woah, prince had recently bought his music back off warner brothers...
maybe they need to warn a brother that they hire celeb whackers...
anywho, i just found out prince was an icke fan.
pretty awesome video this. (nothing to do with celeb whackers who dont warner brother)
Lol@ T$A and graveyard shifter having a dick waving contest over who knows where Prince's house is better.
famous outtake. recorded live in 1983
you can almost smell the purple rain album in there ...
'Rebirth Of The Flesh' was recorded in 1988 and was meant to be the opening track of the 'Camille' album (with sped up vocals like on the famous 'U Got The Look'). Prince abandoned the album in favor of 'Crystal Ball' (the original project, not the official outtakes collection with the same name). 'Rebirth Of The Flesh' was gonna end up on this triple disc album
but the Crystal Ball album wasn't released since Warner Brothers was afraid such a large album wouldn't sell well. Prince then cut down this project to two discs - this is the Sign Of The Times album you all know ...
http://www.princevault.com/index.php?title=Main_Page was offline for a few days (too many people trying to visit), but is up again. you can discover songs by first letter there and see if any of the song titles you are unfamiliar with are on youtube now
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unrele...rince_projects contains an overview of all of Prince's unreleased projects. I would recommend looking for Dream Factory in particular. this album is where some of Sign Of The Times' songs were originally going to be placed. this project predates the 'Camille' album mentioned above
as you can see the Sign Of The Times album was a long time in the making
for something completely different, listen to this 'Parade' outtake. I first heard this on the 'Charade' bootleg in pretty terrible sound quality. the version below is in great quality though and really conveys the atmosphere Prince was trying to conjure up ... it sounds almost like a song meant for a horror soundtrack
positively upbeat though is the following song from the same period, also meant for 'Parade' (and thus for the 'Under The Cherry Moon' movie)
there is only one official collection of outtakes available (with perfect sound quality). it was composed by Prince himself and is called 'Crystall Ball' (1998), named after the scrapped album). it consists of 3 discs and the songs from the eighties on there like 'Sexual Suicide', 'Dream Factory' and 'Crystal Ball' are superb. it also includes the hilarious 'Movie star' (also meant for 'Parade'), which is D'Angelo's favorite Prince outtake. finally it also contains the weird 'Cloreen Baconskin', which is a funk workout between Prince and Morris Day from The Time. you know what album to hunt down now ...
if the songs 'Sexual Suicide' & 'Dream Factory' turn up on youtube I'll post them here as well
I just listened to his songs Head, Erotic City, New Position, When Doves Cry and 1999 on Youtube. I saw 1999 and Gett Off videos on Youtube and I never saw them before. I'm glad I don't have to buy his videos dvd from Amazon.com because it's expensive LOL. I also don't have to buy his greatest hits album from Amazon.com because it's expensive since his songs are now on Youtube LOL.
it's uncertain whether all of these vids will remain on youtube though
lawyers could either be letting this slide for the moment or could be overwhelmed by the vast amount being posted right now
earlier today full albums were being posted but I noticed they got taken down
to everyone, enjoy the Prince youtube renaissance while it lasts

Lee, do you know where to get The Work and The Undertaker in mp3 aside from ripping songs from youtube? Or any other source for unreleased material?
I listened to Lotus Flow3r today (second disc only). Really quite enjoyed it. Will check out more.
Workaholic. Pain pills, too. This is what they're saying. Either way, the man enjoyed his job.Quote:

One of my fav tracks from him :

it's such a loss for this world. One of the last true genius. Perhaps a Sign of these times.
The Undertaker http://uploaded.net/file/5n974w0z (didn't DL it myself to check but this site http://megasearch.co/link/526752-otk...f3qcib1gly-rar led me to this DL). lots of other Prince albums there too as you can seeQuote:

here's some background on that release http://forum.phish.net/forum/show/1347302787 (check the first post)
you'll have a better chance of finding Work It 2.0 (better sound quality than the first set of 34 discs) by looking for a torrent. I don't do torrents anymore personally but it would really surprise me if you couldn't find it there
you can DL Prince concerts and soundchecks here. contains some outtakes too (scroll back to April 23 for the latest batch of leaked outtakes) http://purplesanctuary.blogspot.be/ this blogspot uses wetransfer so don't wait too long to have a look if you're interested. his penultimate concert is up for DL there now too. I posted a link to his final concert earlier on in this thread
glad to hear you enjoyed itQuote:
