Mr. Heartbreak Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Well, they may feature fantastic guitar solos, but I sure as hell don't remember them. I won't blame Prince for that, though... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Analogman Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 I am trying to recall how I got that - it was a bit odd that I would have owned such a thing. I must have seen the movie and bought it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
