Prince and Warner Bros Music announce a new partnership. Remastered deluxe edition Purple Rain album, a new Prince album and Prince gets ownership of his masters. After we collectively pick our jaws off the floor,  we take a look at what lessons Prince may have learned in the 18 years since leaving Warner Bros and what we as fans want to see from this deal.

Tired of waiting for Jesse Johnson, Prince or Morris Day to bless us with that good shit, Michael Dean and Brotha Sayid made they own. We are just students of the game. Fans of 80’s Minnesota funk will appreciate this one. 

In 1982 Prince released 3 albums that would signal the start of his rise to super stardom, Vanity 6, The Time’s What Time Is It, and the double album 1999. Discussion about Nasty Girl, 7779311 and 1999 heating up the charts, and a tour where the opening act was starting to upstage the headliner. Also we talk about our favorite  non-Prince concert experiences, Prince coming to Arsenio Hall and Prince “sacking” his bass player.

In light of  the recent lawsuit and bootleg drama, we ask the question; What If You Never Heard Any Unreleased Prince Music? Would you still be a hardcore fan?

After the recording of this episode Prince said the following regarding unreleased music; “Nobody sues their fans”, before adding: “I have some bootlegs of Lianne [La Havas] but I wouldn’t sell them. But fans sharing music with each other, that’s cool.”

This week the guys get together to discuss Princes recent $20 million dollar lawsuit Dabang319 and 21 other facebook users.

Spin.com has the details:

According to the 21-page complaint filed in U.S. District Court in San Francisco (viaAntiquiet), the defendants “engage in massive infringement and bootlegging of Prince’s material.” The lawsuit targets Dan Chodera, Karina Jindrova, and 20 anonymous defendants. Chodera and Jindrova allegedly operated a no-longer-online Facebook account that posted a bunch of bootleg Prince videos. The other defendants — “Does” 1 through 20 — are accused of similar infractions, such as pointing to a 1983 Chicago set from WorldofBootleg.blogspot.com.

On this episode of the Prince Podcast we do a fan commentary of the classic Sign O The Time Preview concert  “4 Those Of U On Valium”.  This landmark show was the 1st public performance of the Sign O The Times band.  Recorded at First Avenue, Minneapolis March 21st 1987. Prince had the show professional shot. The video was never released to the public and may never see a official release. Over the years fans have acquired this concert and it remains one of the best video testaments of  the Sign O The Times show.  So if you have a copy of this, sit back and listen to the fellas discuss this classic performance.

Bonus talk:1:17:05

Most of times after the podcast recording we get into lengthy discussions about Prince that normally ends up on the cutting room floor.  Michael Dean after a few to many glasses on wine, gives his opinion on Prince and his influences.

Here it is, part 3 of our look at Prince’s epic album, Sign “” the Times album. We are joined by Big Ken, Sean Hill, Big SexyNSac, Deydropping, Antpooh and Arthur Turnball. We discuss what could have been; The Dream Factory, Camile and Crystal Ball albums. The Sign O The Times Movie and was the US market not ready for a Sign O The Times tour?

We apologize about the audio. There was about 20mins of  ‘goodtalk’ that was lost. We hope the added funk can ease the pain.
