Prince - “One Nite Alone ... Live” (NPG Records)
For the first time in his 20-plus-year recording career, the ever-eccentric Prince releases an official live recording. The three-disc set comprises two-discs-worth of material recorded during last spring’s “One Nite Alone” tour. The third CD features post-show jam sessions with guests such as funk veteran George Clinton. More information is available at Prince’s official website.

Various artists - “Gangs of New York” (Interscope)
Interscope’s soundtrack for Martin Scorsese’s forthcoming film--starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Daniel Day Lewis--features the single “The Hands that Built America,” a track that first appeared on the group’s recently released “Best of 1990-2000.” Other artists featured include Peter Gabriel and composer Howard Shore. Shore, who is also behind the recently released “Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers” soundtrack, contributes several compositions to “Gangs of New York.”

S Club - “Don’t Stop Movin’” (Universal)
This young pop group is vaguely familiar to American audiences due to its cable television series, which has aired on the Disney Network and on ABC Family. The group is a much bigger deal in the U.K., where this album entered the charts at No. 1 more than a year ago, and was named Record of the Year by the public at the 2002 Brit Awards.
