MadeUpName said: I doubt that it'll happen. The recent "Another Lonely Christmas" post on Instagram triggered me 2 believe that The Estate still likes the 2017 PR Deluxe Edition, this part of the post: "“Another Lonely Christmas (Extended Version)" can also be found on the Purple Rain Deluxe Expanded Edition that was released in 2017."
I was like, "Oh! 2017 actually was not long ago, and we got that spanning PR remaster and deluxe edition, so The Estate is indicating in this Instagram post that we've got all the PR stuff that they want us 2 have."
Perhaps they will simply release the 2017 PR Deluxe Edition as a vinyl boxset, due 2 the ongoing strength of the vinyl format and because we didn't get a vinyl boxset of it in 2017.
From the leaks and posts that we've seen over the past couple years, I guess 2024 could see these releases: "Old Friends 4 Sale", "Crystal Ball", and SDE. But even that could be too much due 2 the weak sales of the D&P SDE and other re-release formats. We now know old friends for sale is coming out in February. I would think a record store day release of the symbol album will com this year too. I don’t think crystal ball vinyl would be released in the same year as a purple rain vinyl box set; since that is putting 2 expensive box sets against one another. 99.9% of everything I say is strictly for my own entertainment | |

Oh wonderful, maybe that delightful Happy Birthday Mr. Christian mini-movie will get a formal release! And the A6 album can be reissued with a Manic Monday bonus track. | |

Crystal Ball might just be a triple LP, doesn't have to be an expensive box. | |

I can wait for the 50th Anniversary, just throw everything else at me until then. That's eight or more SDE and maybe a live anthology set. That'd do me. I can certainly live without a Purple Rain 40th Anniversary set. | |
