My mate just pointed out that there is a little bit of Linn beat at the very end of the song "I Don't Wanna Leave You", it comes in completely unexpected. It sounds like it ended up there by mistake, very weird! I had never noticed it before, because I never play that song. But it is a cool little beat, possibly one of the first time a Linndrum was used by Prince? Does anyone know what track this beat belongs to? Or has any more information?

Its supposed to be there..the change-up. Its akin to Sly doing changeups in song endings such as Stand.

That is one of my favorite songs including the end change..I wish that end change could go on for 5 more minutes.

It is a really cool little part. It does sound like it wants to be a song all of it's own.

Its a "MasterPiece"....

according 2 the aldbum sleeve it says jesse johnson plays the drums on that one which is questionable being its a prince linn drum machine being used and i dont think jesse ever used one in any of his solo work

Jesse used linn drums all over his solo work I thought

One of my favorite stand out Time tracks

Prince's camp has done this on a number of songs

From a lot of interviews I read where Prince talks concerning Jesse Johnson and how he filled in a few times for Morris during the PR period when Morris left, leaves me believing Jesse did do more on the 2nd album than credited, he definately did more work on the 3rd

back then Prince had a dream team of musicians in his band and protege bands, incl Davide Z

they all knew Prince sound and could help him take his vision to the next level.

There is no way I would have let Jesse Johnson out of my camp

Prince obviously groomed Jesse to be an even greater musician & believed in him, I mean Jesse was living with Prince during his most prolific time & he gave Jesse his recording soundboard. So he knew Jesse was destined to be a star. Plus I remember an article in the 80's that said Prince bought several copies of Jesse's debut gold album Jesse Johnsons Review.Devine intervention is what made Jesse leave. It was destined to happen. Prince removing Jesse's name from writing credit was a way to make him stand on his own...

THAT song is THE SH*T!!!!!! They should add it 2 the lineup!!!!!! I asked Monte Moir once WHY They don't play it & He just shrugged His shoulders.........

i think now in all of em careers they have pretty much proved they can make it own their own or whatever thoughts they had gleaming in the mind i would still love if jesse and prince were 2 work 2gether again. fuck the egos and all that jazz real music deserves 2 b heard cuz i think jesse is wasting his time with dangelo a prince wanna be when he could b slicing it up with the real prince.i would love 4 him jimmy and terry 2 work 2gether.they all still talk and see eachother from time 2 time even jam 2gether so hell do some work

I always think the are or will be some kind of extended version

even on Mountains, it changed up to a nice smooth groove (on album cut)
