A new EP of unreleased music is getting released 4/20. It's only $5.34 on Amazon MP3 but it's also only 16 minutes long.quote:DELIVERANCE features six previously unreleased tracks: "Deliverance," "Man Opera," which includes a four-movement medley: "I Am," "Touch Me," "Sunrise Sunset," "No One Else;" and an extended version of "I Am." The songs were written and recorded when Prince was an independent artist, protesting what he saw as an unjust music industry. In the spirit of that independence, and in supporting Prince's opinion of major label contracts, DELIVERANCE is being released independently via RMA, a Vancouver, WA based record company. The majority of all sales of DELIVERANCE will benefit Prince's estate. Also the estate is suing him. lol quote:Paisley Park and Prince's estate are teaming up in a federal lawsuit against sound engineer and mixer George Ian Boxill who is holding unpublished Prince tracks and threatening to release them, according to court documents. also the $30 million UMG deal regarding his vault is imploding thanks to Prince signing away most of his rights in 2014 along with giving Warner Bros the ability to veto any new release using vault material recorded before 1995. UMG didn't know this and now want a full refund. lol again Please talk about : - Prince - Prince related news - Associates of Prince - Posthumous releases - Past live shows - Tributes - Bootlegs - Paisley Park - New merchandise - Legal proceedings - Cool songs/albums you just heard and want to discuss - Anything else in the purple universe Please don't talk about : -  prince was murdered, there's thieves in the temple - your trivia team Call Me Charlie fucked around with this message at 04:11 on Apr 19, 2017 |

SgtScruffy posted:Any other stereotypical Prince road trip spots to hit up? First avenue, Lake Minnetonka, any others? I haven't been but Sexworld is a few blocks away from First Avenue. That could be fun to visit on a lark. DrVenkman posted:Lol at that guy 'completing the compositions'. So there's a bunch of really sketchy Price vocals that this guy had and has decided to finish them, 'Free As A Bird' style. According to some at the org, he added choir to the title track while people from the estate watched. Apparently where he went wrong was going rogue and attempting to bust through the red tape by releasing it independently on the 1st anniversary without their approval. The whole thing is in the wild and it sounds like something Prince would've put together. Biggest flaw with the whole EP is the guy trying to treat the 'suite' as four different songs when it's clearly one piece of work. - edit Oh, he replaced vocals from The Twinz with the choir. lol https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3673521-Affidavit-Boxill-Notarized.html Call Me Charlie fucked around with this message at 22:43 on Apr 19, 2017 |

Also a tracklist for Purple Rain: Deluxe Edition leaked out. quote:Disc 1: Purple Rain (2015 Paisley Park Remaster) http://variety.com/2017/music/news/prince-purple-rain-deluxe-tracklist-leaks-1202390479/ Pretty disappointing over all compared to the other tracklist that was rumored but Disc 3 plus the concerts are worth the price of admission. - edit A guy on the org had this to say. quote:I ask you to have some trust in this post; please be aware that my sources have asked to shed some light on the leaked tracklist: quote:In addition, we can be sure that 1 of the DVD's will contain the Syracuse 1985 show, transferred from the 1" master reel, with restored and remastered audio. Not the Video or Laserdisc you may have... quote:Our Destiny contains Lisa´s vocals / Roadhouse Garden contains Prince´s vocals.

Goddamn it. The only concert getting included with the final release of Purple Rain Deluxe is Prince And The Revolution LIVE. I was really hoping for a second concert like an offical release of The Makings Of Rain or the Omni show.SgtScruffy posted:Saw The Revolution last night in DC - they could be pretty hit or miss, but overall it was a pretty solid time.

Two new boots dropped today. A new source on the final Atlanta show and I'd argue it's a soundboard. It's pretty close to the quality of the Black Sweat single on Tidal. (- edit spoke too soon. Dark has alot of audience noise on the beginning of it) A boxset called The Flesh Sessions. Alot of it is repackaged stuff that's already available but it has a 60 minute uncut version of Junk Music plus some other instrumental tracks/extended versions.

Guess this explains why there's suddenly only one concert included with Purple Rain Deluxe.quote:In one of his first dealings as an advisor to the Prince estate, Spotify executive Troy Carter is helping negotiate a deal that could give one major streaming service exclusive rights to one of the late pop star’s unreleased concert films as well as rights to make a documentary about the film, sources tell Billboard. http://www.billboard.com/articles/c..._source=twitter and a clip that's supposedly from the new remaster https://twitter.com/vincenpg/status/858250063050555392

El Gallinero Gros posted:In fairness the fact that Warner might still own some of the rights is pretty significant Apparently it goes deeper than that and even the estate is trying to undo the deal now. The whole situation's a real mess. ________ New info about Purple Rain Deluxe from the org. quote:Out of the eleven tracks, only five tracks are connected to the "Purple Rain" project. "Computer Blue" ("Hallway Speech" version), "Fathers Song","Electric Intercourse" (studio),"Possessed (1983 version)"-side note- this 1983 version is false. In actuality, its the re-record from March 17th,1984. How can they get this information wrong. They're Warner Brothers for christ sakes. quote:And let me counter that by saying that this isn't entirely true. No one had "Electric Intercourse," this version of "Katrina's Paper Dolls," " We Can gently caress," and the incredible movie version of "Father's Song." I can't get too into it but don't forget the family also had a say and although yes I'm a professional and have worked on over 800 albums, reissues, boxed sets, dvds etc, I am also a fan and did consult on this project. You obviously have heard the music and I agree with you that Father's Song is the most amazing thing on there. There is also some amazing (never seen) visual stuff that I helped provide and more priceless stuff in the packaging (I'll let that to WB to reveal). Let's don't attack my friend who produced this either, I'm sure you have some idea of what it's like dealing with anything Prince related? Never easy, in life or death. And I have first hand experience in both. Have a great day. Call Me Charlie fucked around with this message at 12:05 on Jun 4, 2017 |

The entire thing has leaked. The Vault disc is SOOOOOOO good. Love & Sex (which opens with the same stinger that was used for Possessed[?] live), Katrina's Paper Dolls, We Can gently caress, Electric Intercourse are probably my favorites but there isn't a dud on that disc. The remaster of the original album isn't bad and the audio with the concert video is on point. But if you listen to the idiots at the Org, Purple Rain is brickwalled, Vault disc is meh, singles disc is flawed and the DVD is a bootleg VHS rip

The only Prince shows I know that were filmed on actual film is the footage from The Second Coming (5 camera shoot in 16mm - which Prince bought back from the original director) and Sign 'O' The Times (which was filmed at Paisley Park after the real concert footage turned out to be unusable - also 16mm except for the U Got The Look portion) But the cool thing is that he taped the majority of his shows so there (should be) an insane amount of live footage in the vault.

Oh god, the Boston 1986 soundboard is in the wild. http://www.princevault.com/index.php?title=03_April_1986 - edit Oh no, the audio isn't anywhere as good as the The Final Parade  It's really rough sounding. If you heard any of Eye Records recent bootlegs, you have an idea of what to expect. - edit 2 Holy poo poo. The 'St. Paul, punk of the month' chant during 10 minute version Mutiny  I'm dying. And it's so goddamn funky.- edit 3 It seems to even out by track 8. Track 1-7 are really rough. The others aren't that bad. ____________ I hope this means that the bootleg Purple Rain Deluxe will be liberated soon. quote:Disc One (65’02): Call Me Charlie fucked around with this message at 07:10 on Jun 27, 2017 |

DrVenkman posted:The Housequake facebook group has some pretty solid criticisms of the Deluxe package. It's only minor, but it is pretty dumb that the opening of 'Erotic City' suffers an audio snafu when the shorter version doesn't. There's nothing stopping them from editing that one second in there just to clean it up a bit. Some of the other issues I've never noticed ('Velvet Kitty Cat' sounds fine to me so that it's a 'lossy' source doesn't bother me all that much and it's entirely possible that's all they had) so I'm not sure how serious they actually are. In terms of things that could have gone wrong, the flaws on Purple Rain Deluxe seem minor. Especially when you compare it to other artists that had new songs crafted out of old vocals (Michael Jackson/Jim Morrison), had studio musicians touch up tracks (Jimi Hendrix in the 70s), had multiple studio takes edited together into a single new take (Jimi Hendrix - Sony) or had fragments of songs released only to "find" the full version later (Jimi Hendrix in the 90s) The original release still exists for the original album, only the most obsessive would notice the glitch at the beginning of Erotic City Extended and I almost prefer the uncirculating earlier versions instead of the later versions we already have. Re: The Dance Electric - It's really interesting to hear vocals I'm sure Prince would have deleted off the final release. It'd kind of like Purple Music where it's just a giant groove instead of what the final Dance Electric morphed into with the screaming guitar. Plus the version we currently have is close in quality to what the official release is. I think a big difference between the two is how the official one has more separation between speakers in the mix while the bootleg seems to have Prince's vox equally in both headphones which gives it a fuller type of sound. Electric Intercourse - I'm in love with the studio version. It's a completely different beast than the live version. Cool thing is how we should see an official release of The Makings Of Rain eventually. Father's Song - Is there a different version circulating in the upper echelon of collectors? I haven't heard anything beyond whispers of people having the full thing before this release. We Can gently caress - It's crazy how catchy Wendy & Lisa's vocalization is near the middle of the track. It's so simple but it works perfectly between Prince's pleading. It's weird to think that this evolved into what we had on Box O Chocolate or Graffiti Bridge, even though the front end of the song didn't change that much. I think alot of the Vault disc makes more sense when you view it as a single piece of work instead of individually looking at the tracks. I had Velvet Kitty Cat way before this was announced and I groaned when I saw it on the tracklist but I think it works pretty well in front of Katrina's Paper Dolls. If you believe the recent rumors, Warner complied a list of tracks they wanted and had the estate pull them from the vault. Which kind of makes sense when you think that The Glamorous Life, Eggplant and Mia Bocca (Sign O The Times: Deluxe Edition next on the docket?) leaked around the same time that Velvet Kitty Cat/Roadhouse Garden did. My personal speculation...maybe they only sourced from the Paisley Park vault? Prince mentioned there were multiple vaults. It's not too hard to imagine them getting a list from Warner, going downstairs and grabbing the first tape box that had the title/date they were looking for without looking any deeper. That could also explain why Velvet Kitty Cat was lossy sourced if Warner requested it and they couldn't find the original tape. I'd be more bothered if this was a high price release but $25 is what I would have happily paid for the Vault disc and everything else is bonus to me. (Although I still haven't gotten my hands on a DVD player so the dvd is still a mystery beyond a poor rip I found) My biggest complaint is with the singles & b-side disc. It'd be so much better if they put the edits first and than the extended versions. As a listening experience, it's terrible to have the same song come on back to back. Vince MechMahon posted:The Electric Fetus (popular record store here in Minneapolis) has a special thing going on where if you get all the reissued singles you get a discount, plus a limited edition Prince themed bag. I was only planning on getting the picture disc vinyl, but ended up doing that. Could you post a picture of the bag when you get it?

Rainmaker - Reach Out 4 Something New (ugh what a stupid name) is out in the wild. I'm just listening to it now but the LinnDrum studio jam is a bunch of fun. It's basically Prince (or somebody) improv'ing over a drum beat on a synth. (whoa at the 12 minute mark of Dirty Mind somebody comes in on guitar) Word has it that Disc Two has some type of noise removal on it but I haven't checked it yet. quote:Disc One (65’02): Call Me Charlie fucked around with this message at 05:12 on Jul 2, 2017 |

Final double post but Eye just released the prince vocals version of 101. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpkHhcpPBHU Knowing them that's probably the best thing in their upcoming untitled release but fingers crossed that they have more unheard stuff in that quality.
