As long as Prince still has a hate-on for Warner Music, any remasters are
probably not going to have the co-operation of the Purple One....meaning
that significant omissions would be the order of the day.
I heard last year he wanted to re-record ALL his albums so that Warners'
versions would be deemed redundant.
Anyone know Prince's current mindset on his old material?
