I would:

1) Rerecord "Dirty Mind" without Prince's falsetto vocals.
I would use his regular voice instead.

No TRC voiceover - then it would be one of his best albums.

No segues/skits on the NPG albums.

Make Wasted Kisses and Prettyman proper songs with proper billings.

the extended version of "Vicki Waiting" would be on the Batman soundtrack.

Hearing Prince wailing on a Cloud during that casino scene always seemed like torture without being able to hear it on a stereo.

Where did you get an extended copy of Vikki Waiting?! I've wanted this foy years.

I'd brainwash him into thinking he DID have something to prove the moment he thought he didn't. That would take care of a lot of things from the get-go.

Rerelease NewPowerSoul with an organic, fresh and vibrant interpretation by Prince's current band lineup vs the casio keyboards, shitty drum programming and horridly loud production from the last NPG lineup.

Yeah 'Thunder's great, plus you can't exactly take off the opening track to an album anyway.
And if you remove the songs you stated we're left with...

1.Diamonds & Pearls
2.Cream
3.Strollin'
4.Willing & Able
5.Gett Off
6.Money Don't Matter 2Nite
7.Insatiable
8.Live 4 Love

Not exactly a killer album. smile

I'd only make a few changes to Diamonds and Pearls...

1. take off the 'telephone rap' from Willing And Able.
2. take off the 'manager rant' from Jughead.
3. re-do Prince's rap from Push so it includes all the song names.
4. Include the longer 5:30 edit of Gett Off.
5. Include Horny Pony.

Actually I quite like Jughead musically
(maybe it could be a mad funky instrumental with some
extra wild guitar soloing)

Musically it's pretty cool.
But the song itself was killed as soon as Tony opened his mouth.

Other changes I'd have made...

1. Released a triple album called 'The Dawn' in place of
The Gold Experience & Come (using a lot of the same tracks).

2. Split Graffiti Bridge into 2 albums.. A Prince album called
'New Power Generation' and a various artists soundtrack
album called 'Graffiti Bridge'.

3. Released an album that is a hybrid of 'Sign O The Times'
and the original 'Crystal Ball'. A triple album, but sequenced
more like SOTT. Also including re-recorded versions of some
of the tracks more in keeping with the live versions performed
on the SOTT tour.

4. Included 'Gotta Stop (Messin' About)' on Dirty Mind
(and it would still have been a really short album)

5. Reduced 'Emancipation' down to a single CD... and released
a seperate 'love songs' collection using a lot of the remaining
tracks and outtakes (maybe called it 'The Love We Make').

6. Re-sequenced 'Controversy' so that Do Me Baby is the
final track. Drop Ronnie Talk To Russia completely and replace
it with either 'Theres Something I Like About Being Your Fool'
or 'Broken'.

This, I would like. big grin

Just as long as the title track is on the 'associated artists' cd. lol

But how would the two albums be sequenced though? confuse
