The Hits/The B-sides 3-disc collection (1993) Prince
For Christmas 1993 I got the
Janis 3-disc box set and The Hits/The B-sides and listened to both all winter. I wasn't crazy about all the songs included on The Hits; the new songs were weak, plus all the songs were in random order- it's like there was no plan. I do remember that CD One was made up of the cleaner songs while CD Two had songs like 'Gett Off' and 'Sexy MF'.
Mostly I listened to The B-sides. It has the Purple Rain and Around the World in a Day- era songs like '17 Days' and 'She's Always In My Hair', plus '4 the Tears in Your Eyes' from We Are The World.

Otherwise, this is a by-the-numbers greatest hits compilation, missing only the huge commercial hit 'Batdance,' and including a couple of great new songs (the ballad 'Pink Cashmere,' the blues-rock 'Peach') and finally a decent version of 'Nothing Compares 2 U,' previously recorded by The Family and by Irish chanteuse Sinead O'Connor. Yes the hits are there but I personally feel they fit better in their original context on albums like purple rain and 1999. However for the dedicated Prince fan who knows and loves more than just the hits this is a great CD set. The B sides and rarities are really what make this collection shine IMO. The Hits/The B-Sides is a box set by American recording artist Prince. It was released on September 10, 1993, by Paisley Park Records and Warner Bros. The album is a comprehensive three- disc set consisting of many of his hit singles and fan favorites.
