeautifulones777 said:

These two and "One Night Alone." The Piano version.

I have the War, and although its one of my favourite songs, i have considered selling it, if i recieved an offer good enough.

How much is it worth these days anyway?

There are 9 I don't have. Can't name them all, but a few are, the new one, TRC, News. Xpectations (?) and some others that I don't know the name of but have read here.

The category would be: Rare. The 1987 Black Album was released and withdrawn, so limited legitimate copies circulated in CD and Vinyl form. The Undertaker copies that escaped death are indeed legitimate, though were coated with "shellac" in an effort to destroy them. There's a cleaned up legit copy for sale in the Marketplace forum right now, though it may have ended. Other rare withdrawn CDs would me the MPLS EP and Tamar's Japanese CD of Milk And Honey (also in the Marketplace).

All of these have been bootlegged/counterfeited, but they still exist in legitimate factory pressed form.

C-Note, Xpectation, The Chocolate Invasion and The Slaughterhouse were at one time slated to be part of a CD set, but Prince pulled the plug and only released them as lossy WMAs.

xenon said:

I have The War on cassette too. It came with a shirt in my mailbox after the Crystal Ball fiasco as a make-good. Which was pretty cool. I eventually bought The War on CD from either the Uptown NPG Store or from 1-800-New Funk/NPGMC.

rave (official) and vault. have copies, can't find em. the only things my ipod is missing. oh, the ONA live b-side.

GN

Xpectation

C-Note
Chocolate Invasion

Slaughterhouse

Goldnigga
Rave In2 The Joy Fantastic

squirrelgrease said:

can anyone confirm if that Tamar album is genuine - I know copies were pressed in Japan but these versions that have been up for sale on ebay have videos or the audio of the Prince/Tamar performance on the brits awards as a bonus - doesn't sound right.....

timmie said:

I can't vouch for this guy http://prince.org/msg/9/318854 with the Milk And Honey CD (the photo seems correct, though is it a photo of what he is actually selling? I guess I would inquire further). Anything with "bonus" stuff is usually a red flag that it's a counterfeit.

For instance, the Goldnigga with the 2gether mixes is a fake.
