Prince - Diamonds and Pearls: Clear LP Edition

Prince, the musical prodigy and genre-blending genius, showcased his evolving artistry with his thirteenth studio album, "Diamonds and Pearls." Introducing a fresh era with his new backing band, The New Power Generation, this album stands out as a pivotal point in his illustrious career.

Overview:

"Diamonds and Pearls" not only showcased Prince's innate ability to produce hit after hit but also encapsulated the energy of the early '90s. With six chart-topping international singles, including the sultry “Gett Off”, the smooth "Cream", and the powerful title track, this album left an indelible mark on the music landscape.

Historical Context:

Released on October 1, 1991, "Diamonds and Pearls" swiftly climbed the global charts, securing its position as one of Prince's most commercially successful non-soundtrack albums. Beyond its commercial success in the USA and UK, its cultural resonance was felt worldwide, making it Prince's best-selling album in the UK.

The album's vast success can be attributed to several factors. Prince's strategic engagement with major television exposure and a comprehensive world tour played a significant role. This tour covered Europe, Japan, and marked Prince's debut performance in Australia. Additionally, the album's diverse sound palette catered to a wide array of musical tastes, making it a universally appealing masterpiece.

Remastered Edition:

In celebration of its enduring legacy, "Diamonds and Pearls" has been meticulously remastered by Bernie Grundman, Prince's original mastering engineer. This new edition offers listeners an enhanced auditory experience, capturing the essence and brilliance of the original recordings. The 2LP set, pressed on 180 gram clear vinyl, is not only an auditory delight but also a visual treat for collectors and fans alike.
