Nine Prince Albums Are Set For Vinyl Reissues This Year

Not two weeks after the passing of the icon forever known as Prince, and we're already seeing the plans to rerelease some of his legendary catalogue come to fruition. At the very onset of the summer (June 21st,) Warner Bros. will reissue the first of nine Prince albums on vinyl, treating fans who have spent the weeks since his passing scouring the internet for wax treatments of P's mammoth portfolio to a reasonably priced alternative, which should be welcome when considering the unfathomably hefty price tags currently stamped to original pressings of his work.

If you recall, the reissue campaign was announced well before The Purple One's passing, so let's not dive down the conspiracy hole just yet. Peep the full list of releases down below along with their respective dates. Here's your chance to beat that bastard Discogs reseller at his own game.

June 21st: Around the World In A Day

July 19th: Parade

August 23rd: Sign O The Times

September 20th: The Black Album

October 18th: Batman OST and Lovesexy

November 22nd: Graffiti Bridge OST and Diamonds And Pearls

December 13th: The Love Symbol
