#Prince fans! I’m going to say it now the reason why the Estate isn’t releasing any Vault music:
They don’t have it and/or what was in the Vault was damaged beyond repair.
There is no other reason for it. #Prince4Ever
1000%. My favorite album and they couldn't even add the alt versions of the songs?
Such a letdown...
