I mean from 4u all the way through to Musicology, through the name change and all.

For those of you who do would you rebuy all of them if something happened to some of

them or are there certain ones where you would say oh well.

I think I have them all - and yes I would rebuy them, if something big should fall down on them!!
The question gives me a thought - what is the whole prince-catalogue in albums - could someone please write the list, so I´m sure that I have everything right!

There's no way I could do this in order. (I'm sure someone else can) but i'll try to list all of

them. The numbers are just as they come into my mind. I know not all are in order.

1. 4U
2. Prince
3. Dirty Mind
4. Controversy
5. 1999
6. Purple Rain
7. Parade
8. Around the World in a Day
9. Sign O' the Times
10. Batman
11. Lovesexy
12. Diamonds and Pearls
13. Graffiti Bridge
14. New Power Soul
15. N.E.W.S.
16. The Rainbow Children
17.Chaos n Disorder
18. The Black Album
19. Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic
20. Symbol (Tour De Force)
21. Musicology
22. Emancipation
23. I don't know 4 sure but I guess you could count Crystal Ball
24. I don't know 4 sure but I guess you could count The Hits/Bsides
25. Come
26. I don't know 4 sure but I guess you could count Old friends 4 sale : The Vault

Wouldn´t One Nite Alone be part of the whole Prince-catalog?

And what about "Girl 6" - would that be included?

Wow I can't believe I left out the Gold Experience

Fryd said:

Yes I guess so. Boris listed it. I don't know about Girl 6 though

- Rave In2 the Joy Fantastic (1999)
[/quote]
I guess this is pretty embarasing for me - but what album are we talking about here?

I have everything officially available on original CD including LP's, singles, remixes, soundtrack and compilation discs, side projects, etc. Actually, one disc I don't have is The Very Best Of Prince. I didn't see the point. Got lots of vinyl from the old days too.

I would re-buy everything and anything remastered.

I don't know this for sure seeing as I am not yet a member but I think that is a diff version

or rave Un2 the Joy fantastic that only people of the NPGMC could buy.

The remixed version of Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic that Prince released through NPGMC.
It had the following tracklist, and a lot of people (myself included) think that it is a lot
better than the regular version.

1. Rave In2 The Joy Fantastic
2. Undisputed (The Moneyopolis Mix)
3. The Greatest Romance Ever Sold (Extended Version)
4. Hot Wit U (Nasty Girl Remix)
5. Tangerine (Extended Version)
6. So Far, So Pleased
7. The Sun, The Moon And Stars
8. Man'O'War (Remix)
9. Eye Love U, But Eye Don't Trust U Anymore
10. Beautiful Strange
11. Silly Game
12. Wherever U Go, Whatever U Do
13. Prettyman (Extended Version)

The remix of the Rave Unto album.

BorisFishpaw said:

Is there any way to still buy that if you join or did you have to be a member at the time?

Did you get the NPGMC one or the other one? or did you buy both?

Love2tha9s said:

You can still buy Rave In2 The Joy Fantastic through NPGMC Mail Order (on the website).

Love2tha9s said:

It's $15.99 at the NPGMC.

Funny u should ask if we would rebuy. A couple of years ago my whole collection was stolen. I replaced everyone so far except the bootlegs and For You which I'll probably get soon. I have everything released plus the cd maxi singles for

Thieves in the Temple
New Power Generation
Gett Off
Cream
7
Letitgo
Good Life

Also i have the Gold single, Exodus, T.C Ellis, Carmen Electra, Girl 6, a couple Morris Day albums(Daydreaming Gauranteed), Pandemonium, Ice Cream Castles, Mayte's album, Ingrid Chavez's album, Madonna's Like a Prayer for Love Song. I also have a lot of 12" on vinyl plus a few 45's. I have numerous bootlegs too.

Love2tha9s said:

Wait a minute: do u mean the whole Prince albums collection or EVERY damn song EVER released by Prince including collaborations & non-album tracks ?

I have a composition Word File catalog with Track times for DJs of everything Prince has ever touched.

Got'em all in many forms (some on vinyl, some on cassette, ALL on CD) The only thing I wouldn't replace if something happened to it is my 1999 New Master

I've tried my best over the years but I really feel it's impossible 2 get everything I even collect different picture sleeves ie even if I already have the songs I would buy the same songs again if the cover art is different.
I have multiple copies of a lot of stuff if I see a Prince record in good condition I buy it! I'm such a

So VBOP isn't remastered? I don't have it either but I made a comp recently & wondered if I'd get better sound quality from songs on VBOP...

You wouldn't get better sound from that CD. Same stuff no remastering. See above post.

BorisFishpaw said:

what happened to 1998 - NewPowerSoul ?

npgmplsTN said:

I listed it in my list. At the very top. If yall bought the NPGMC version of Rave did you buy

the one released through Arista or do you just have one copy?

I still would have to buy back Come, Controversy, Batman, Around the World in a Day,

Diamonds and Pearls, News, LoveSexy, and One Night Alone + Prince to complete my

collection. Some I never had, I listened to my bros. version so some i'll be buying for

the first time as my own copies like Around the world in a Day, Controversy, 4U

Prince, and Lovesexy.

One Nite Alone neither one of us have ever heard. Is the whole disc acoustic or just

the one they gave for free to the NPGMC members who ordered the original set?

Batman, Chaos and Disorder, would be both buy backs also.
[This message was edited Sun May 30 16:55:59 2004 by Love2tha9s]

I got everything as far as I know. Plus about a hundred or more "Fan club" recordings as well. Oh yea!

npgmplsTN said:

As Boris stated in his list of albums, he only listed albums credited to PRINCE and/or
New Power Soul is credited to The NPG, so technically it isn't a Prince/ album.

I have a stupid big collection. I mean Boris, Squirrel brother, Neversin type huge collection.

Would I collect it again? No. I've been doing it since 1985 and I've seen the top, and its just a dream!

I sit here typing in my study, with my gold disc of SOTT, Parade, ATWIAD, PR and 1999 looking down at me and I think.....why?! But...they look damn good!

Have I got the biggest collection? I think so. Its impossible to judge. Lets look at the "For You" album. I have 14 variations. Thats a good starter.....

yes I have all of them, and I would rebuy them, and I would rebuy them in a different format as well
