| PrinceTHE VAULT... OLD FRIENDS 4 SALE
The Vault: Old Friends 4 Sale is the twenty-second studio album by American recording artist Prince. It was released on August 24, 1999 by Warner Bros. Records. The album was submitted to Warner Bros. Records in 1996, complete with artwork at the same time as Chaos and Disorder, but released three years later, shortly before Prince's Arista album release Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic. The album was recorded from 1985 through 1994. It was the last album to be released by Warner Bros. to fulfill his 1992 contract obligations. -Wikipedia

AV Club
The selection is as scattershot as the songs are disappointing

Rock NYC
We have no Prince and so despite its lightness, it is indeed Prince and we miss him: one way or another it is definably Prince
-
NME

All Music
It's an unassuming, jazzy little record that's damn near irresistible.

The Vault… Old Friends 4 Sale provides some gems

The Guardian
Controversial taster from Prince’s fabled Vault of thousands of unreleased songs. Fans would tell you the bootlegs are better. Fans would be correct.

It is a worthy addition to a music collection if you like hearing Prince in a mode other than rock
