Is there anywhere you can view the covers for albums like "Camille" or "The Dream Factory" or even the first "Crystal Ball"?


No? Oh well. Should be.

try www.guide2prince.org
they have most bootleg album covers.

I've never heard anything about a cover for CB.

As for official covers for DF and Camille, they are discussed in DMSR/Days Of Wild I think.

From memory, Camille was a stick figure with crosses for eyes, and DF was a collage.

Also Lovesexy had an alternative/early cover, the pic is circulating, but I've only seen it in small/mediocre quality. It's been posted here a few times I think, anyone got a link?

Was there otehr cover art work for too? My swiss-cheese brains vaguely recalls some talk of one.

The official covers for unreleased albums are not circulating,
but it is known what they would've looked like.

'Camille' was going to have a picture of a stick-man with X's for
eyes as the cover. It was all gonna be hand drawn like the cover
to 1999.

'Dream Factory' was going to have another hand drawn cover.
This time is was going to be a collage of pictures drawn by
Prince and each member of the Revolution.

'Crystal Ball' didn't get as far as having the cover made before
it was cut down to a double album, but from what I heard the
idea for the photo shoot for the SOTT cover is pretty close
to what was intended for 'Crystal Ball' anyway.

The original cover for 'Lovesexy' had a picture of Prince dressed
in the pale blue outfit he usually wore for the opening of the
second half of the Lovesexy show. It wasn't going to have any
writing on the cover because his outfit had 'Lovesexy' written
down the sleeve and 'Prince' written down the leg. This picture
is circulating (but it kinda looks a bit silly).

The original cover for the '' album was just going to be plain
black with the gold symbol in the middle. It was changed quite
late on to include a still from the '7' video behind the gold
symbol instead.

The original cover for 'Around The World In A Day' has been posted
here before. It can be found at http://www.jimwarren.com/prince.htm

Thanks for confirming the info Boris

Never saw that ATWIAD pic before, I can see how it evolved into what it became, VERY interesting.

Come one guys anyone post the Lovesexy cover?

I have it somewhere, I guess I'll have to dig it out.

thank goodness he went and did the nude pic instead of that...
