There's one in Queens! :-) He must be getting a great advance from
them. Christina Ag released an album exclusively through Target late
last year - no one bought it. Guns N Roses did Best Buy, with so-so
results. Walmart has been successful with Bruce Springsteen, AC/DC,
etc, but it's been rumored that part of their deal is that Walmart
buys a few thousand copies in the first week to help boost sales. I
know there are other factors with those albums, but a Target exclusive
is pretty much going to guarantee Prince less album sales (obviously).
Besides that, I'm excited to get all of the new music at once! I think
that's a huge plus. And the $12 price. GREAT! Smart, too.

<Moderaator: Brilliant because the Bria's album is a throwaway album. Nobody
would of normally purchased it anyway. We don't know who she is and most of
us don't care. He has done little promote her or create a relationship with
his fans. Major misstep on his part. So she will make an easy 100,000 units
from the handful Prince of fans left and disappear into obscurity like most
