Prince (August 2007) Planet Earth – Special 21 Nights Residency CD UK - Round Edges
A very special edition of Planet Earth produced exclusively for ticket holders of Prince’s historic “21 Nights” residency at the O2 Arena in London. This version features the same 10-track album as the free Mail on Sunday giveaway but comes in a distinctive rounded-edge slipcase with no newspaper references.

CONTEXT & NOTES
During the sold-out 21 Nights residency in August 2007, Prince gifted this exclusive CD to attendees. It is essentially identical to the widely distributed Mail on Sunday version but was customized for the London shows (no newspaper branding, no text around the CD rim, and a rounded slipcase). This remains one of the most sought-after physical editions of the album by collectors.
