The Prince estate annouces a 92 Track Super Deluxe to his 1987 album Sign O' The times.

If one thing I give credit to the Prince estate, unlike Michael Jackson,  The Vault has simply kept Prince the artist alive.

 

Well they're at it again. 

 

The estate announced A remastered and expanded reissue of 1987's Sign O' The Times. Now while it's not as successful as 1982's 1999 or 1984's Purple Rain, it's still viewed by critics and fans as his best album of the 80's. 

 

The expanded reissue contains the original 1987 album in a 2020 remastered sound, plus a 13 track set of Single edits, Club Mixes and B Sides. 

 

Plus, we get close to 40 tracks from his vault of material recorded during this era that never saw the light of the day until now. 

 

Plus a live audio concert of the tour from Utrecht. 

Now the physical cd/ Vinyl editions are.

I fail to see how this is a good thing? Like, wasn't Prince a perfectionist to the core? I highly doubt that he would've wanted any of these previously  unreleased songs to see the light of day. 

[redacted statement]

Yay, more milking of dead artists without their consent by releasing music that they probably wouldn't even want released. We love to see it.  Where's the money going to? Better be charity.
