I can all too clearly.

take my money

although this also needs 'empty room' and 'call of the wild'.

Just need this really http://1986boxset.blogspot.com/

I'd take anything at this point. I've got money, I want to spend it, but I don't want candles and slippers. Just release music!

You forgot the extended versions of "Kiss" (an unreleased one exists, too), "Mountains" & "Anotherloverholenyohead"

The Prince "everything's off the table" estate sucks ass so I have zero hope for anything remarkable from now on. The people now in control haven't a clue how to properly handle his catalog.

This release will be more underwhelming than people think, I think.

There's the acoustic demo of kiss too.

I don't know, maybe. But I can't think of any other SDE before this one is released.
I want those extra songs and also those known songs in super remasterd quality, to
add to all the other tracks from 1985/1987 we have now to make one massive wild
super fantastic playlist that I can put on shuffle and be in music heaven all day

Until I bust that nut in the car, I won't be able to think about playin' guitar, so to speak

waittttt a minute

for this album you need the versions of the songs without the strings

and then also, songs like little girl wendys parade and so on

and alt versions like the demo of kiss on guitar

The previous curator (Michael Howe) shied away from releasing works-in-progress. He only wanted to releases songs that we final. So he might not have wanted to release the Parade songs minus strings. But maybe I'm wrong. And maybe the new curator will have a different philosophy.

Still, the song Little Girl Wendy's Parade obviously needs to be included.

Yer killing me. This is the stuff I want so badly from Prince. This was my fan era...but I just don't have any faith it's going to happen in my lifetime. I guess thank god for bootlegs.

I guess a stupid question.... was this an actual boot one could theoretically purchae at some point? Or a fantasy boxset someone made up?

How this???

I would rather all of "The Flesh" tracks be on one cd (you did single that out but Run Amok, Most Strongest Whiskey, U Gotta Shake Something and few others were also part of those sessions).

Would love to see the the b-sides included with remixes on another and the remaining unreleased tracks (don't forget "Empty Room") filling out the set...oh...and definitely include the Clare Fischer treatments that were not on the original (i.e. "New Position" with strings which is already out there but not officially).

Live show-wise, I like your choices. Would be amazing to have the Detroit show in-full.

You don't know that. You have nooooo idea what the new estate is planning one way or another. Nobody does and I don't rly care about that one quote from Sharon about what is or isn't off the table.

indeed. sharon is not the be all and end all of new releases. besides, she can change her mind too.
might be she heard some great stuff by now that she would like to see released. instead sony and
whatever other company might be like 'no sharon, i'm sure you'd be happy to give the fans those
10 unreleased albums from 2000-2010 in a fan friendly priced boxset but we are not going to do
that we're going to release D&P SDE with 20 vinyls and a hologram for $ 800,-'

just saying, we don't know nothing.
