Prince RSD 2019: Versace Experience - April 13, 2019 What do you think?

I think it's a decent idea for Record Store Day. "I think people ought to know that we're anti-fascist, we're anti-violence, we're anti-racist and we're pro-creative. We're against ignorance." | |

The good news is that those Estate people are beginning to dig into P's discography and identify rare stuff. There's a lot of rare released and promo material in dire need of a wider availability. Regarding formats, I'm down with those funny vinyl-only or cassette-only releases for RSD as long as they're exclusive in those formats only for some time. After a while the material should be available digitally: it's 2019. For those who may be frustrated by the format, however, the Versace Experience cassette has been ripped by fans long ago, and can be found online quite easily. The Estate can also fight piracy by making the material available digitally.

As I said on February 19 : Information confirmed by a record store friend in France : THE VERSACE EXPERIENCE will be a purple audio cassette and HIS MAJESTY'S POP LIFE / THE PURPLE MIX CLUB will be the replica of the Japanese promo vinyl released in 1985, including the remix of Paisley Park. Available as part of the record store day of April 13th. [Edited 2/21/19 2:29am] | |

IDK if the Estate has the rights for this footage, but a nice promo for the Versace Experience on YT would be the December 95 VH1 Fashion Awards per4mence of P. Control [Edited 2/21/19 2:32am] A COMPREHENSIVE PRINCE DISCOGRAPHY (work in progress ^^): https://sites.google.com/...iscog/home | |

Can't say I'm too excited over either one of these. Edited versions and previously released extended versions of songs from 25+ years ago. Scraps. ![]() | |

A cassette? That is the dumbest idea ever. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I'm sure there must be cheaper cassette players. Anyway I doubt people will buy it to listen to it. It's more like a collector's item to put on a shelf. A COMPREHENSIVE PRINCE DISCOGRAPHY (work in progress ^^): https://sites.google.com/...iscog/home | |

Oh yeah, you can still buy a cassette player in a pawn shop. Maybe I'll do that (mine broke down years ago) and then I'll finally be able to listen to this tape and all those old bootleg tapes again. Because buying a recording and not being able to listen to it makes no sense to me. | |

The estate should consider putting some stuff out on wax cyllinder while they're at it. | |

id still like to see an official tracklist .. oh shoot i am realizing this is not the playtime boot but something less interesting .. oh well .. i thought we were getting something unreleased .. still a purple cassette is hard to resist even if gold is one of his shittier records (i'll take exodus or cnd over gold any day) | |

Too bad my Spanish is a bit rusty.... anyway, I wonder whether they will deliver as the idea of RSD is that you get it from an actual store and not online. | |

I still have a mini-boombox that plays cassettes & cds. I got it at target years ago. Also an old car with a factory installed cassette player. Shocking, I know. It recently ate my Parade cassette after years of great sounds but I forgive. "if you can't clap on the one, then don't clap at all" | |
