What!? How come?

i don’t think so. i think the estate is waiting for the anniversary to certain ones. i think the sde will be back this year

Love this track

very great thread

The SDE part is just me bein dramatic since they scrapped the Parade SDE and D&P SDE back to back

if we don't get a purple rain one next year

in dire need of a new remaster/no frankenstein tracks

When they release it and inevitably leave off the Doves demos and instead create some weird hybrid

the estate is looking out for us in our best interests

lol

Does this mean they’re gonna delete his yt channel/take his stuff off streaming? That’d be crazy

Bro’s a savage though

she was talking crazy for the last 3-4 years she don't deserve s***

Such a great thread.

Serendipitously I'm going through my yearly Prince obsession.

Currently have 'I could never take the place of your man' on repeat.

incredible track

i don’t think they scrapped them. i think they want to release them to coincide with a special event

But what event hmmmmmmm 😒

The 2010’s Bowie remasters are the gold standard in terms of rereleases imo

But with the amount of material P had locked in the vault it isn’t so obvious to me that the Bowie method would be the best way to go about it, maybe with Dylan-esque Bootleg series?

y’all have the non edited OG versions?

i think grateful dead way

you have a fan like duane pick the live & studio material with archivist industry vet Michael Howe

Obviously they should go back to debut album to start with. But they probably want to wait for 50th anniversary. Then you can run up the 50th every year. (hell even reissuing the previous sde )

so the 50th may seem eons away but it isn’t.

So that leaves us figuring out why wouldn’t you do that? Buy Jesse Johnson’s prince demos that were given to him - there’s your For U super deluxe right there 🤔

Only Nothing Compares but it's in LQ anyway

Is there a studio version of If I Was Your Girlfriend that sounds like this live performance?

Love the way the bass guitar comes out

Money don't matter 2 night

His best song imo. I remember reading somewhere theres like 40 versions of this song somewhere and i need them all

Bro I played this song religiously last year lol
