Details
Emancipation was as expansive an album as anything Prince had ever released. A triple album constituting exactly three hours of music, Emancipation found Prince celebrating the release of music solely on his terms. This is my most important record, he proclaimed upon its release. Im free, and my music is free.
Much like Paisley Park, the recording complex in which Prince created Emancipation, the album represents the incredible variety of his influences and moods. Romance and family are key themes (Somebodys Somebody, The Holy River, The Love We Make), reflecting his recent marriage to dancer and muse Mayte Garcia that year. Elsewhere, Prince reflects on technology (My Computer) and sex (In This Bed Eye Scream), and offers new, upbeat grooves (Face Down, Jam Of The Year) as well as four unique covers (Bonnie Raitts I Cant Make You Love Me, the Philly soul classics Betcha By Golly Wow and La, La, La Means I Love U, and Joan Osbornes then-recent rock hit One Of Us).
Reissue of long out-of-print 3xCD package in an 8-panel softpak - 3 pockets for the 3CDs and one pocket for the booklet.
