the reason for this experiment...
A lovely friend of mine was in a wrekka stow that's going out of business. She saw a bin full of used Crystal Ball albums & just couldn't let them sit there. SO, she bought me 4 (and I already have 2!) for $.50 a piece!! Since I've already turned my one susceptible friend out, the Org was my next thought So here's the deal: those who don't have it & seem like they need it the most (based on what was said here) will get an Orgnote from me. I wish I had more to share but there's more "people without" than I bargained for, lol. HOWEVER, I'm planning a trip to that store & they may still have some. If they do, I'll pick some more up & get in touch w/ the rest of you. It's so cheap, it'd be a shame not to Thanks for sharing & I'm glad I'll be able to share w/ some of you!! It's a great album, no Prince fan should be without it | |

I started to see how much material Prince has floating around in his vault with that CD and The Truth kicks some serious ass too. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

I had it and decided to sell it because I found I didn't listen to it very much. I was so excited when I bought it, because I really wanted to hear all these great unreleased tracks and especially The Truth, but in all honesty, I was disappointed in the whole thing. Sure, there were a few good tracks on there, (your namesake and Good Love were two of them) but not enough to warrant me actually keeping it. Now, I must admit, after reading so many posts about how well people think it has aged over time, I have been wondering if I was a fool to get rid of it, and have been toying with the idea of picking it up again for another shot. I NEVER sold any album. Especially Prince albums. How could u? | |

But, really, is that good enough for you to move to Belgium? Hey I work in a library as an assistant. And I am responsible 4 the CDs. I buy 'em. I think not very much lib's do have 'Rainbow children' but we have it. (Btw. it's in Büdelsdorf/Germany) | |

I NEVER sold any album. Especially Prince albums. How could u? You've never sold any albums? Wow. Well, don't get me wrong -- I am a big fan of Prince (I do try to hear everything he puts out), but not so big to be a completist and to think that everything he puts out is gold. I really thought it had some good tracks on it, but like I said, not enough to actually warrant me keeping the album when I could trade it in and get something else that I might listen to more. There's so much great music out there, and like many people, I only have so much money to spend on such things. So it came down to "How much am I really going to listen to this, and is there something out there that I might listen to more?". Mind you, this was a few years ago, and after hearing how everyone says it's held up so well, it makes me wonder if I should go back and give it another listen! Take it easy, Clint | |

Kamasutra is nice music...play it in the back pretty often. If you like Xpectation, you like Kamasutra, even though it's more ballet like... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Calhoun, u are so considerate. God Bles You. Have it, only listen to cd#1. NEVER listened to the Truth. Listened to kamasutra once(a very memorable once at that). | |

Don't have it yet. It is one of my next CD's to buy. I'll make sure to get the 5 CD version. I still need to complete my collection. Someone said it was the least listened to Prince CD. Wouldn't that be Emancipation? | |
