✦ Come – Album Promo UK: Aug. 1994

A rare double‑vinyl promo pressing — Prince’s final “Prince‑credited” album expanded with exclusive Space and Letitgo remixes.

✦ — SUMMARY

Issued August 15, 1994 in the UK by Warner Bros. Records, this promotional 2×LP edition of Come presents the album in an expanded format, adding a full side of exclusive remixes for “Space” and “Letitgo.” Released during Prince’s public battle with Warner Bros., Come received minimal promotion and became his first album since Controversy (1981) without a US Top 10 single. Despite this, it performed strongly overseas, reaching the Top 10 across Europe and becoming a UK No. 1 album.

This promo double‑LP is one of the rarest vinyl configurations of the era, issued just before Prince abandoned his name in favor of the unpronounceable Love Symbol.
