Hoax? No hoax! My local wrecka stow wrote to NPG Publishing and Prince's secretary sent them an advance copy.

You can be rude all you want, but I'm gonna play "How About Them Apples?" again, a deleted duet sung by Morris and Jerome. It's ooh la la ma cherie.

Yes, I'll try again then wink

It's just a joke born out of frustration, of course. I'm dying for these remasters & the hopefully extra unreleased tracks...!

I can't believe anybody in their right mind thought there was more than a 1% chance of this happening so quickly, and especially at the last minute with ZERO PROMOTION based on some chain in Europe that has what, 9 or 10 stores?

Nothing from Warners, nothing from Prince, nothing from any USA sorces, but your local London Hale-Bopp chain has all the breaking news. Actually, Hale-Bopp was the comet, right? I can't remember. But I had a good chuckle when somebody thought this Beyounce method of promotion would work for a 56 year old artist without a hit in ages. Or that Warners would just do this. Dang, how do you spell Beyounce?

Considering that Prince had been popping up to perform a concert on the day that a gig was being announced...an actual physical version of what Beyonce did, then anything was possible from him this year. I was surprised as anyone with the supposed release date notice, but there was a few weeks for Warners to get their act together. But nothing happened and it was incorrect. I spoke to the guys in the shop and they were informed of this release from the label and so they made the notice posters...hopefully this was Warners or someone being sneaky and seeing a reaction. Hopefully some news will appear soon.

Thread was totally reasonable, and appreciated. TBH i'll believe the actual remaster itself is happening when i'm holding it, not before.

That's the best way to go about it. Prince has taught us, that any project he's involved in, it's not set in stone, until it's actually happening.

November 4th is starting to look like another date for disappointment. :'( Doves won't be the only thing crying, if what I suspect won't happen on that date, actually won't happen.

Do u think that we have a little chance to see release a big box a la ARCHTUNG BABY U2 box set for the Purple rain reissue and for other remasters to come (1999-ATWIAD-PARADE-SOTT)....?..?

i think the whole hold up is just Plectrum Electrum and his solo album.

he obviously wants to release both of them before moving on to the PR

remaster.

.

but meanwhile things are as confusing as ever since it seems he can't

decide which project to release or promote first. unless he's planning

on releasing them together, which seems like yet another commercial

clusterfck.

.

the 3EG album really should have been released end of last year or at

latest first month of this year. then there would have been time for his

solo album right now. plus, all the promotion he was doing, and the UK

tour, plus appearances on Arsenio, he's not going to be able to invest

that much time in two separate projects now if PR needs to be released

in the late fall this year. the window on PE kinda closed already imho.

.

but the longer the confusion goes on (3EG tweeting about their album,

songs from it being performed live, yet snippets of his solo album are

being posted and listening parties for it are being hosted) the less time

there will be inbetween these releases and the purple rain remaster,

which i'm sure warners ain't too happy about.

.

my guess would be that warners would have liked to release the PR

remaster first and promote his other stuff later this year. but prince

is obviously gunning for the other projects first since he doesn't even

mention PR anymore or moans about people living in the past and

'why do they want to talk about that?'.

.

if nothing materialises in july, it's anybody's guess, i guess lol

and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

Purple Rain Deluxe ne sortira pas d'après certaines personnes bien renseigné de chez Warner.
Le deal serait parti en cacahuète. Espérons quand même un nouvel album

Purple Rain Deluxe will not be release , this is what has been said from some persons well informed at WB.
The deal would have gone up in smoke. Let's pray for a new album anyway

According to the folks on the French forum (later on the thread), this FunkyMusic guy isn't considered reliable and hasn't ever produced any "in the know" news that's been proven true so far, so let's hope he's just trollin'.

Nonetheless another member of this forum who, him, is considered reliable and "in the know", said that there r conflicts between prince and WB not over the remasters but over the new album(s): according to him this may indeed lead the whole deal to collapse if they don't find an agreement. No more details regarding the exact nature of the "conflicts", sorry.

Let's wait and see... but between ublic bashing and this, prince doesn't seem to be an easier business partner now than 20 years ago sad

If there's anyone who possible can screw this up then it's Prince, Wb won't do it, they will follow the deal and contract but the problem with Prince is that he never gets satisfied and can't make up his mind. I fear that if things goes wrong this time then it will hurt what's left of his career cuz the remasters might not be important to him, but definitely is for his hardcore fans. These remasters is what many of us have been waiting for

I heard from a source pretending to be in the know that WB would consider an Anthology for the 30 years of PR.....this is considered at thi stage as a work in progress (this is too a Rumour at this stage So....u know the rest) : This Anthology would be a BIG DELUXE PACKAGING with a memoralia Book + 10 cds ....this anthology would be centered around the remastered version of 4 Albums:

Dirty Mind

Controversy

1999

Purple Rain

....the remaining 6 ds = various unreleased stuff ( no details at this stage)

Take this wit a HUGE GRAIN of Salt!
