Black album

So, i found a used cd copy at a local store for 17.99 dollars. well, is it worth it? i think i remember everyone liking it. I usually don't ask these questions, i just take risks. I know its kind a rare too.

It's worth it at twice the Price if you dig the tunes. It's one of my faves, and long-considered Prince's funkiest.

There were a lot of these pressed, but they are now out of print.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

Maaan, some folks on this earth are just so damn lucky and they don't even realize it *shakes head* sigh

You're talking with a woman who ordered The Black Album from the nearest wrecka stow 2 years ago from now and she STILL didn't get it AND she's still waiting.

Was that convincing enough? sad Go get it, boo smile

They're going on EBay for under $20 right now. There's a glut, it seems. Watch for the counterfeits, though.

There are tons of bootleg black albums (infact it may be the most bootleged album of all time) so due to loss and damage the real ones are getting rarer by the day. I buy all the genuin ones I find now. I have it on CD and cassette, and if I ever found another real CD I'd buy it again for security.

Black is one of my all time favourite Prince records.

Didn't realise it was there, you can pick it up in stores in Britain pretty easily.

Reaaally? wow. U dont say! I know some ungrateful orgers who get sent free CDs and dont even bother 2 take time out 2 thank the peeps that spend time puttin em all 2gether (not 2 mention sending more).

Kinda laughable when these greedy-handed peeps then have the bare-faced cheek 2 ask 4 more without even saying a simple 'thanku'.

yeah: 'Maaan, some folks on this earth are just so damn lucky and they don't even realize it' *shakes head* sigh

The Brown Album AKA New Power Soul. Not worth much.
