Great post! Thank you for that. I cancelled my order for Sgt. Pepper until I know how the new mix sounds. Tonight I will Controversy. I know how the mix sounds.
Surprise Prince EP to Arrive One Year After Death Deliverance The snippets of this song sounds fantastic, Damn how could he keep this unreleased?
I'm totally missing it then. What I thought was illegal was to put someone else's name on the prescription bottle, regardless of who actually picks it up and pays for it.
If this is the case, couldn't there be a wrongful death case like what happened to Dr. Conrad Murray?
I thought the Estate was releasing this? Now this.....Paisley Park, Prince Estate File Lawsuit Against Sound Engineer Holding Unpublished Tracks Here is complete song Deliverance
Thanks, Zen. Add that to the list of great songs he threw away. Call me cynical, but I'm not believing hordes of unreleased songs will be loaded on the public until I see them.
I agree. This E.P. would have been a great release on the 1 year anniversary of his death. Why didn't the Estate come up with this type of release? Now they are bringing a lawsuit to block it. It seems it will take a long time for unreleased material to surface if we are waiting on his Estate.
They don't care about the music, obviously. They are interested in what they can get for themselves. There should have been something released on the 21st of April, something to mark the occasion with a forward-looking attitude toward the legacy of his artistry.
Maybe it's agreed that WB with announce the track listing for the Purple Rain deluxe on April 21st. *shrug*
As posted here it seems it's being released in June now: New Prince: 4Ever (2016) & Purple Rain Deluxe (2017)
You need to some research in regards to the complex mess that Prince left behind in relation to his estate, mostly because he didn't leave a will.
didn't see this 'til now...come on, Man's gotta Eat !! i believe neither venture included anything negative towards his bud nor anything about the 'murder'. in fact, both were done when he was still hanging with OJ in the mid-90's therefore with his blessing. he could've easily made a small fortune by writing a book or selling his story to the tabloids, anytime in the past 20+ years. yet, he hasn't said nada & stayed out of limelight even with all the OJ resurgence last year. whatever you may think of him, he's one loyal dude and perhaps too good of a friend for someone like mr. Simpson. i just hope 'your boy' Kirky J. is even quarter-way loyal to his bud like mr. Cowlings has been for the past 20+ years. .
Yes, I'm so glad "Phase One" wasn't his last. That one was pretty weak. Right now I'm listening to "Lotusflow3r", another pretty solid of his later albums. I might take this day to watch the "Purple Rain" Blu-ray I bought a few months ago, maybe even followed by the "Sign 'O' The Times" Blu-ray.
