Prince’s “Diamonds and Pearls” Album to be Reissued Featuring Unreleased Tracks

Prince’s Diamonds and Pearls, his first album with The New Power Generation, is receiving a massive reissue. Out on October 27th via Paisley Park Enterprises in partnership with Sony Music Entertainment and Warner Records, the expanded release will be available on vinyl, CD, and digital platforms.

In addition to a fresh remastering of the 1991 album, the 12xLP/7xCD super deluxe version includes 47 unreleased tracks and a Blu-ray containing more than two hours of concert performance videos from Prince’s fabled vault, plus a 120-page book containing previously unseen photos and essays from Prince experts.

Other options include the 4xLP/2xCD deluxe edition featuring a collection of single mixes and edits and the standalone remastered album. Pre-orders are ongoing. See the artwork and full tracklist below.

As a preview of the collection, Prince’s estate has shared the previously unreleased tracks “Alice Through the Looking Glass” and “Insatiable (Early Mix – Full Version).” Stream them below.

Diamonds and Pearls follows recent reissues of 1999 and Sign O’ the Times as the latest deep dive into Prince’s vault. Earlier this summer, his estate unveiled “All a Share Together Now” and “7 (E Flat Version)” after previewing the tracks at this year’s Paisley Park Celebration.
