Hopefully everyone is having a good Thanksgiving weekend. I worked Black Friday and did something terrible to my ankle so I'm sitting around in agony, but I can't rest for too long so here is a big post I've been promising!
So I said I would post all the non-album Madhouse tracks and I'm following through with that promise. At the bottom of this post you can download all seven officially released Madhouse tracks that didn't end up on any of their albums as well as the 1993 version of 24, both in FLAC and V0 MP3. 17, the track, is from the 1-800-NEW-FUNK compilation but doesn't appear on the unreleased 1993 version of 24, whereas the other six were released on 12" singles in 1987. Those six are not my rips, rather they're taken from a torrent I found on Demonoid with one hundred Prince side-project singles and remixes. I've tweaked those files a bit as they had a lot of unnecessary silence, were kind of quiet and had some clicks and pops, so I ran them through iZotope RX's automatic declicker, normalized them to -.25db and edited them a bit. I don't know who posted the tracks on Demonoid but big credit to them for their hard work. I also normalized 17 but no other work was done to that track.
As for There Are No Kings, the plan is to create Homemade Deluxe Editions for all of Prince's albums from 1978 through 1992. The hope is to use vinyl rips for the main albums and the best available sources for all additional tracks with credit given to any of the source providers. As of now I have original US vinyl pressings of all Prince albums from 1978's For You through 1988's Lovesexy, an official 1994 German pressing of The Black Album, original US pressing of the Vanity 6 album and a few other minor tidbits. DJ Richie P from the Fun With Vinyl blog had also offered to help me with some of the side-project vinyl releases by ripping them for the project and letting me use the rips posted on his sites for which he will receive all credit. Squirrelgrease is handling the art for the Ridiculously Deluxe Edition of Sign O' The Times but I know he's a busy guy so he might not be able to help out with the other posts, so we'll see how that works out. Regarding other Prince releases that myself and Richie don't have, if anyone has vinyl copies of the following albums and would be happy to do vinyl rips it would be much appreciated and you would be thanked and credited for your contributions.
Batman
Graffiti Bridge
Diamonds and Pearls
0-+-> (1992's Love Symbol Album)
The Gold Experience
Also, if anyone wants to contribute art it would be truly appreciated. Matter of fact, if anyone wants to contribute additional sets of artwork that would be great too. I may be doing a lot of the set-up on the audio content but I'm not a visual artist so anyone who wants to help with that is always welcome. In fact, any input is welcome and I'd love to hear what people have to say. As of right now, the only other things approaching completion are a two disc version of the Purple Rain album and a minor revision of the version of Lovesexy I posted at The Unheard Music.

I haven't asked anyone other than those thanked for permission to use any of their sources but I intended to do so before I post these releases. If anyone reads this beforehand and has an issue, please let me know and I'll be happy to resolve it. The Sign O' The Times box will be posted on December 10th as originally stated with the Purple Rain and Lovesexy editions appearing near the end of December or early January. More information will be given as things get further along, although early work has been done on Around The World In A Day.
Anyway, let me know if anyone has any questions and I'll try to answer them in a timely fashion. And as promised, download links for the Madhouse Non-Album Tracks and the 93 version of 24 are below. Enjoy and everyone have a nice weekend!
