Every Bowie release that has come out since his passing was planned and OK'd by Bowie long before he passed away. darkeyelids, throughbeingcruel and bungie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need crystal ball on vinyl. I still have my cd set set but I don't collect CDs anymore so I have little use for it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfingelectrode Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Would also love reissues of Come and The Gold Experience. I've got a copy of the latter, but it's in pretty rough shape. joshman150 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up picking up the European press of the Rhino reissue for $20 shipped to the US from Amazon.co.uk Family Friendly Rap God 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherslovely85 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I'm curious how long the self titled is going to be back ordered (seemingly everywhere). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homie must've forgotten about the boxset that came out before Bowie died, which contained all the LPs that were individually released this year.

serum7 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Sooo tempting to pick these up. Trying to find near flawless copies of his albums has proven to be difficult over the years. My best pick-ups have been sealed copies of Around the World In A Day and the purple 12" Purple Rain single. Have there been any rumors of a boxset at the end of all this? Would love to have one incredible set with bonus goodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfingelectrode Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Picked up the s/t today and am really happy with it. Looks and sounds great. Family Friendly Rap God 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshman150 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Just got the copy of Plectrumelectrum I ordered the day before he died. I was worried the seller on Amazon had canceled following his death to jack up the price. I never listened to it originally and I am really enjoying it. Also on that note anyone who hasn't heard Art Official Age or doesn't have it on vinyl I really suggest getting it. It is definitely my favorite Prince album after Diamonds & Pearls. It has some great tracks on it. I'm not sure how difficult it is to find on vinyl currently but it is definitely worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered it a day prior to him passing and I started to worry that it wasn't going to show up. It finally arrived yesterday so I'm happy with that. Another one I'd like to see get issued is Emancipation. Not sure when / if that'll happen, but I'm crossing my fingers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacobMckinley Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Also, Musicology and 3121 please? You would think those would have been out on vinyl ages ago. drivervr628 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a promo press (bootleg?) of "3121" that came out back in the day. https://www.discogs.com/Prince-3121/release/1836244 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just sold my complete Prince CD collection so I could get all of the vinyl I didn't have already and reissues of my favorites. Now i just need them to reissue that mid 90's-2000's stuff. I have no idea why there hasn't been a Gold Experience vinyl announced. That album had his last super big hit on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been out of print in any format (and unavailable on iTunes/Tidal) for years. joshman150 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was released on NPG Records and I think WB distributed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
