Newspapers always give away excellent albums

To be fair, the disc would have had to have been pressed in gold with diamond accessories to get me to buy the Mail.

Will these free CD's count as units sold? if so I'm guessing that Prince will be having a no. 1 album this week?

The packaging is crap.
No song listings.
Awful presentation.

I listened to a bit of it and its rubbish.

No they don't - any album with "promo" material is automatically discard from the charts.

Really like it ... thinks it one of his best in a while

thinks its great the way he's given the record companies etc a smack in the face by giving it away free

He is also going to be giving a copy of it free to evryone who attends his concerts at the O2 arena in the next couple of weeks apparently

Official release in the stores is 24th july , packaging will be proper standard then i imagine

Whens the last time you saw a freebie in a newspaper packaged in anything other than a cardboard sleeve?

The very same record companies that helped discover him and propel him to stardom in the first place....

Just another side to the Prince debate that has been doing the rounds in the office today

How old is he now btw?! He still looks about 15 but he must be well into his 40s and possibly 50s, no?

Now that's the ScoobyNet way

There's nothing like having an open mind on a subject


I've got a copy, listened to it, and it will end up in the bin

Considering his undeniably massive talent, he isn't half capable of churning out some rubbish

Not unlike one of his influences, Stevie Wonder, in fact
