Blast From The Past 9.0

Has any one listened to this yet? Looks like a rehash of old stuff. Was wondering if anything is updated in quality.
Looks like at be a pain in the ass to compare quality to other releases


Copy and pasted this from al old thread

***NO SOLICITING FOR BOOTLEGS! Discussion is fine, so long as the bootleg is not being promoted e.g. pre-release; requests/offers to share or copy, and links to download or bootleg sites are not. Posting Prince and associated artist videos from sites such as YouTube is also not allowed. Posts of this nature will be deleted and repeat offenders will be first warned, and then banned.***

Thanks for the heads up.

I noticed Goldnigga Full Length listed here. Wasn't that one confirmed to be a fan edit?

The diamonds and love flacs that came with it sound a whole hell of a lot better than the MP3’s I had.

The lossless .flac filed leaked this past December.

Those sounded way better than the MP3s.

Knowing the BFTP crew, they probably also EQ'd the shit out of everything.

Maybe that's all they did? Seems like the ultimate rehash of all rehashes. It looks like all of it is stuff we've had for awhile. Most of it a loooong while. wink

I think "Prince Humming A Tune #1 & 2" are new to me lol I feel like a few of the 78 instruments are too. But the quality is so bad. I'll never listen to these. I'll toss them in with the rest of my collection

These may have leaked elsewhere already, but two of the songs are new to me.
"Tell Me How U Want 2 B Done (Extended Remix)" seems to be from a lossy source and might be fan-made. However, the section from 4:04 to 4:36 couldn't have been made with just a simple cut-and-paste. Can anyone tell if it's fan-made or not?
As for "The Big Pump (George Clinton 1990 Version)", I've never heard this version before.
I'm not super excited about either of them, though...

Sound-quality-wise, I didn't notice any improvement from the existing sources except for "The Grand Progression," which has more emphasized vocals in the mix. I guess it was done with the help of recent vocal demixing technology.

.

correction: Vocal emphasis of "The Grand Progression" was found on "30 Years Of Unreleased Funk Vol. 2" and "Work It Volume 3", so it wasn't new.

The Ganster Glam remixes were better quality than the ones I had, or, if I do have this quality already, they slipped by me and I didn't notice.

I don't know this edit of Turn Up. Is it legit or a fan mix?

I can't be bothered comparing any of the boombox recordings because I don't listen to those.

Other than that, complete rehash for me.

"Turn up" is a fan-made. You can find it "Turn Up - Prince Vocal Mix (99PROBLEM5)" on YouTube. It' a nice mix.

"Gangster Glam" remixes are included on "30 Years Of Unreleased Funk Vol. 2" in the same quality, along with three additional remixes.

When i seen BFTP 9.0 days ago.
I intently thought "Unbeknownst 2 u" might have been on it doh!
Then I seen the set list. A bit confused, looks like a bunch of rehash, and fan made mixes? Why...
Also isn't "Madrid (edit) a fan edit.

Just venting smile

Cool, thanks! I have that one, must not have noticed the quality upgrade at the time.
Thanks for confirming my suspicions by answering my question on Turn Up as well.

This is exhausting.

Fanmade or not fanmade? Rehash or not rehash?

Damn... I think I won't even bother to look for a d/l unless someone confirms something genuine is truly exclusive to this set...

I never thought there'd be something new once the tracklist was revealed. But by the look of it I must be one of the very few who enjoy collecting the Eye releases lol
