Prince was truly the reigning star of the 1980s. This reconstruction attempts to present whatPrince originally intended the Dream Factory album to sound like,volume-adjusted and using the best possible masters-EQd to match a virgin vinylrip of Sign o’ The Times-to make themost natural-sounding album possible. Warner Bros Records then askedPrince to whittle the 3LP down, and the result was the double album Sign o'The Times, which many consider to be Prince’s masterpiece. Prince then turnedhis attention to a solo concept album Camille, which was also scrapped and combinedwith the Dream Factory material to create the unreleased triple album CrystalBall. Originally conceived as a double album with asignificant amount of creative input from the band (at least compared toprevious Prince releases), the album was scrapped after Prince broke up TheRevolution in 1986. In honor of the passing of Prince, this is a reconstructionof what would have been his final album with The Revolution, 1986’s Dream Factory, which eventually evolved into Sign o' The Times.
