Re: [Prince-4ever] Q.O.T.D. The Bootlegs ...

Ironic question

I was just listening to Crystal Ball the Official release of the bootlegs of the 80s and early 90's i'd have to guess on today. I do not believe that it takes away from the official releases if anything it creates a fuller picture of the mindset and music Prince was making during these years. I think it is a good thing to own the boots and it doesn't make you any less of a fan if you don't. Truth be told I don't own any of the boots from the 80's (only the official releases of the Black Album and Crystal Ball in 90's when P was battling WB) but I heard plenty about them. I also hear that the studio releases are not the same as those released in the 90's. I was a child at that time but into Prince but I didn't have any money back then. LOL!

Here's a Q.O.T.D. (Question of The Day):

For the fam that have bootlegs (I'm not tryin' to put anybody on "BLAST") & those who do not have boots:

Does anyone believe that having bootlegs in their collection of Prince music take away from the appreciation of the albums and
official releases that have been released?
