Wow, that's really cool. Thanks!
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Wow! I'm so glad they went with the one they did.

This one is way too similar to the PRINCE (1979) album. I think this would have made for a more comical reaction.

I can certainly guarantee it is no fake. What I can tell u is that what u see is nothing more than a work in progress - they probably got so far with it, then scraped it and started working on another option instead.

Also bear in mind that when the lovesexy album cover was desinged back in '88, they didnt have anything even close 2 as intricate as Photoshop, they were then using a brand new software that wasn't even freely available 2 the public at that time called Quantel Paint Box. In fact, it was SO new, they had 2 travel back and forth 2 Paris just 2 use it. So no, it AINT perfect. But the fact ur seeing it at all should be worth a gasp or two. The ONLY thing that has been done 2 it since has been some magic 2 try and remove some of the 'noise' from the scan. That's IT.
