I'm sure Warners are very happy. biggrin

Still, it is a nice collection, although it lacks Batdance and Partyman to paint a complete picture. Disregarding the then new tracks on The Hits Vol.1 & Vol.2, I think this is a better collection, as these were indeed the hits and they are presented chronologically. biggrin

Prince owns the masters to that album (Batman soundtrack) so they couldn't put them on that compilation.

I don't think Prince owns the masters to the Batman soundtrack -- more likely, the reason songs from that album weren't included on "The Very Best of" was due to trademark/copyright issues with DC Comics (or Marvel or whatever comic book company owns Batman).
Check out The Mountains and the Sea, a Prince podcast by yours truly and my wife. More info at https://www.facebook.com/TMATSPodcast/

You are probably right (and it is DC Comics)...that is so obvious to me...guess I'm a geek.
