EXCELLENT N.E.W.S

I am from the UK, and I was glad to get back from holiday 2 find News had arrived. (It got here in good time). My first impressions are that this is excellent, and I already much prefer it to TRC due to its sheer musicality and spirituality which it transmits.
The cover design is in itself worth the price, and is very innovative and is attractive to look at. I'd advise anyone who's d/led it to buy it just for the design, its cool! Plus i have to say the sound quality is superb. (the only nag being that international postage costs almost as much as the cd. The cd which at £7/$10 is very good value).
I would like to thank P and his band for producing this for us, and that I and others will always support you with this. I am very pleased the club is run like it is now as it is much more fair, and the high cost of the previous years stopped me from joining. It also gives P more freedom from contracts by not saying he will do a certain number of cds a year etc. Its much better to give members the option to buy (as you probably found most people have bought it, and if they havent they must!!!).
Overall I'm very satisfied..its so jazzy and funkay and has helped to take my mind off my gf and I being knocked over by a car and spending time in hospital before we returned from holiday. (I was unhurt, she hurt her leg but luckily its healing now!)
THANKS A LOT ONCE AGAIN!!!

Freaker I think that the artwork sucks. You have to bend the cardboard to close it and they spelled saxophone wrong (do they not have a spellchecker?). Eric must just think they are retarded.

No they actually spelled it wrong. They wrote "Saxaphone instead of "Saxophone". I don't see how this could be Princebonics.

No, it's you who is wrong I'm afraid. The word is "saxophone".

Thank you, Freaker for sharing your experience with N.E.W.S.! Looks like Prince's music continues to be a very positive force in the lives of fans that still appreciate his efforts.
