Wow!

Prince’s vault drilled opened and there’s enough music to release a new album every year for the next century

Unreleased music pre-dates the release of 1984's Purple Rain



Underneath Prince’s Paisley Park estate is a bank vault full of unreleased music. Now, according to ABC News, the vault has been opened by Bremer Trust, who was appointed administrator of the estate following the musician’s death.

ABC News notes that Bremer Trust was forced to drill open the vault as only Prince knew the key code. Inside they discovered enough unreleased music to release a new album every year for the next century.

According to Prince’s former sound engineer, Susan Rodgers, the vault pre-dates the release of 1984’s Purple Rain. “When I left in 87, it was nearly full,” she explained in an interview with the Guardian. “Row after row of everything we’d done. I can’t imagine what they’ve done since then.”

It remains to be seen whether the music will ever be released. Prince had no will at the time of his death, and already his family members are fighting over his assets.

I wonder when Perry will crack open his vault of unreleased music. Maybe there will be enough material for a single..

What was left out of this article is EVERY concert Prince played was recorded and kept in there as well.

From Sinead O'Connor's Facebook page today:

Two words for the DEA investigating where prince got his drugs over the decades.... Arsenio Hall (AKA Prince's and Eddie Murphy's bitch) Anyone imagining prince was not a long time hard drug user is living in cloud cuckoo land. Arsenio I've reported you to the Carver County Sherrif's office. Expect their call. They are aware you spiked me years ago at Eddie murphy's house. You best get tidying your man cave.

And this is the RRHOF performance referenced in the last article I posted.....He starts at 3:28......phew.....

Aaaand I'll shut the fuck up with this one.....had some time to go back and revisit this guy, so I have. For me, a rare vid of Prince (in '87) taking the throne and jammin the drums. Just an all around remarkable performance.

Since I mentioned Kate Bush in another thread, I have to add the song Prince did with her on the album The Red Shoes.



Demo before Prince's contribution




On Prince's Emancipation album, Kate Bush did backing vocals on this track:
