Prince / Sign ‘O’ the Times / 2009 Japanese mini-LP CD Remembering again today, by taking another look at this 2009 Japanese mini-LP CD of his 1987 album Sign O’ The Times (cat number WPCR-13538/9). It displays the usual stunning attention to detail that Japanese have become known for, in terms of CD packaging and presentation All the elements of the original vinyl are replicated, including the sticker that adorned the front cover.

The postcard that you could send off to join the Prince ‘Fan Club’ (cue nostalgia for the simpler times of life pre-internet) is also included and shrunk down, Mike Teavee-style. A 28-page booklet provides the lyrics in English and Japanese, or, if you get your magnifying glass out, you can read the original lyrics which appear on one side of both of the supplied inner sleeves (peach-on-black and black-on-peach, respectively).

Despite being a double album, the original vinyl of Sign O’ The Times wasn’t a gatefold, so the card sleeve here doesn’t try to rewrite history and sticks to a nicely reproduced glossy wide-spined sleeve. No trouble getting the two SHM-CDs in and out. Like all of Prince’s output, Sign O’ The Times has never been reissued as a deluxe edition.

The album way back in December 2011, but unfortunately a 25th anniversary reissue never happened. Until then, this edition of the album is by far the best way to own it on CD. If you scout around, you will find that some of these Prince Japanese mini-LP CDs but they can be pricey, particularly this one and Parade. I remember waiting outside a record shop on the day of release! I then went into school, rather late, but I didn’t care! This epic event was more important. This is such an awesome album – it’s so hard to know where to begin however, Prince has also produced many other awesome albums.

Someones I wonder if people revere this from a point of nostalgia. This is one of those albums that has to be listened to from start to end. The digital revolution allows people to skip too easily. The confinements of an album can give structure and produces a far greater listening experience. I always thought of this album like a concept album – but without being a concept album. Most of my all time favourite Prince tracks come from this album; If I Was Your Girlfriend, Adore, U Got The Look and I Could Never Take The Place of Your Man. Above all, this album is extremely important for people to understand the importance of editing.
