CRYSTAL BALL/THE TRUTH I just bought the Crystal Ball off ebay and also got The Truth as a fourth disc. Is this normal? Does The Truth have a cover at all? | |

Kamasutra is an orchestral "ballet" CD, but written by Prince (  ) and performed by the NPG Orchestra.
It's got some samples and has a few good moments, but overall it's boring and weak. Kamasutra was included when you bought CB online. In stores, there were only 4 discs (3 CB + The Truth). |

... I sold my Crystal Ball ... made my own compiliation in chronological order from it ..... just a few good tracks from the 80's .... and a lot of weak shit from the 90's .... Why can't prince make a decent collection??? This "bootleg" can't compete with the real bootlegs: The Work volume 1 and volume 2!! but to answer your questions: it comes in a 4cd-box with the most ugly inlays ... no tracklist. it contains a round booklet with little information about the several outtake-tracks, and a tracklist for The Truth. Why you want a seperate cover for The Truth ... it's a 4cd-box! But the general conclusion about Crystal Ball: it sucks, it's the worst outtake-"bootleg" Now you've found it .. go search for Thunderball's The Work volumes 1 and 2!! | |

There were retail store versions of Crystal Ball that had the 5-Disc set CBx3 + Kamasutra + The Truth. This was the clear "petri-dish" package, which had a booklet. A printable online lyric book was made available (and is still up and running).
The Jewel Case set had only 4-Discs, but had the die-cut round hard-copy booklet. 
Disc one: Crystal Ball Dream Factory Acknowledge Me Ripopegodazippa Love Sign (remix) Hide The Bone 2Morrow So Dark Movie Star Tell Me How U Want 2 B Done Disc two: Interactive Da Bang Calhoun Square What's My Name Crucial An Honest Man Sexual Suicide Cloreen Bacon Skin Good Love Strays Of The World Disc three: Days Of Wild Last Heart Poom Poom She Gave Her Angels 18 & Over The Ride Get Loose Pussy Control (remix) Make Your Mama Happy Goodbye Disc four: The Truth The Truth Don't Play Me Circles Of Amour 3rd Eye Dionne Man In A Uniform Animal Kingdom The Other Side Of The Pillow Fascination One Of Your Tears Comeback Welcome 2 The Dawn (acoustic) Disc five: Kama Sutra The Plan Kamasutra At Last ... The Lost Is Found The Ever Changing Light Cutz Serotonin Promise Broken Barcelona Kamasutra/Overture #2 Coincidence Or Fate? Kamasutra/Eternal Embrace If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Dont bother with The Work 1 or 2. They're incomplete as far as including everything circulating from those periods. Some Prince fans are such dickheads. |

I guess you’re a genius … loving and defending all the crap your little god is releasing …. Crystal Ball sure ain’t complete or even representing the stuf in the vault … it’s weak … Nice calling people names … because they don’t agree with you on a discussion forum … American, I guess! | |

Some Prince fans are such dickheads. they do, however, include MOST of it. and it would be better to pick up the Work sets, and then a few stray boots here and there, than to have to pick up about 20 different bootleg sets that overlap for just a few different songs on each to complete the outtake collection.

Oh Christ. My "little god", arent you one for making assumptions. I love the Prince fans that seem to actually dislike Prince's official work, or even Prince himself...yet can praise bootlegs of his music. As if somehow they are a fan of the bootleg and not Prince. The Work 1 and The Work 2 are not anymore a representation of what is in the vault than Crystal Ball as you put it. Somehow you think you know the vault better than Prince himself. Dickheads. |

...And what a great liitle dig with the "American, I guess!". Yes, American. And the importance of that? Would you like to blab off some anti-american nonsense now? What is the point? |

Who says I don't like the official work ..... I don't like everything that has been released officially .... I sure love the first 11 albums .... but what I don't like is this discussion with you .... | |
