There are some people who get a kick out of pretending to be in the know, I wouldn't pay much attention to them, unless they back their information with some evidence, which is not the case here.

Nothing to add.....official words will give u the answers...soon!

I agree,they need to bring it on! Warners needs to stop delaying,post the tracklist and release date,and let us start pre-ordering this thing.There have been too many months with no official information.

It's times like these that makes me appreciate my bootleg collection. Waiting on this remaster is like waiting for Dr Dre's Detox album to be released. lol

Today would be a good day to drop some news.

Let's be honest, if the project is cancelled, it only makes it a more fitting tribute to Prince.

Oh look, more unsubstantiated BS, this time from someone who doesn't know the difference between accept and except.

A non-arsehole version of your reply would read something like 'I believe you mean accept rather than except; anyway, as of now there is no evidence to suggest that the re-issue has been postponed or cancelled, so it is better to just wait for official news'. It's not hard, Bart...

At the date of 2day >unfortunately...It is !! > FRIDAY is the password!

One such big project like that has to be announced officially (tracklist, artwork, price of the different editions, teaser, availability on amazon, etc.) at least 2 months before the release date.

And even with all of these conditions gathered, once the item on amazon, many long awaited release are often pushed back to another date.

That was the case of the boxet of the 3 Prince movies released on bluray last year.

Alternatively it can be put online for sale with no previous announcement, like some of the biggest albums in the last few years have done. I know this is different, and you are probably right, but we do not have any information at the moment. My guess is that it will be announced at some point this week, to coincide with the anniversary for maximum impact (poor taste, perhaps), but it is a guess. All we can do is speculate and guess right now. Or pretend we are in the know, as some people (not you) are doing.

VIA DR. FUNKENBERRY:

JUNE 16th is the official release date.

Thanx feeluupp, hopefully official channels like WB or Rolling Stone will confirm it. The tracklist and pre order availability would be snazzy too.

Finally the things 2 day are going in the good way ! > At WB OFFICE One day in bad way ...the other day in the good one....at this stage ....things will B Release in June but not the 9th or 16th!

Whether the release date is June 9th or June 16th,Warners need to start promoting this set...build up some hype and excitement! This set has the potential to be a big seller.Why don't they release a single now?!

well for the next day or two they have their thunder stolen by an illegal
release that managed to get onto itunes out of nowhere

if they want to get some free press in the next few days with the write
ups for the 21st they'd better release the tracklist or even better, put a
single out.

You mean the one that was announced for 4 Oct and released on 4 Oct?

I asked a person that has contacts in radio and movies and knows all the big promoters in the area and she did not even know about it. She sent me a message that said she had asked around and no one knows anything except what we know. 5 Discs and coming in June--maybe.

Don Batts talked about how "Baby I'm A Star" was such a great piano piece before they mucked it up on Purple Rain - that'd be nice to hear.

That would be interesting to hear considering Baby I'm A Star is my favourite Prince track. I guess I've been loving the 'mucked up' version all this time

It was my first go-to song on the soundtrack back then.

Love2thenines2003's posts are fun.

The tracklist has leaked.

Very true blue, very true.

We Can Fuck and Wonderful Ass? I mean how do the only two songs with swears in the title wind up on this as the first music most will hear from Prince's vault? It's cause Warner knows his stance on swearing and is flipping him the bird. Their animosity lives on even after he is gone.
