How is it? Mine should arrive to my wife in a couple of days, since I'm overseas but I won't even be able to listen to it for about a year.
I was happy for this RE. I've always enjoyed it. I think it is one of, if not THE, strongest albums he put out post-2000.
The couple of reviews on Discogs aren't great - talking about surface noise. In the end, I have an OG copy on CD so I've been jamming to it for years. The ballads are great and everything else is a wonderful mix of jazz fusion and/or funk workouts. The guitar work on the title track is superb.
For the One Nite Alone, etc. releases I ordered the CD/DVD set b/c then you get everything plus the live performance DVD. I thought about getting the vinyl, but quite honestly it's kind of a shitty release that I won't really listen to much. I had the original longbox back in the day of the One Nite Alone....Live! releases and they're a rough listen. With the exception of The Aftershow. That disc is brilliant. The live recording of Joy in Repetition is one of my favorite Prince things to listen to ever. It's one of my favorite songs, but the version there is great. The guitar solo gives me chills.
