I remember reading and interview Prince did for Forbes Magazine, where he said that he wanted and aimed 2 get the largest section, shelf space-wise, in all the record stores!! So, far it hasnt happened!! lol lol lol

In fact, whenever I go into record stores here where I live, or when I am in another town or city, I have 2 really hunt for the Prince section!!! But then I have no idea why I do this, cos I have everything they have on display, anyway(except for that crappy The Very Best Of...)!!! But then depending on where I am, I can find the occasional import or something!!

Gone are the days, when there was a new Prince release there were huge promotional displays, and posters in store windows or in lighted up display frames!! I really miss those days!! sad sad
