I think he should do something like the Kaiser's did on their last album:

http://theaudioperv.com/2...d-sell-it/

Let the fans compile an album out of 20+ available tracks, let them create the artwork and allow them to put a link to their creation on their websites/blogs and earn revenue on sales.

That way, you're chosing your favourite 10 tracks, so you can't moan about disliking the album, plus there's an incentive to promote your version of the album and get paid for it...

...and let's face it, we'd all buy the other available tracks as well, cause we're suckers! smile

Good idea but Prince would never cede that much control to fans ever!

I know. Which probably means we'll get more 'Everybody Loves Me', 'Chocolate Box' & 'Never B Another Like Me' barf

He could do a subtler version like he did when he asked fans to choose tracks for Crystal Ball II out of a list of many...then the ones with the most votes make the album....

Yeah, so subtle that it's never frickin' released! biggrin What a triumph of marketing that was lol.

blah blah blah

I want a new album too! He will probably release a new album when he finishes his tour.

Um, no. You just have to know where to look. And trust me, the sources are MANY to be able to get the music from. We were able to get 20Ten here in the States (even though it wasn't released here AT ALL) the first hour it came out in the papers.

I think a new full release proper album every 2-3 years (get in bed with a label for one-off deal), and smaller lo-profile releases inbetween (live, vault or experimental work) - these can be internet only releases or mail order like NEWS.CB.

Instead of releasing a new, rushed, crappy album, take a few years to make a new masterpiece.



I concur. Hell,get an iPad 2 and garage band and make the Magnus opus.
One of the things missing in Princes music is honesty.
Write about the loss of your child, and to try again.
Failed marriages and trying to find love...again.
What you think about Obama.
What you think about Michael Jackson being gone.
Money.

And before some of u orgers start generalizing and attacking. Think about how complete dirty mind was. Or controversy. Even 1999 concise (although just extended songs to fill two lps.

No album. I'd rather he work on his legacy, i.e. begin working on remasters with WB (which includes all the fireworks that go along with such reelases).

2010 is great but it is clear that is not an album he is going to push. So bring us some new FONK for the 2011/2012. In fact he should drop an album every year and name it 2011, 2012, 2013 so on and so forth. biggrin




You're on your own on that one... disbelief



...UNLESS it's something from the vault from at least 20 years ago. nod



I concur!

I am ok with, ney, hopeful that prince has released his last album! I get more joy from rediscovering his back catalogue than from the new releases. There is another personal reason for my opinion however which is my problem so whatever will be will be.
If the milk turns out to be sour, I aint the kinda pussy to drink it!
