Diamonds And Pearls (Front Cover)
Diamonds And Pearls Super Deluxe Edition is the deluxe remaster box set of Prince’s thirteenth album Diamonds And Pearls (credited to Prince and the New Power Generation), including a disc of remastered b-sides and remixes, three CDs of vault tracks, a full show of live audio from the 11 January 1992 show at Glam Slam, Minneapolis, MN, and a Blu-Ray release of that same show, the 20 July 1991 Special Olympics performance at the Minneapolis Metrodome, as well as its soundcheck, and the full Diamonds And Pearls Video Collection, previously only available on VHS (released in 1992) and DVD (released in 2006).

A vinyl edition is also available, along with smaller configurations using only the remastered album, and/or with the b-sides/remixes.

Sessions and compiling

See Diamonds And Pearls for details on recording of the thirteen original tracks.

The Prince Estate started to work on Diamonds And Pearls Super Deluxe Edition in 2020, following the release of Sign O’ The Times Super Deluxe Edition. The set has ben years in the making and was the subject of some online controversy when it became apparent that a set consisting of material spanning both the Diamonds And Pearls and eras was in the works. The set (planned to be titled Diamonds & Love) was rumoured to be released in 2022, when a screening of the 11 January 1992 show at Glam Slam, Minneapolis was part of Celebration 2022. In the summer of 2022 Prince’s estate estate was split between Prince Legacy LLC and Prince OAT Holdings LLC (owned by music publishing company Primary Wave) and the new team worked on the project some more, with a strict focus on the Diamonds And Pearls era.

The set includes 75 audio tracks across 7 CDs/12LPs, of which 47 are previously unreleased (33 studio tracks and 14 from a live performance). The original album and b-sides have been remastered for the very first time by Prince’s original mastering engineer Bernie Grundman. The set also includes an entire previously unreleased audio recording of Prince and the New Power Generation’s preview performance of the Diamonds And Pearls Tour at Prince’s Minneapolis club, Glam Slam, on January 11th, 1992. The Blu-ray features the same show (presented in 2K video with Dolby ATMOS / Dolby True HD 5.1 / Stereo audio), as well as the Special Olympics Concert recorded and broadcast on July 20th, 1991 (in 1080p HD video with Dolby ATMOS / Dolby True HD 5.1 / Stereo audio) and Special Olympics Soundcheck recorded on 19 July 1991 (in 2K video with Stereo audio). The Blu-ray content is completed by the inclusion of a restored version of the Diamonds And Pearls Video Collection (in 1080p video with Stereo audio), originally released in 1992.

The Super Deluxe Edition is accompanied by a fold out poster and a 12” 120 page hardback book featuring rare and previously unseen photography by Randee St. Nicolas, handwritten lyrics by Prince and essays by author & broadcaster Andrea Swensson; Archivist and Senior Researcher for The Prince Estate Duane Tudahl; British music critic and Prince expert Jason Draper; De Angela L. Duff, an Industry Professor at NYU Tandon School of Engineering in Brooklyn; Social Media Personality KaNisa Williams; and an introduction from Public Enemy founder, Chuck D..

Promotion

The set has been teased for months on social media for months. A pre-announcement was made on the official Prince social media channels on 21 August 2023. The 7cd+Blu-ray/12LP+Blu-Ray set was announced on 24 August. Along with the announcement the previously unreleased tracks Alice Through The Looking Glass and Insatiable (Early Mix - Full Version) were released digitally. A promotional video for the Diamonds And Pearls Super Deluxe Edition was also released on 24 August 2023.

The album has not charted yet.
