What an amazing item. The Black Album promo cassette tape is really nice too. Some of the prices seem rather ambitious though, for example the tour books.

There are bootlegs in the cd collection. I spied the Yellow boot. | |

I wonder whose collection this is? There's also a Rusan cloud in there. | |

This wasn't from Purple Rain? Right?
I remember buying one online from NPGstore.
It was disappointing because it looked cheap and had a sticker slapped on it. [Edited 12/21/21 18:50pm] | |

Why doesn't the Estate release this? Oh... Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

It´s not really a Rusan Cloud. " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

They were owned by Prince. At some point in the late 90s he asked fans to send him their bootlegs. He was also seen at record stores looking for bootlegs.

So presumably these test pressings would be mixed / mastered evenly across the whole album, right? It's tough trying to re-create the Camille album from the released tracks as they're all mastered differently depending on what release they came from - i.e. different volumes, equalizations, etc. It always sounds a bit stitched-together and not smooth like a properly mastered album would.

Camille was a brilliant concept and album - this is one piece of memorabilia I would LOVE to own. Be amazing to hear this album as sequenced, mastered and finished by Prince. The Music on it is incredible and the concept is really progressive (for the time) and really interesting. Prince at his ultimate best. | |

. NO THEY WERE NOT OWNED BY PRINCE. . These are, like some of the other items in this auction, obviously owned BY A FAN (and in some of the other items this is also said). © Bart Van Hemelen

Because all tracks on it are already officially released. It would be great to sell it as a RSD release. | |

It´s not really a Rusan Cloud. The history of the Cloud and it's replicas/copies is listed somewhere but I can't find it. These 12 were not handmade by Dave Rusan but another luthier who worked under him, if I understand the description. So while that might not be a direct Rusan cloud, it's as close as most people would get unless they had $10k on hand for a commission. | |

. Released yes, but on various discs and one single release would 'fix' this. Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

To reassemble this album, you will need: -Sign o’ the Times Super Deluxe (For “Rebirth of the Flesh”, “Housequake”, “If I Was Your Girlfriend”, “Strange Relationship”, and “Shockadelica” -The “Partyman” 12’ Single (For “Feel U Up”) -The “Bright Lights, Big City” Soundtrack (For “Good Love”) -The Black Album (For “Rockhard in a Funky Place”) Three of these are not easily available (the latter three) or are expensive to own (SOTTSD, Black Album), and two of these (“Partyman” single and “The Black Album”) are not on streaming sites. So assembling this album is quite difficult. |

And the version of “If I Was Your Girlfriend” on Camille doesn’t include the “Wedding March” intro as well. |

That version is on hits 2. Feel U Up is on hits 3, all streaming.
The rest is on YouTube. It's not "quite difficult" to assemble. |

So assembling this album is quite difficult. None of the 'Rebirth of the Flesh' versions on the 3 different 'Camille' presings/sequences have been released officially so it's not possible to make any of these sequences ourselves. And the mixes of the tracks on all three versuons of the album are different and the some or most tracks have different edits that are also still not released. They should just press this album on an vinyl and CD for RSD or whatever so we can finally have it. |
