Album Description
Available in:
"The Very Best Of Prince" est la quatrième compilation de Greatest Hits de Prince, après "The Hits 1", "The Hits 2" et "The Hits / The B-Sides", tous publiés en 1993. Elle est sortie le 31 juillet 2001 sous le label Warner Bros. Records et contient 17 chansons qui ont toutes été extraites en tant que singles des précédents albums de Prince entre 1979 et 1992. L'ordre des chansons sur l'album correspond à l'ordre des extraits de singles. La durée de l'album est de 73 minutes et 18 secondes. À l'exception de la chanson "Money Don't Matter 2 Night", toutes les chansons de l'album figurent également sur "The Hits / The B-Sides". "The Very Best Of Prince" a été présent dans le classement américain Billboard pendant 66 semaines, dont une semaine à la première place, à titre posthume le 7 mai 2016. Avant la mort de Prince, l'album n'avait atteint que la 66e place dans le classement américain Billboard. "The Very Best Of Prince" s'est vendu à environ 2,9 millions d'exemplaires aux États-Unis, ce qui lui a valu le statut de disque de platine. En Allemagne, l'album s'est vendu à 175.000 exemplaires et a atteint la cinquième place du classement des albums allemands.
User Album Review
Warner Brothers appear to believe Prince’s career had ended when his contract with then expired. Let’s face it, this disk actually showcases how remarkable his Warners career was. It contains all the stuff the casual fan should already have heard, although it is good stuff at that. Yet we all know this CD is a half-baked effort to make Warner Brothers rinse as much money as possible out of the Purple Reign legacy that was running out of steam by 2002. Or so they thought! Does The Very Best Of Prince really contain his ‘very best’? Going by unit sales and familiarity, yes. Perhaps the album would have been better named Essential Prince since the ‘very best’ of his work is not here, that’s what you get with the industry exec and not the artist picking the track list. With all these hits in one place though The Very Best Of Prince saves some album hopping and sometimes, even for the most obsessive Prince fan, hearing all the hits in one sitting is a guilty pleasure. Though this is all stuff fans own and know note for note and is not quite so the perfect album for that simple reason it is wonderfully nostalgic of an era when Prince reigned supreme. Use this album only as a gateway to the better material on others.
