Well said. There's no reason to be defending these clowns when they've been making ridiculously unprofessional blunders for over a year now. | |

You'd think they are looking to make a buck or two off of us. Which begs the question, why aren't they releasing more music?! I've got money to burn on Prince music and I'm not getting younger. When I die, that money is with my kids and they won't be buying Prince stuff. If the estate really wants to make money they need to release more stuff.

Well, it's really a missed opportunity if they don't release anything to celebrate Musicology. It also doesn't make any sense since they seem to focus a lot on the anniversary on social media. As I've said before, the lack of communication is frustrating. U are now an official member of the New Power Generation

All this musicology shit is so beyond stupid. If they want to celebrate it, that's great and it deserves it. But if they're gonna keep this up for WEEKS on twitter and instagram and not have even 1 or 2 vault tracks to go along with it, what's the point? they keep giving specific tracking dates for songs which is cool - release something! it's really insane, they'd buy at least a little goodwill and get a handfull of puff pieces in the media for doing the bare minimum and putting out a track or two to celebrate. | |

Most people here are saying this for the last 7 years !!! We're all mostly over 50, and have the money. If MakerMillions and his incapable Co were smart....... Hold on! I'm making a fallacy here... they're NOT. - Sorry for the impolite venting though. Just ... DO SOMETHING! RELEASE MORE ON A REGULAR BASIS : 4 times a year + surprise releases, PUHLEAZE!!!

Yeah. I agree with what's said above. I don't care who's running the Estate. Just do more for the fans & release more Vault music. We need it now not in 20 years from now. | |

. Why are you making up excuses for people who have spent decades in the music industry? They're not some hicks that suddenly found themselves having to run this, they injected themselves into this. Londell already got his pants pulled down with the first estate deal that the court laughed outta town, yet here he is back again. . | |

. The VEVO one is a "video", the other one is an audio upload (for use with YouTube Music). Tons of songs where there are multiple such uploads. | |

. Who knows? Infighting? Incompetence? Legalities? Just look at how long it took them to get the D&P SDE circus on the road, and that barely involved any effort from them. . I cannot imagine what would prevent them from releasing more than one previously released B-Side. At the very least compile an "EP" with all relevant B-Sides and remixes etc. Or even better: compile an expanded release of the original album, i.e. the album remastered plus related tracks plus perhaps a handful of outtakes. Or perhaps go the "SDE lite" way, with a whole bunch of outtakes plus a concert video but perhaps not a 12" lavish package but more something like the 1999 SDE packaging. Announce that at the start of the year, and release it in time for the anniversary, so Sony has their release for the year. . And then set up the PR SDE for later in the year. Is late June too soon after a Musicology (S)DE in late March? Then perhaps do the PR SDE in August or so. And go nuts with that one. . Instead of whatever this is... A re-release of an old B-Side, but in a different mix (which is never mentioned in any promo material), a bunch of tweets with some recording details regarding some album tracks, but otherwise nothing concrete. At least the previous regime at the estate managed to produce vinyl singles for such releases. . I'm bracing myself for the PR SDE. I bet it will be underwhelming, I bet it will contain numerous easily spotted mistakes and technical faults. | |

I'd definitely prefer several lighter releases than a mammoth one that will take them a massive effort to put together as it turns out to be. | |

we shouldn't have to settle for so little. it's absurd how minimal their communication is. | |

I wasn't aware they had already managed a major artist's estate posthumously nor that there was a manual that applies to all artists. My bad. | |

Well said. I happen to agree but that is only my uneducated opinion. I don't know everything that goes into the decision-making. Do they owe me an explanation? No. They don't even owe me any more music since Prince didn't make provisions for it. I make my voice heard with the dollars I do or don't spend. I suppose that means I'm not as diehard as some fans because I don't feel the need to act or speak out when things aren't going the way I'd like with the estate. No matter how I feel I wouldn't call them out of their names though. That's getting personal. | |

Why does the musicology merch have prince written in the sott font? | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
The quality standards on the graphic front were long gone by then. I always found that twisted SOTT lettering for the merch cheap as fuck. As something you'd have expected at the parking of the concert sold by bootleggers. | |

so if you saw prince in 2004, that is the merch you would have been presented with? (he only toured the US at this point, so i never saw the tour) | |

Yes, that design was "official" merch back then | |

(he only toured the US at this point, so i never saw the tour) The merch from that tour was designed to honor multiple eras as it was represented as a sort of 'comeback' tour. The shirt I have has the outline of the '1999' album's Prince logo in yellow on purple fabric. | |
