I've been getting back to this album recently and it jams. I have a better love for Daddy Pop. My favorite tracks are Cream and Money Don't Matter. What tracks would you use to make a homemade deluxe edition? I would put Horny Pony as a bonus and the longer version of Thunder as well. Could anyone else give me more ideas on what to use?

Cool idea! I'd include the tracks you guys mentioned plus the video version of Willing and Able for sure. You could also pick out your favorites from the remix EPs from that album too.

I doubt they will skip it. I think it was his 2nd best selling album.

The most obvious deluxe edition,the album plus all the singles. Theres easily a two hours there.

Such a set should most definitely include a DVD with both the Diamonds And Pearls Video Collection (already released as a DVD) AND the Gett Off Video Maxi-Single (only released on VHS & LD).

Good Dick And A Job would seal the deal.

One change that I would like to see with the D&P Video Collection is the credits. Seriously, why are the credits rolling at the end of that awesome Live 4 Love guitar solo?! I would like to see the credits start rolling after the guitar solo ends. Put the credits over some highlights from the video collection instead of over the L4L guitar solo.

I think the OP is talking about a "Homemade Deluxe Edition", from the infamous bootleg series of the same name, not WB's "Deluxe".
But I could be plain wrong.

— track 14 is a 0'47'' prank phone call by Prince to a woman, which starts with "Hello, have you heard the single 'Cream'?". I have no idea where it comes from, maybe some 7th Dan Jedi can enlighten us.

Liners :

Okay, you asked for it, and here it is, the last Homemade Deluxe Edition of Prince's main albums. Diamonds and Pearls was kind of a return to form, scoring hit singles, videos and assless pants, while also earning him a big contract to resign with Warner Bros. Records. The less we talk about that though, the better.
The real story here is that this is clearly not a solo album, primarily because of songs like Strollin', Walk Don't Walk and Willing and Able. None of those songs would likely sound right on a traditional Prince album, showing a different kind of soul or blues influenced vibe than he ever showed before or after.
There is also the annoying presence of Tony M. and the Game Boyz as they try to become professional rappers of some sort, all despite being nothing more than average. As someone that loves hip-hop, the music here is wonderful but Tony's raps feel like an embarressment. On the other hand, everything Rosie touches turns to gold, and that includes her own raps and obvious contributions to the songwriting, whether those contributions receive full credits or not. There is also some vague political commentary in tracks like Money Don't Matter 2 Night, the fighter-pilot fantasy, Live 4 Love, and the rolling mistake that is Jughead, a "rap" track that got Prince sued by his former manager, Steve Fargnoli, for apparently breaking a non-disclosure agreement. What would a Prince album be without solo tracks like the operatic Thunder or the invitation to freak that is Insatiable. It's a pretty damn great album, albeit a strange one.

For this version, we're presenting you with three discs worth of ephemera.

The first disc is a vinyl rip of the main album, contributed by the wonderful DJ Polished Solid! Apart from some declicking, I also normalized the volume on each side of the album before seperating the tracks into their individual pieces. Otherwise, no further processing or tweaking was performed.

The second disc consists outtakes, b-sides and obscurities.
The outtakes and early versions were contributed by Link343 who did all the work on making them sound as wonderful as they do.
The Thunder Ballet was taken from the 30 Years Of Funk collection,
Gett Off from T's 12" Archive,
Call The Law from The NPG's Gold Nigga and
Horny Pony from the Gett Off single.

Regarding the third disc, all officially released tracks were taken from their respective releases,
Willing and Able and the remix of Gangster Glam are from 30 Years Of Funk and
the Thrust Mix of Gett Off is from T's 12" Archive.
The only work done to those tracks was some normalization. I don't use compression and I never max out the volume, always leaving it at least a quarter of a decibel below the max, so there is no clipping and everything sounds nice and clear.

Now that we've got these out of the way, at some point in the near future I will be reposting all of the Prince albums that I've posted Homemade Deluxe Editions of so far and I'll also start work on some of the side-project releases. A very good friend said they might have a copy of The Family album for me to rip in the near future!

Peace, Love and Thanks to everyone who has downloaded, enjoyed, contributed to and in general had anything to do with these releases. You know who you are! Again, thank you!

The prank phone call is from the "Cream" 12" single. There are 2 prank calls on the single.

Violet's the shit. Essential to get a slice of P's psyche.
It's kinda gloomy, too. Was it the fist time we saw the cop hat with the chains?
He went through a SM period of some kind...

The guitar breaks on Call The Law... D&P was a great return to form.
It's no Parade for sure, but it's a full american record, in the good sense.
Over the top, societal, religious, stoopid and crooner, heavy-metal and arabic, which is no small feat with the Gulf War so close. Of course Live 4 Love is a masterpiece, but it has to be on 11 to consider it so. Michael B. and Sonny show off the fantastic years to come with the NPG.

It has aged in parts, but not that much.

And one day, "Dead On It" and "Jughead" will have their reputation cleansed: just because a specific side of Prince doesn't speak to you, doesn't mean it's not a great work. Or a funny one.
or a Dance commercial take #101.

Yeah this is most probably what it would look like if WB did in my opinion, although they'd probably add the Diamonds & Pearls video collection as Disc 4 along with a live performance from the era on disc 5

All you have to do now is brickwall it to sh*t, and it'd be a perfect package

Now don't you give'em no ideas.

Thinking about it, The Gold Experience is the most perfect brickwalling of all times.
You have to listen to it on "neutral". TGE sounds like it's blasting from a giant boombox.
The Love Symbol as well, it's just compressors and EQ, it's nuts.
Reverbs and delays are only there to adorn.

A real Deluxe package would include the side projects. We need Goldnigga and Carmen Electra.

I was wondering the same thing about the appearance of the Tora Tora alter ego. It may very well be the first appearance because many of the photos of P as Tora Tora are from 92 to 95, but VTOG is from 91.
