In regard to whether I'd feel 'double dipped' depends on the volume of new content and the price point. Of course we all agree the 1999 approach is superior, but does it justify the three times price jump? . | |

It would be fine with me, and I would buy it tomorrow. | |

At this point you already boxed all the songs and the mixes etc... The thing I am looking for are what the others did in Purple Rain, at this point things like the Time, Apollonia 6, Jill and also Vanity 6, all this stuff being out of print and outdated and never ever touched seems like a big waste to me. I mean I know its not going to gain fans, but I am pretty sure a good portion of the loyal followers would buy a remastered Apollonia 6 or Jill Jones in a second.

Depends on how it's done
I don't think it's double dipping.

CD2 PR including all songs in their non truncated form, Darling Nikki, Beautiful Ones, etc, all had extra verses. CD3-5 Vault material recorded during that time CD6-8 Prince vocal version of Apollonia 6, Ice Cream Castle and The Glamorous Life albums. CD9 Remastered First Avenue benefit concert DVD/BluRay - Video of benefit concert
10 discs total, very doable considering the scope of that time period. [Edited 12/3/19 11:04am] "You always get the dream that you deserve, from what you value the most" -Prince 2013 | |

Yes, b/c the remaster from 2017 was terrible and too many vault tracks were badly sourced. | |

Shit, I'd buy it just for a proper remaster of the album. Anything else is gravy. | |

It's too soon now, but there will no doubt be one in a few years. . The reissue was hardly definitive or exhaustive, and it's not like any other artist only has one reissue per album. Expect another 1999 even in the future, why not. | |

I'd be okay with if and I would certainly buy it,but let's do the other albums first | |

I do wonder how many attempts before the org concedes the original CDs sounded fine in the first place. [Edited 12/4/19 12:40pm] | |

PR is undoutedly one of his best albums, if not THE best, but it's also the one I play the least. | |

does Howe know the unreleased PR era songs Prince played for Morris Hayes?? | |

Wait 5 years and do a proper 40th Anniversary Super Deluxe package. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
That doesn't exist. The "7" B-Side Edit" thing was just a error.
Also, the 7" mix of Erotic City did HAVE the "Make Love Not War..." subtitle, but it was ignored cause they used The Hits/B-Sides for reference. It could happen to Escape, or other B-sides with the same issue. | |

Definitely double dipping. I have know interest. I'd prefer a new album of unreleased material particular songs that didn't make the cut on his 78 thru 96 releases | |

I'd purchase PR again only if the packaging is on par with 1999 Super Deluxe. Also include Dez's 'Modernaire', Appolonia 6, and the Time's music as they appeared in the movie. As additional bonus material for the BOX, I'd like to see the 2 disc Anniversary version of the movie included with music videos, concerts, etc. Extended liner notes and more photos are also a must!

Modernaire, perhaps. For TT and A6 I still hope for a remaster with bonus tracks one day... Also, the 1983 Time show was released by Wolfgangsvault some years back. WB could reclaim it. A COMPREHENSIVE PRINCE DISCOGRAPHY (work in progress ^^): https://sites.google.com/...iscog/home | |

I’d be happy to buy a Super Deluxe PR at some stage, but I’d much rather the Estate cycle through the other albums from his classic period first. Maybe in 2024 for the 40th anniversary. Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018! Let'a celebrate his legacy by counting down the most beloved Prince albums, as decided by you! | |

I'm sure there will be another, more "complete" version down the line...but I'm not in any hurry for it. Prince has so many albums that are better than PR that need a "Super Deluxe" treatment first. ![]() Do not hurry yourself in your spirit to become offended, for the taking of offense is what rests in the bosom of the stupid ones.

. I just hope that the cd (and cd players) will stay in existance for the upcoming 10 years, so we can have the super deluxes in cd format of the most important albums. Yes, I know, cd is old-fashioned, but hey, I grew up in the 80s and have witnessed the transition from LP to cd. The latter sounded much better to me in those days, especially with headphones. Streaming is OK, but it is just nice to have something physical, with booklets and stuff. So, with a super deluxe version on cd/dvd each year, we could have For You to Lovesexy before 2030 🤓 . . | |
