In that case it's not coming out. The timing has been pretty good maybe 4-5 times already this year. At least there is a physical pressing and plates that we can hope might be bootlegged.

^ I am a little confused.. what does "we are waiting for the timing to be perfect" mean?

1) More money, Prince is still asking the record company for a better deal?

or maybe

2) Prince wants us all to be more "excited" before releasing it?


What in heaven is he waiting for??

confuse question

Well, that requires vision, planning, etc.

Also one could have communicated more clearly about that plan.

Not to mention the fact that he's gone on record saying he didn't even realize PR was 30 years ago. Strange thing. He went from pooping out albums like he had album diarrhea to holding them back like he has album constipation. Oh well... I'm about to enter Prince rehab.

Prince is all over the accounting for Purple Rain, presumably thinking WB still owes him money for it. Believe me, he knows EXACTLY how old that album is (and indeed all WB albums).

Most likely, but if you want to avoid reminiscing and avoid a question, you could act like you didn't know.

celebration

Note the 'to celebrate the release of' wordings.

Then read this:

love2thenines2003 said:

"paisley Park Party" yesterday : Hannah Words

" There's still no release date for PlectrumElectrum , we are waiting the timing to be perfect" ...

And frown rightfully.

Because this is pure Prince.

No planning.

No communication.

No progress.

So even if stuff happened during this carefully planned release process he could have mentiuoned something about it.

Or at least projected a date far enough into the future, but that was too much of a challenge.

Yes you can say it was a genius at work that we cannot yet comprehend.

But that does not matter.

It's about the impression his cognitive decisionmakings leave upon us.

Complain all you want...

Yep. This shit is getting real tiresome. Must be the bummer of an album we expected if they keep delaying it for obvious improvements.

It would be nice to have a release date and a tracklist.

It does seem like it's time has passed and he has moved on with the release of fallinlove2nite.

fallinlove2nite is filler until the next thing.

But what will that be?

As far as we know he has no other project(s) at hand to release right now. (yes he has vaultloads of material but no album(s) that are almost finished bsides the 3RG one)

Or?

They had the vinyl all the way pressed for the Black Album. I think we know how that turned out. lol

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.
