The Hits/The B-Sides [Box] - Prince (Cassette 1993)

  Prince, the Box Set!
Review created: 11/30/02

Pros:
It's Prince. It's 56 songs!!!

Cons:
Not always the best selection.

Since we've already reviewed the first two discs in this box set, I'll keep my comments about them to a minimum. And I'll get to them later. First we'll talk about the third disc, The B-Sides. For the reviews of the first two "Hits" discs, here's the links: http://www.epinions.com/content_81072393860 http://www.epinions.com/content_81780379268 Onto the B-Sides. Anyone who buys Prince singles can tell you they rarely do it for the singles themselves, but the B-Sides which almost always prove to be, if not better, then just as good as the songs they're supposed to compliment.

  Compilation of Genius
Review created: 11/23/00

Pros:
A lot of great songs

Cons:
Some of his personal musing that may offend

I have been an avid Prince fan since the day I first heard his single 'Soft and Wet' back when I was in 5th grade. I think the year was 1978 or 79. Anyway, what a lot of people(that is most Prince non-fans) do not know is that some of this artist best work was never released to the masses. Forever to be know as B-side songs. This compilation album gives the listener the best of Prince, both worlds. It has something for those of you who are familiar only with the Hits, such as: Disc 1: When Doves Cry, Pop Life, Soft And Wet, I Feel For You, Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad?, When You Were Mine,..

  Prince Hits/B-Sides - Slave to Warner Brothers
Review created: 07/23/00
by: DukeSunflow -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
It's Prince. It's His Hits.

Cons:
It's too short. Needs more discs, full versions of hits.

Yes, most of you know the Artist Formerly known as and Now Currently Known as Prince as a weirdo eccentric genius who made some great music in the 80s, then seemed to sink deeply into trying to sabotage his career. The culprit, at least the one he blamed, was Warner Brothers. See, Prince was nothing if not prolific, creating hundreds (some said up to 1000) songs that crammed his tape vaults. Some were good, some were bad, and Prince wanted them to see the light of day. But bad old Warners, having signed the Purple One to a big contract (which according to a book I've been reading, may have...
