I'm only interested in CD 3&4. I have to spend an arm and a leg for those two. Dang it.

No Extra Loveable! No fucking Extra Loveable!!! Arrgggghhhh

They literally didn't include the TWO BEST songs from that era... Extra Loveable and Lust U Always.

Fucking heartbroken. All I want is that fucking guitar solo from EL in good quality.

Aren't these the two songs which include the "rape" reference? Probably the reason why they are not included...

Depending on the source, just drop the vocals at that part. It's not rocket science.

Unless it is, and that's not possible. It's just silly in this day and age to not clean that up if you can.

Ok this is great BUT... It is absolutely unexcuseable to NOT include EXTRALOVEABLE on the 1999 Deluxe.

But I guess the estate doesn't want any drama with the RAPE lyrics in this day and age especially with the Me Too movement going on.

.

Do you know what? Fuck it! I know I'm about to say something controversial and I can't believe I'm saying it. Right now, I'd take a censord version!

.
I know this would upset a ton of people, and I agree it's not ideal, but the thought of that amazing track never seeing the light of day because of what is essentially a ridiculous ad lib is just a transitivity.

.

I know I should be celebrating along with everyone else right now. I’m so pleased to see ‘Do yourself a favour’ on there and Moonbeam is getting a remaster, but I’m just so bummed out by this.

Agreed. But, from what I've read in the last few minutes, it's most likely the reason they were excluded. But you're absoluteley correct...

Does the musictap site not work for anyone else?

well that fucking blows.

Why masturbation when you have CD3&4 of 1999 deluxe?

TAKE MY MONEY NOW!!!!

That's all I can say.

For Mega Completists, though, besides LUST U ALWAYS and EXTRALOVABLE there are two other

1999 era "Vault" tracks missing:

FOX TRAP, and

U SHOULD BE MINE

But my heavens...

...a COMPLETE If It'll Make U Happy????!!!!

I am in heaven!!!

I mean, the rest of the set is pretty impressive- can't say I'm not excited for the full-quality versions of stuff like Purple Music and Do Yourself a Favor.

I can totally live without Extraloveable when we're getting a full If It’ll Make U Happy, TURN IT UP, and Feel U Up/Irrestiable Bitch.

This release means so much moving forward. What a great fucking day mannnnn.

I've heard the Masonic Lodge Detroit Nov 30th, 1982 show...

Straight from the board, un-mastered, IT FREAKIN' KILLS!!!!

Fantastic $^&@#^#^#^#@ performance - it's going to BLOW U AWAY!!!!

Disagree with Extra Loveable.

.

However you are right about what this means moving forward. It means that Warner Bros are committed to remastering Prince’s most important albums, that they are willing to chance larger box sets, and they are not constricting themselves to one Prince release a year. All of which are positive.

Your logic: what happened in the past MUST happen in the future. Do you even know how dumb this sounds? Answer this question first before you do anything else. I can already tell you like to deflect.

Hey, cut the chitchat and let s make a deal : if 1999 deluxe is released this year, I will disappear from the org eternally. . If it's not released this year, you go. . Deal? .

This here. It's just beautiful. You've got a deal.

Why the bullshit edits again? Didn't we complain enough about the PR Deluxe inclusion? Jeez...

That's a hell of a point. Why do we need the audio for the video version of "Let's Pretend We're Married"? Most people don't even know there was a video. The mono version of "1999"? Cut it out. There's enough stuff there, previously discussed exclusions nonwithstanding.

While I'm excited for this release, i find it MADDENING that Extraloveable and Lust U Always are not included. Goddammit...

It does but it seems to be having issues. I had viewed the page previously with no issues. I think the org crashed it

I just hope Nik Bolas had something to do with the 1999 remaster. That is the one I"m looking forward to most...as well as some of the vault stuff.
I think i have a soundboard of the 1982 show and i'm pretty sure i've had the Houston video forever. Still, it will be realy neat to see if they are able to clean it up well.
