プリンスさんのインスタグラム動画 - (プリンスInstagram)「In 1996, Prince released a staggering amount of new music, including his final studio album for @warnermusic, Chaos and Disorder; and the triple-album Emancipation, his first independent release distributed in a partnership between his own NPG Records and EMI. 🔸 Rather than hit the road to promote his final Warner Bros. release, Prince instead spent much of 1996 holed up in his studios at @officialpaisleypark, working closely with his longtime drummer Kirk Johnson to capture dozens and dozens of new songs. He whittled a list of nearly 100 tracks down to 36 for the three-disc set Emancipation. 🔸 Some of the tracks on Emancipation dealt directly with his professional battles — including “Slave,” “Emancipation,” and the blistering “Face Down” — while many more reflected on his tender feelings toward his new wife, Mayte Garcia. 🔸 The album also marked the first time in his career that he included covers of other artist’s songs on one of his own releases, including the touching ballads “I Can’t Make You Love Me” (@bonnieraittofficial) and “Betcha By Golly, Wow!” (The Stylistics). 🔸 “I’ve been recording almost every day of my life, working on a vast number of styles,” Prince told @rollingstone when Emancipation was released. “I’ve always looked forward to the day when I would be free from any demands of any kind from anyone—free to do everything I want to do.” 🔸 On September 13, Emancipation will be reissued on CD and available on vinyl for the very first time, along with Chaos and Disorder and the rare mixtape The Versace Experience: Prelude 2 Gold. 🔸 Preorder now: https://prince.lnk.to/1995-1996」8月14日 5時16分
