Available On Vinyl For the First Time As Colored Pressing!

The Prince Estate and Sony Legacy, present the first round of physical titles set for release as part of the ongoing and definitive Prince catalog project first announced in August 2018. Three essential full-length Prince albums, Musicology, 3121 and Planet Earth, will be available for the first time ever on highly collectible, colored vinyl. Set for release in February 2019, these three albums celebrate a sustained period of renewed creative energy and commercial triumph in Prince's multi-faceted career and marked his return to the top of the popular mainstream, a position he maintained while simultaneously pushing the envelope and breaking industry norms pertaining to marketing, distribution and live performance.

Prince's studio trilogy of Musicology, 3121, and Planet Earth presents the artist at a high point in his creative genius during the first decade of the 21st century. The 2004-2007 epoch gave us some of Prince's most iconic and indelible performances, including his unforgettable appearance with Beyoncé at the 2004 Grammy Awards, his show-stopping induction at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame a month later, and his incandescent triumph at the Super Bowl in February 2007.

For 2007's Planet Earth, Prince innovated yet another bold marketing and distribution tactic, giving free copies of the album away in the UK via a partnership with the national newspaper The Mail on Sunday. Bucking conventional industry distribution strategy, the innovative partnership fueled Prince's epic 21-night run of sold out shows at London's O2 Arena (20,000 capacity), while back in the US Planet Earth debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. Home to the singles "Guitar," "Chelsea Rodger," "Somewhere Here on Earth" and "The One U Wanna C."
