Purple Rain NOW on shelves in Luxembourg

Hi guys!
I took some pictures of a very nice version of the Purple Rain album that I saw just today in Luxembourg. I already had the jewel-case version of this CD, but it was so cheap (only € 6,99) and I just had to purchase it! I was wondering... what if this turns out to be the long-awaited reissue of the album we keep on dreaming/talking about here?? biggrin It would be such a disappointment, what do you guys think?

Might be updated packaging to increase inventory of the original album, but that doesn't look anything like a reissue to me. Copyright date also still reads 1984.

That CAN'T be it.

Prince Plans 'Purple Rain' Reissue and New Studio Album

Deluxe version of classic LP would mark its 30th anniversary

http://www.spin.com/artic...dio-album/

"The Purple One and Warner Bros. Records have announced plans for a digitally remastered, deluxe reissue of the hallowed album."

Hardly anything "deluxe" about what's in the photos. Released with no advertisment, and only the original tracks.

Oh thank you! Can you name the other albums from this series? Are there any other Prince albums?
