You're an Aussie, right? Where do you live?! I live in Sydney and can't find ANY thing like that. The best thing I found was Sign O the Times VHS (NTSC) for $14.95 at Utopia Records in George St.

Oh and I got one of the first copies of One Night Alone...Live from Red Eye Records for Christmas.

yeah im in Adelaide, . .. found these at Krypton,at Glenelg . .. . all this prince stuff was in a bunch 2gether.
ive found Crystal Ball w/ Kamasutra at a sto' in Melbourne . . . .WAAAY overpriced.
4get what sto' it was,big joint,sells heaps rare stuff.

here its hard 2 get P stuff . . . .. . i have ONAL burnt,i want the real deal i just dont wana pay crazy prices @ RedEye.
i got my 4cd Crystalball there 18 months ago for $100.also Lovesexy tracked,& some other albumz.

all the main vid releases i have rented & copied,except PR,Hits,Rave all on DVD & D&P collection on VHS bought 2nd hand.

I got SOTT vhs for $4.99 on Half.com. Check them out - you'll find tons of P stuff up there super cheap.

Sounds like Adelaide is the place to be for Prince stuff in Australia. Sydney has NOTHING (although I got Crystal Ball at Red Eye and all the DVDs elsewhere, too).

Even the video stores here only have Purple Rain for rental.

My friend...SYDNEY has lots of Prince stuff!!!

U just have 2 know where 2 look...

Been a fan since '91 and have scored ALL of Prince's back catalogue 12"s, 7"s, UK 12" picture discs, CD singles, boots - vinyl & CD and stacks of other stuff.

This was over 10 years but the stuff is out there...just look beyond Red Eye and HMV and you'll find this stuFF!!!

(Waiting 4 the next reply..."Where???")

PS. GO JOSH...Adelaide does have some FINE women, i should know!!!

Okay...Where? I have the whole back catalogue, which I found here...I'd love to find boots though and live videos and UTCM especially and not have to pay over the net.

poostix

ok we SOOO need 2 get an aussie thing goin!
some huge prince party,someone must know a club owner in
melbourne or Sydney,which would be easier even tho im in Adelaide. . . .
would be central 2 ppl in A*Town,BrisVegas,yadda yadda . .. .

a huge prince nite in2 The Dawn

MrD . . . . .in that thread about catching up,becoming an Up2Date Fan . .. . .
i stated where i got all my stuff over the years . . .
alot in Sydney,
but Krypton here even had Black Album 2nd hand,GB 2nd hand..(had 2 get GB in Sydney back in '01) .. . .Exodus . .. . .Exodus i got 2nd hand at Empire records,which was a store here that use 2 have HEAPS of P stuff,rare singles,bootlegs (a Europe Nude show that was SB but all crackly,besides that i wanted it BAD! & when they were closing down so it was half off!).....but they shut down (got Emporium from there,some singles,they had Work It 12" for $200! ! !
i laughed,i know its rare but bloody hell! )

yeah those lil places r best,Empire was a tiny store in Hindley St,Big Star here has a huge 2nd hand section downstairs in Rundle St here . . . .
u jus got2 look around,keep ur eyes & ears open . ..

***the BEST place is cd & record fairs!!!***
i have snagged some choice stuff from the one that comes here & is at Woodville every 3 months.
bootlegs,picture wax,old rolling stone issues with Prince (got the Wendy/Lisa 86 issue)

& one dude hwo sells bootleg vids & cd's he records himself & has contacts also.

so record/cd/comic fairs r the #1 place i say

PS: DEREK . . . .did u use2 live in A*Town ?

My opinion - shop wise, Sydney is a bit scarce for Prince releases.

Back in like '94, '95, I went to this second hand store on the Gold Coast, Surfers Paradise, On the Gold Coast Hwy, near the corner of Cavill Ave (the name of the store escapes me, although it was no shop front, it was a door way with stairs that led up to the store above some shops)

This place ROCKED! They sold about 60 - 100 bootlegs, current at the time. I was pissed off (namely I dropped into this place at the end of my trip just before heading to the airport, and I spent all my money during my holiday, so I couldn't buy any).

Since going back 2 the Gold Coast, I cannot find this place, It must have moved. If anyone knows where, please let me know!

That would be cool.



I just got that very same issue last week in Glebe at a second hand music/book store!

Rave in2 the joy fantastic (NPG VER.) $4.99!
0)-> live at the Budokan in Tokyo 3CD set (liveboot $11.00)
Rosie Gaines Closer than close CD $2.99!
