The original album was remastered at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in 2015, overseen by [[Prince]]. Originally a remastered edition was already expected and (at some point) planned to be released in 2014, when in April of that year [[Warner Bros.]] announced they signed a deal with [[Prince]] for a new album or album(s) by [[Prince]] to be released through them. At the same time it was announced a 30-year anniversary of [[Album: Purple Rain|Purple Rain]] was in the making.
