1999 is the fifth studio album by American recording artist Prince. It was released on October 27, 1982 by Warner Bros. Records. The album was his first top ten album on the Billboard 200 chart in the United States (peaking at number 9) and became the fifth best-selling album of 1983 and was certified Multi-Platinum by RIAA. 1999 was Prince's breakthrough album, but his next album, Purple Rain, would become his most successful. The title track was a protest against nuclear proliferation and became his first top ten hit in countries outside the United States.  It was also the first album to feature The Revolution. The band's moniker is written in reverse on the front cover.

According to the Rolling Stone Album Guide, "1999 may be Prince's most influential album: Its synth-and-drum machine-heavy arrangements codified the Minneapolis sound that loomed over mid-'80s R&B and pop, not to mention the next two decades' worth of electro, house, and techno." In 2003, the TV network VH1 placed 1999 49th in its list of the greatest albums of all time. The album was also part of Slant Magazine's list "The 50 Most Essential Pop Albums" and the magazine listed the album at #8 on its list of "Best Albums of the 1980s". The album was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2008. In 2003, the album was ranked number 163 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

Prince Rogers Nelson (June 7, 1958 – April 21, 2016) was an American singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, record producer and actor. Prince was renowned as an innovator and was widely known for his eclectic work, flamboyant stage presence and vocal range. He is regarded as the pioneer of Minneapolis sound; his music integrates a wide variety of styles, including funk, rock, R&B, soul, psychedelia and pop.

Prince was born in Minneapolis and developed an interest in music as a young child, writing his first song when he was seven years old. After recording songs with his cousin's band 94 East, 19-year-old Prince recorded several unsuccessful demo tapes before releasing his debut album For You in 1978, under the guidance of manager Owen Husney. His 1979 album Prince went platinum due to the success of the singles "Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad?" and "I Wanna Be Your Lover". His next three records—Dirty Mind (1980), Controversy (1981), and 1999 (1982)—continued his success, showcasing Prince's trademark of prominently sexual lyrics and incorporation of elements of funk, dance, and rock music. In 1984, he began referring to his backup band as The Revolution and released Purple Rain, which served as the soundtrack to his film debut of the same name. A prolific songwriter, Prince in the 1980s wrote songs for and produced work by many other acts, often under pseudonyms.

After releasing the albums Around the World in a Day (1985) and Parade (1986), The Revolution disbanded and Prince released the double album Sign o' the Times (1987) as a solo artist. He released three more solo albums before debuting The New Power Generation band in 1991. He changed his stage name in 1993 to an unpronounceable symbol Prince logo.svg, also known as the "Love Symbol". He then began releasing new albums at a faster pace to remove himself from contractual obligations to Warner Bros.; he released five records between 1994 and 1996 before signing with Arista Records in 1998. In 2000, he began referring to himself as "Prince" again. He released 15 albums after that; his final album, HITnRUN Phase Two, was first released exclusively on the Tidal streaming service on December 11, 2015. On April 21, 2016, he died at his Paisley Park recording studio and home in Chanhassen, Minnesota after suffering flu-like symptoms in the previous weeks.

Prince sold over 100 million records worldwide, making him one of the best-selling artists of all time. He won seven Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and an Academy Award. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004, the first year of his eligibility. Rolling Stone ranked Prince at number 27 on its list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.

CONDITION Descriptions:

I base the condition of each of my Records off of Ebay's Grading System.

• MINT (M) Looks new and unplayed. Very high vinyl luster and no noticeable label defects. Sounds new. With 45rpm records, this does not always mean there is no surface noise at all.

• NEAR MINT (NM) Looks almost new, but has some minor flaws such as a drill hole; unobtrusive writing on label (e.g., an X on a promo copy); minor scuffing on vinyl; minor color flaking on label, or other insignificant flaws that only slightly detract from visual appeal. May have some minor surface noise, but nothing distracting.

• VERY GOOD (VG) There may be light scuffing and some of the original vinyl luster may be lost. The vinyl and label may appear used, but well cared for. Records may have some more obvious flaws that are not visually degrading such as a sticker on the label; more noticeable writing on the label; scuffing and minor scratches on the vinyl; or minor discoloration of the label. There may be very minor warping of the vinyl. There may be a slight scratch not affecting play.

• GOOD (G) Record has visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, minor surface scratches, groove wear, and audible surface noise. Appears well used but not abused. May have a few major flaws, such as scratches, label tears, or stickers, and/or writing.

• FAIR (F) Appears well used and somewhat abused. Audio is not great due to surface noise and scratches. The record may have a stick or a skip. Records in this condition are those you might purchase to fill a hole in your collection until a better copy comes along.

• POOR (P) Well played with little luster and significant surface noise, but still not cracked or broken. Record likely skips and/or sticks. Typically so bad looking that a true “collector” would just toss it out. More useful as a Frisbee. I try not to sell records in this condition.

Payment

PAYPAL is accepted. Payment is expected within 5 days of closed auction. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR PAYPAL ADDRESS IS CORRECT, that you are not using 2 different last names, or two different addresses. Please make sure your Ebay and Paypal addresses match. We do offer combined shipping for multiple lots, so IF YOU ARE PURCHASING MORE THAN ONE ITEM, PLEASE LET US KNOW ...and wait for us to send you an invoice with a combined total and a combined shipping total. DO NOT SEND 2 PAYMENTS...Paypal charges us a transaction fee on each payment you send, so only 1 payment for the combined items will be accepted. You are responsible for sending the correct amount, so pay close attention that you are sending the correct amount. Overpayments will not be refunded...it takes too long to recalculate, refund payments and start from square one.

Shipping

Buyer to pay shipping. I offer combined shipping. By default, I ship to the confirmed PAYPAL address (if thats how you pay) unless otherwise instructed. Actual shipping may vary from what item states, but we try to keep it as close as possible. It could be less or more, based on weight of item and distance it's gotta travel! I try my best to keep your shipping costs very reasonable! Combine multiple items for savings on shipping costs! PLEASE DO NOT SEND PAYMENT UNTIL YOUR TOTAL IS GIVEN FOR MULTI-ITEM PURCHASES.

For international buyers, if I have not included a shipping charge in my item, please feel free to email us for an international shipping quote by using the Ask Seller Question feature. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS SHOULD WAIT FOR AN INVOICE AS SHIPPING CHARGES VARY PER COUNTRY AND SHIPPING MAY BE LESS THAN ACTUALLY LISTED ON EBAY!!!  International buyers, please understand that all customs forms will be filled out properly. Please also be advised that your package may be delayed thru customs and it is common for packages to take several weeks to arrive. Just because you received a package from a different ebay seller in no time flat, ours may not arrive as quickly....and this is not in our control. You are responsible for all fees associated with delivery and purchase of your item such as taxes and the such.
