Keep the Black Album for '94, we may need some extra choices there. Nothing on it stands a chance against the mighty Sign O The Times!

Black Album- 1994, to be consistent. Otherwise, songs from "Crystal Ball" should appear in the year they were recorded.

I agree. The more I think about that, the more I agree. I had originally placed The Black Album in 1994 (how it appears in my anal-retentive chronological Prince CD collection also), but then I thought about how Days Of Wild discusses the album on its aborted release date, and how copies leaked out at the time. I'm not including other leaked promos, however, like 51 Hours, so The Black Album will stay in 1994. I'll just be interested to see it play against Come.

no - include when it was officially released, 1994

Unfair to pit it against "SOTT" and logically, since we're only voting on official releases, include it with its official release date.

The Black Album should be in 1994. As other people have stated, we are only considering official releases, and therefore everything should appear on its official release date, not when it was first considered for release.
