Prince’s Sign O’ The Times Reissue Tops Today’s Album Announcements

His Purple Majesty's 1987 release is the latest title to get the makeover treatment.

Prince’s Sign O’ The Times is getting the royal treatment. The latest in a series of expanded reissues, his Purple Majesty’s 1987 album will arrive this fall in variety of editions and formats — including a gigantic Super Deluxe Edition with 8 CDS (or 13 LPs) and more than 45 unreleased tracks (including the one below) from the legend’s infamous (and apparently boundless) vaults. For those who don’t want to spend a couple of weeks’ wages, there will also be more compact versions. Speaking of signs of the times: The set is just one of a few dozen new titles announced in the past day or so. Scroll down to see all the latest additions to the list, and don’t forget to visit the Upcoming Releases page for the entire roster.
