If we're lucky we might get a single before the end of the year They should release the 7 minute version of Superfunkycalifragisexy to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Black Album, but I don't think it will happen

it's kinda sad that the most we can expect is one single.

Meanwhile,we're hearing that Dr. Fink is auctioning off a huge collection of cassette tapes filled with rarities.

40th anniversary of Purple Rain and NOTHING. It's incredible, frankly

We still expect a physical release of "Purple Rain" in Dolby Atmos (not convinced* by the way) so who knows if something else is released (as the "D&P" SDE campaign).

*

As the latest version of Syracuse : I much prefer the remastered version by Bernie Grundman.

Waiting for the Lovesexy superdeluxe, until then...I don't really care, I mean if they release something good, I'll check it out but the Lovesexy era is my favorite.

Why not release Live In Dortmund 1988 Remastered like they did with Syracuse in 2022?

Can't see that happening anytime soon, but it definitely needs to be done. Both video and audio could be massively improved after all these years.

.

But given the chance, and if I'd have to choose, I'd much rather a Lovesexy show we haven't owned and seen a thousand times already.

I don't know if they have the multitrack for Dortmund 1988. A (good) remix would be cool. Maybe with a bit less reverb?

Yes, pretty please

In New Orleans.
Oops!
i read that as "next superbowl"
My bad.

At this point I wouldn't even mind straightforwawrd vinyl/CD releases of albums that never got a physical release. 20Ten (never physically released in the US, and the CD would need more than just the cardboard holder from the UK covermount version), Chocolate Invasion, Slaughterhouse, Xpectation, even The Very Best Of on vinyl. At least that would be SOMETHING.

Just my feelings nothing more..I have a pessimistic nature sometimes...maybe I'm fully wrong for sure...I'm not behind the scene about the Estate maybe things to come are already in the skillet..future will tell? Ps/ of course u can still dream for the best...u got this right...no problem it's cool 😎 [Edited 11/7/24 4:29am] [Edited 11/7/24 4:29am]

No worries, I think we all feel the frustration from time to time.

At the moment I could not care less about the current trainwreck of an Estate.

Hopefully they will proof me wrong next year, not counting on it though...

Just dig up some bootlegs and enjoy what's been released so far.

The old good days are dead now ( PR deluxe & 1999/SOTT/D&P SDEs) ...all is DEAD for good....did u understand ? I guess u know who are the new managers in charge of The Estate since 2022 ...don't u ??

Says the man who apologized to Londell McMillan at the time of the release of the D&P.

Even the former estate/ Sony stopped this reissues some years ago. That also is dead, despite these reissues being particularly cheap ( same artwork, same content, no transfert from the master tapes, no bonus tracks, not even one new text in the booklet, etc.).

I think it will happen again in the future, but it might take some time. This year, they should have reissued The Black Album since it's the 30th anniversary. Well, we’re used to missed opportunities by now

For me, 'the black album' is still 1987.
Butt, you're right, who gives a shit anymore?!
