They just posted on the official Prince-account that thursday will be the day https://m.facebook.com/st...4391157550

Watching everyone clown on the Estate for five minutes over the typo was funny, but thank you for posting this!! I have a free day Thursday so I can dedicate 24 hours to going crazy over the announcement in celebration

The sott Sde was good but the live show sounded terrible and lifeless and a lot of the essays and comments in that unnecessary book were well, unnecessary. The 1999 sde was packaged and selected better id say.

That Utrecht show needs audience mixed in...I wish someone would do this. it does sound lifeless despite being a pretty awesome show. You know he's hyped up....but it sounds like no one is responding.

That's really reassuring to see "Work That Fat" is getting a release. The Estate doesn't seem to want to censor songs containing explicit Lyrics and that's very good news. I guess there's hope to hear one day "Good Dick & A Job".

I truly doubt Prince would have been ok to release Work That Fat...it's so throwaway.

what if thursday comes and they release Daddy Pop 12" Mix as a teaser track along with a message stating that the full announcement will be announced in December and we need to stay tuned

Pray, Mr Tudahl is involved in the video...an it is a blu ray.

Howe and previous co. at least got two SDE's under their belt.

Let's wait for Londell & Spicer to have at least two SDE's before we start deeming one the villain and the other the savior, and that goes for either side of the argument.

Last I checked the new admin only released two tracks and one of them was left in mono. So we're batting 50% thus far. A lot of the Originals remixing and Phil Spector wall'O'reverb was lame too, but at least Michael Howe knew how to output to stereo...

I also don't see how this D&P tracklisting equates to "more Vault." Looks like about the same two discs of bonus material with tons of known tracks missing the previous admin was putting out already... There's a strong possibility/liklihood both versions of the Estate suck.

D&P SDE was already finished 2 years ago, so this could just be list of what Howe and Co put together.
The people at the Celebration already said that the tracks playd there were of better quality than what was released on the USB and on streaming (Lonny and Spicer explained partly why that was)
The CDR with all the 2023 Celebration tracks on it that a wellknown guy has has both of these tracks in proper quality so obviously these wee watered down intentionally (like Spicer explained and in the end he was right)

Look, I'm as sceptical to any upcoming release as I was with Howe and Co but they have shown they weren't up for the job. I'm waiting for the new Estate to release 3 SDE's before I criticise them. At least they said they wanted to do the things we asked for and are more transparent (very slightly) than Howe and co.

seriously, how is this shit still allowed to continue, even now?

who is doing this handing over? never mind who is doing the taking, we know that by now.

So if we get the audio for the Glam Slam gig, we won't get it on video : London or Sidney ? I don't complain, I'm just happy!

Just rumor, but I heard the Jan 27, 1992 show from Paisley Park would be the live audio show, with the Glam Slam show being the video.

if they don't release the rest of the celebration songs at some point this year it will be weird that all a share and 7 e flat got a release at all

lustmealways said:

Londell and Spicer have 72 hours grace.

If they deliver an SDE that goes beyond the others,, like they say they want, I'm in.

If they deliver a set that contains 12" mixes but doesn't include the likes of 'I Wonder' and 'Uh Huh; then more fool you. I'm just going to source downloads,

Anyone remember the boot that had Glam Slam ‘91 and Schoolyard on it? Was it called Yellow? Anyway… It also had The Grand Progression in awful quality. I was getting excited but didn’t realise The Grand Progression was a 1987 song more associated with Graffiti Bridge era. The grand wait continues. Some fantastic tunes coming by the look of it anyway.

I have (or had yellow) but I think they were on the 3cd Jewel Box... but maybe on yellow too?

And I don't think "The Grand Progression" was on YELLOW either. but it was on the Jewel Box...

It would be great if there was an announcement for the vault series on Thursday as well but I think it will happen later this year and release in December.

For the pre announcement of the pre annoucement, right?

Some additional entries. This long version of Diamonds and Pearls combined with Cream (take 2) suggests that there may be a 3rd Vault tracks disc!

They could fit onto a "Singles/B-sides" CD, no? As long as the 'Cream' and 'Gett Off' EPs have a separate CD, of course.
