should Prince do a time-life type deal

Stay with me for a minute...

isnt it time Prince mended his bridges with WB...and did a time-life style deal...

a dvd/cd every fortnight with notes from the man himself...explaining his head space and why he now chooses to ignore/change some of said early work.

give the fans what they want...re-mastered..cds...

and release the videos...

its out there anyway, whether he likes it or not..

he could always donate proceeds to his faith

Just a thought ....

a girl can dream lol!

seems that i was busy doing something close to nothing, but different than the day before music beret

Warner Bros. Records is no longer owned by AOL/Time/Warner. so if he's going to mend fences with WB (records) he might as well just do a regular remaster series directly with them. or Rhino, if that makes him feel better about it.

thats why i said time-life style, so youse all knew what i was talking about

he'd have to get the masters from WB first though, wouldnt he?

It seems to me he has tried a lot of other things..traditional label releases/internet/dept store/newspapers etc..

TV could be something new.

Or, why not periodical (magazine) releases...fortnightly mag with dvd/cd.

now that would be worth going to work a least once a fortnight for...Prince selling day lol

We will get this and More when Prince Owns His Masters.wink

Prince did an interview with a woman at Record World. They talked about whatever, then he asked her: "Does your pubic hair go up to your navel?" At that moment, we thought maybe we shouldn't encourage him to do interviews.

Being a fan sinds 1980 (30 years this year, yes!) it seems I always want more. Another 4 weeks to go til Werchter!

I love Prince and chocolate - in that order

Exactly. It would basically communicate he's a has-been and irrelevant.. besides, there are other ways of getting a deal done without lowering himself to infomercials.
