In my interview with Sharon Nelson, several members asked her what the next release from The Vault would be. Her response was for his fans to suggest two releases and they will try to comply.

So, here's your chance to effectively have a say in the next two releases of Prince's music or videos or whatever ...

So, c'mon Orgers ... list two!

[NOTE: Any questions about or regarding the Q&A will be deleted]

Prince's last P&M performance in Atlanta and the last studio track he recorded.

We alreaday got unreleased stuff from the 80s with the Purple Rain Deluxe release. I would like to see: A 21 nights in London compilation DVD/ Blue Ray including various main concerts, aftershows and unreleased footage. The latest record Prince was working on. I heard something about a Jazz album and/or a live release/ compilation of the Piano & Microphone tour including unreleased footage. Thank u.

+1 for 21 nights stuff, especially the aftershows.

1. Firstly you 'the estate' need to beat the bootleggers, by releasing of boxset of all the studio material currently bootlegged in pristine audio quality- - this would instantly make all bootlegs redundant.

2. then any unheard previously unreleased material can be released in a series.

1. Piano & Microphone Gala DVD with BOTH complete shows

2. Celebration 2002 DVD for all 7 shows

3. The Second Coming DVD

1. A boxset of 80s outtakes.

2. A tours boxset, one disc per tour.

Let me get in there. The Vault? It's exciting. It's different.

Hee, hee.

1. A DVD/download of the 1983 First Avenue show!

2. The album of songs that Prince was going to release before he decided to do Purple Rain...the mythical follow up to 1999.

1999/SoTT/Lovesexy Deluxe Expanded Edition

A Piano & Microphone Concert

I'd like to see some of the completed but unreleased albums released. Perhaps do like the Purple Rain extended edition and include both the complete album along with a second CD of some other tracks not part of an album (and extended versions), but from the same time period.

I do think it woudl be a mistake to start pulling songs from various completed albums and releasing them as Crystal Ball 2. That just diminishes the chances of ever getting the full albums configured the way they were intended.

I'd also love to see the IMAX movie filmed during the Act 2 tour relased on a HDR 4k Blu Ray.

Edit to add: maybe there coudl be a limited run release of this in the actual IMAX theaters.

2- Every song in the vault.

Had I listed specific albums instead of general concepts of how to do it, these are the exact two albums I was going to list.

1. Dream Factory (some sort of multi-disc set featuring all configurations and varying mixes of repeat songs, or just the final configuration and a second disc with leftover tracks that didn't make it past the previous configurations)

2. Another Crystal Ball compilation with unreleased 80's material (including "Extraloveable" and "Purple Music")

1. the infamous Small Club 19 August, 1988 aftershow on DVD/digital video download

2. DVD of a P&M show

From a Hardcore fan, Ms. Sharon, I DON'T WANT TO STREAM ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to BUY IT TO OWN IT!

So that it's mine and forever mine! Whatever the Estate releases, make sure you guys understand that off top!!!!!!!!!!!1

1. A DVD of the Piano & Microphone concerts (particularly the first show at Paisley Park on January 21, 2016)

2. In keeping with Prince's forward-looking attitude, I hope the estate will release the last album Prince & NPGQ completed, "Black Is The New Black." According to Adrian Crutchfield, the album was finished and ready to go. Blue Note was even being considered to release it. When Prince was asked in interviews which of his songs was his favorite, his reply was invariably the one he had just finished or "the next one". I think new fans deserve to know who Prince was in 2016, not just who he was from 1984-1991.
