By Lord Blak Tuesday, March 3, 2009 --=[ Prince 7 ]=-- Prince - Crystal Ball [4Cd Set][1998] In early 1998, Prince (who at the time went by an unpronounceable symbol) released Crystal Ball, a four-disc set containing a three CD compilation album of the same name featuring a much anticipated collection of "previously bootlegged" material, with The Truth, a bonus disc of 12 new acoustic songs.
