i'm guessing it's just for this song, and there will be a LOT of names in the credits for the next album.

Ricky Salas? Hmm, intersting



What happened to Rhonda Smith?

I really don't think Prince would let go of John Blackwell or Rhonda Smith. I can see them moving on but not him letting them go. They are awsum musicians.

P seems to have done a lot of travelling over the past year or so, I'm guessing he worked with different musicians in different places.

I can't be sure this is accurate - so please correct

"Upon returning to the states, Josh had to prematurely conclude his tour with the play Friends and Lovers for the once in a lifetime chance to work with Prince. Between January and April 2005, Josh became a member of a unit Prince strategically organized. Frank McComb, Jairus Mozee, Cora Dunham, Ashley (Tamar) Davis, Ben Mauro and Tim Stewart also had the pleasure of jamming with Prince. From the NAACP Image Awards to the Academy Awards-and not to mention the Oscars-this unit was the highlight of all of Prince’s major after parties. ?uest, Stevie Wonder, Herbie Hancock, Anthony Hamilton, Rachelle Ferrell, John Blackwell and Sheila E were among the many that sat in and jammed at the parties."
