🟣 NPG Music Club Digital Drop – Digital Drop: Mar. 2005

Digital Release — No Label / No Catalogue Number

Released: March 26, 2005 (Worldwide)

A landmark NPG Music Club drop restoring access to multiple out‑of‑print Prince‑related albums and rare videos.

On March 26, 2005, the NPG Music Club made a major digital availability drop, offering fans the chance to download several long out‑of‑print Prince‑related albums for the first time in years. The titles included Crystal Ball, The Truth, Kamasutra, Newpower Soul, The War, One Nite Alone…, and One Nite Alone… Live!. The drop also featured streaming videos for “Willing And Able,” “Anotherloverholenyohead,” and “Everybody Get On Up” by Carmen Electra. As these were digital‑only re‑availabilities, no Discogs‑verified physical editions exist for this event.

These albums and videos span multiple eras of Prince’s career, from the late 1990s to the early 2000s. Their re‑availability through the NPG Music Club reflects Prince’s pioneering approach to digital distribution and his desire to control access to his catalogue.
