Originals Vol 2 or another SDE? I’d take either right now. I feel like i never been this long with a Prince drought. They need to hurry up. Would’ve posted on the estate thread but it was expired. | |

Anything previously unreleased I'm up for. | |

. It they worked on those recordings in the context of a D&P SDE, then I guess it's not very likely they will release them as a standalone project (?). | |

They anticipated fanbase fervency for Diamonds and Pearls superdeluxe to coalesce over months and months of watercooler hype until all estate and record label social media accounts would be hounded and eventually overtaken by zealous Prince fans demanding a release date.

I am always thinking of this...the whole D&P SDE plan seems to have just gone away. Surely it is due to the changes in ownership and control happening with the estate. Yet, the Purple Rain Syracuse set came out.....so not sure what to think yet.
I do hope something is being quietly planned. I can't see how a 2nd Originals set would be terribly hard to release. I do hope that continues...maybe one offs that can't be part of a SDE release (e.g. So Strong by Dale Bozzio).
I have to think the ommision of any Mavis Staples or Jill Jones songs on the SOTT set is b/c there is a plan to release some of those gems (Come Home, Violet Blue etc). However, if the thought of a SDE is too much, why can't the Estate just put out a remastered Madhouse 8 album...or maybe a package Madhouse 8 & 16? Maybe, add Madhouse 24 and make it a package. Whatever, I do think there are people out there ready to buy remasters...one offs... Not every Prince album will get the SDE treatment. So, start with the one offs.
Many hardcores like me will never buy the re-releases of his albums as we have them already. If you remaster them, I'll buy all of them all over again. Many will. Once I realized The Time (Debut) was reamstered, I bought it right away off of HD Tracks. I would have bought a physical release in a heartbeat. | |

It would be better than nothing. I think Originals was a good release I just wish they had stuck to a smaller time frame to make a more cohesive listening experience. I would prefer however A SDE including his versions of songs. Something BIG Is Coming. | |

Y'all are so impatient sometimes. Remember when we were about 200 songs down prior to the estate giving you a dozen albums worth of unreleased material? This isn't much of a drought, kids. | |

True. | |

Depends on the SDE. If it's Diamonds & Pearls, I'd rather have another Originals (especially if "G-Spot" is on the next one). If it's something like Parade, I'll take the SDE. | |

. Weird... I feel that the problem with Originals is that they again focused on just the Purple Rain era (or adjacent). The only exception, Love Thy Will Be Done, is immediately one of the most interesting tracks on the album. . Personally, I would keep releasing originals for all those tracks that are one-offs on albums with little Prince input and release deluxe versions of all protege albums with an extra disc of Prince versions of all the songs. (please do Time Waits For No One first!) . But it probably won't happen, as most of those involved would fight against it, I think, as it would contradict their stories of their involvement...

I didnt love the format of the Originals but I'd prefer that over an SDE of D&P. | |

Super deluxe whether parade or D&P would be great. Because you get a lot more music released. I still would like complete albums shelved by Prince released. The ones in the Mid 80’s and early 90’s. [Edited 8/23/22 17:53pm] 99.9% of everything I say is strictly for my own entertainment | |

SDE all the way. Could easily live without any more originals. "Man, the living creature, the creating individual, is always more important than any established style or system" - Bruce Lee | |

Was it ever confirmed by Howe or who ever if a Volume 2 of Originals was an option or something they would be intereted in doing? | |

Impossible! Outrageous demand! They handle all Prince news and shit as if the secrecy of it is far more important than Trump stealing official documents.

I want another SDE! They were doing so well with the previous ones,then they just stopped. | |

They're just waiting for the prices of oil/raw materials to rise on an international level, so they can ask double of a normal price for a SDE. Or waiting for the next year's crisis to blame.

Either, this estate is asleep at the switch or got their money and don't give a damn. | |

Perhaps they listening to us and are setting up their own streaming platform so we can listen to whatever we want when we want? Nah that’s too good to be true | |

When was actually the last time Michael Howe spoke in public about the then latest Prince news (of any kind)? "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves. And wiser people so full of doubts" (Bertrand Russell 1872-1972) | |
