PRINCE 4EVER COMING ON VINYL

We’ve got some more Prince vinyl coming to stores this August, with pre-orders now up. 4Ever is the highlight, the greatest hits collection featuring “When Doves Cry,” “Let’s Go Crazy,” “Kiss,” “Little Red Corvette,” “Purple Rain,” “Raspberry Beret,” “Sign O’ The Times,” “Alphabet Street,” “Batdance,” and “Cream.” It’s a 4xLP set, with no other pressing info available at this time (priced at around $50).

The others are reissues of the RSD 2017 selections, which can be seen below:

The singles are coming out on August 11th, with 4Ever scheduled for August 25th.

I wonder what happened to the other albums that were supposed to be remastered and re released... It stopped at SOTT, and they cancelled LOVESEXY, BATMAN, D&P...

I am interested 2, but I agree...where did Lovesxy go?? I was totally looking forward to it (also I really wanted The Symbol Album and Come on LP...maybe one day...and while we're at it, how about Gold Experience on LP!!)

Still waiting on D&P & Black Album reissue as they are the only albums officially released on vinyl that I don't have. I get that BA is probably not happening, but come on with the D&P, WB!!

Have you listened to "What Time Is It?"?

A friend of mine picked it up and asked me to do a needle drop for him. Playing it back to back with the original pressing, the original sounds MUCH better.

That said, I still want it. I don't like the sound but it looks sweeeeet, and it's a cool collectible.

lleall

was there ever a reason given for the cancellation of the albums(Lovesexy, D&P, Symbol, Batman etc)?

I have many of the originals bought through record stores and discogs: some mint, others NM

Excited for 4ever on vinyl. Moonbeam levels will be cool.
Shame they aren't releasing the "deluxe" version of purple rain on wax.

This thread is about the upcoming PRINCE 4EVER ON VINYL...

Yes all those singles were releases, it was just a recap of the singles they were mentioning in addition to the main part of the thread which is about the PRINCE 4EVER ON VINYL, if you clicked the link and actually read it.

You fuckers can't be bothered to read two paragraphs, huh? It clearly states that these are reissues of the RSD versions.

What we need to know is if these are fake vinyl remasters (made from the horrendous digital masters) to surf on the vinyl interest resurgence, or if they're made from the original acetates.

To my ears, The Time - What Time Is It? RSD Exclusive, is from a "horrendous digital master".

I'm eager for someone (anyone) else to share their opinion.
