The Hits / The B-Sides

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

Assignment: To write 100 words on 56 songs by the greatest artist the ’80s produced. Even with single edits substituting for full-length versions in a handful of cases, The Hits/The B-Sides is a mighty testament to the man we once called Prince. (For that matter, we still do.) In addition to most of his singles, from “I Wanna Be Your Lover” to “Thieves in the Temple,” from “When Doves Cry” to “7,” this triple-CD set throws in some worthwhile new music and a full disc of the fantastic flips that made buying 7- and 12-inches a must even when you already owned the A-side. “You can be the side effect,” he mutters herein. “I’d rather be the dope.” Witness some of the funkiest pharmaceuticals around. –Rickey Wright

I don’t understand the complaints that others had — This is even LABLED as “The Hits / The B-Sides” — It is exactly what it says it is — You are never going to find this level of variety in any other Prince collection, in one package — I was [and I still am] very satisfied with the music selection included, as well as the packaged liner notes — A lot of unique and interesting information inside — Great quality recordings, discs in great shape [YES, I bought it NEW], Album art and liner notes are in perfect shape as well as the top quality casing — I couldn’t be happier, even though I had to wait, due to a production delay caused by a surge in sales immediately after the untimely death of this musical master — Worth the wait, I didn’t mind at all –Stevie B.
