Taylor Swift finishes re-recording all her early work, begins releases. Something that PRINCE spoke about many times wanting to do and in some cases saying he did, or was in the process of doing is now being done, by Taylor Swift. Swift who was not pleased her masters were sold and the fact of who they were sold to, it should be commended her fight, and also as a female doing this. It may sound nuts to redo your old albums but Taylor said she was going to do it, and she has. The first album FEARLESS is set to be released in April the first single released this past Friday "Love Story" very smart again right before valentines day. Taylor is not only re-recording the albums to own the masters she is pulling songs not released "from her vault" for the fans to make it worth getting them again. This first album which had a deluxe back then now will have 26 tracks, six never released before. I believe they will be released not just digitally but on cd and lp, with new artwork, with the title and the (Taylors Version) next to it. If you like her or not, props to her for doing this, because her fans are loyal to the early to the POP stuff to the stuff she is doing now, and they will buy it all. It is ironic how PRINCE wanted to do this too, all we got was 1999 a terrible re-work of the song, timely , but I think the problem was that PRINCE then could not get the players back to do this stuff, Taylor is solo but also PRINCE did play alot of the stuff, but he also had bands, some he fired, some left and who knows why the idea of re-recording never materialized possibly it was YET again PRINCE getting bored with something and moving on to something. Either way Props to Taylor.

I believe 'The Purple Medley' was also composed of portions of those new masters. The new 'Starfish and Coffee' master featured during Prince's appearance on the Muppet Show and Morris Hayes has discussed remixing at least Prince's first album for the new masters project, so it's likely much more remains in the vault. I think a greatest hits new masters collection from Prince was more of a possibility. I wonder if the abandoned Very Best of Symbol album slated for the NPGMC was just that or a different project entirely. | |

People say there's absolutely no difference between Love Story and Love Story (Taylor's Version) | |

the eps actuall were for songs from folklore and evermore, I believe she was doing variations of the singles these were only available through her store not iTunes and others or at least not complete, and they were available for purchase, but those albums she owns all the masters already I believe her re recordings are for the first six records she released.
