There were computer screens set up at the 2000 Celebration at Paisley, which offered song titles that fans could vote for, to be included on a CB Vol. II set, however, the second volume never happened. . More info here http://www.princevault.co..._Volume_II

yeah woulda liked 2 have had "Others Here With Us" "Moonbean Levels" "All My Dreams" "Journey 2 The Centre Of The Heart" amongst others instead of those remixes however I do prefer the version of Pussy Control on there [Edited 5/23/13 9:37am] | |

Funny, I was listening to Crystal Ball (Disk 2) yesterday - hadn't heard it in a long time.
My faves are:
Crystal Ball Acknowledge me Hide the Bone Calhoun Square What's My Name Good Love Strays of the World Days of Wild PoomPoom She Gave Her Angels
With all the online drama surrounding this set, I was happy I went to the store and got mine. I was disappointed some of my favorite outtakes (Rebirth of the Flesh, I Wonder, A Place In Heaven, Computer Blue (Hallway speech, whatever you call that version), etc) weren't on it, but it was a pretty good set.
I felt so bad for the fans waiting for their online orders to arrive when it had been out in stores for weeks.

It's Prince's hate of us in cd form. He puts out shitty remixes and refuses to put out the best outtakes just to fuck with us and he sells it to us for 50 bux.
Where's Moonbeam Levels, Extraloveable, Big Tall Wall, Purple Music, Schoolyard, Old Friends 4 Sale, There's Other's Here With Us, Donna, Make It Through The Storm, Cosmic Day, Do Yourself A Favour?
Thank God the Truth saved it. All you others say Hell Yea!! ![]() | |

yeah ur right........i dnt understand why he dosent release them......because of his behaviour......the next generation wont even know of any of those songs...cuz the noose is getting tighter | |

Ha! Prince hates us in CD form!
Maybe not quite, I think he was just being shrewd - saving the aces up his sleeve for later use, no use blowing his wad when no one was around to notice (1998). But yeah with the horrible editing, needless remixes, half-filled CDs and mish-mash of eras it was less than expected - let's not even touch the rest of it, those wounds are supposed to be healed! | |

I always play this set straight thru. I really dig the whole project. | |

purple hippies have been defending him with that quote 4 years!.........by the time they get released...hell b dead (he actually sed so on The View sumthin like "im not releasing them...but sum1 will release them when im gone") and by then no 1 will give a fuck......most of the hardcore will be in nursing homes suffering from dementia......and those tapes will have rotted away | |

Yeah I agree, just going on what his thought process then could have been in not putting the goodies on CB. We'll see though. Things change, people change their minds - especially Prince!

I always 4ort it would have been better 4 him........2 release "the vault" songs in collections like part 1, 2, 3, 4,..etc a part each year in those newpaper giveaways......make a big event of it....instead of those shitty albums like 20ten and Planet Earth........his fan base would be fucking huge! | |

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't all the material fit on 2 CDs? (not including 'The Truth' and 'Kamasutra' of course).
Then, he packages his own version of a bootleg compilation, and gives it to us (with better sound of course).

a release like this was always gonna miss out on a lot of good material, he simply has too many good outtakes.
it was very weird, and disappointing to see about 6 songs on there that were simply (bad) remixes and that the discs weren't filled with songs, but had so much empty space on them.
the only way a prince outtakes release is going to work is if he decides to release an anthology type set where a set of, say, 3 discs, covers a particular period of his carreer. like 3 discs would cover roughly 3 or 4 albums.
he'd have to release about 5 sets of those 3 disc sets to cover most of the cherished stuff that we've been longing for so long. done like this, i wouldn't mind there being the occasional remix or alternat version or even bside in the mix.
but to include remixes and especially "how u wanna b done" on CB I, that was just an insult imo.

i am very happy with the crystal ball set though for the fact that it collects most of the stuff that didn't end up on either come or crystal ball. those are some great tracks.
and fcuz, it's very nice to have those 86 era tracks in good quality, eventho some of them have been mixed horribly, like moviestar with that jam of the year intro in the back and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

i'm not sure there is a difference actually. there might be, but since this set was released i haven't listened to the 'original' bootleg anymore.
