Box O' Chocolates

This is a "new release" as it were and worthy of discussion. Please abide by the rules and keep the discussion to the songs themselves and no discussion of how or where to get it. We don't need updates on your search or where you are searching. Just the songs and collection. Thanks.

Remember, when in doubt look for the gaudy colored flashing rules and let them guide you...

ABSOLUTELY NO SOLICITING FOR BOOTLEGS.You want to discuss them? That's fine - but NO OFFERS TO COPY, NO REQUESTS TO COPY, NO "WHERE CAN I GET", etc. NO POSTING OF LINKS TO THESE SITES EITHER. Please be aware that the moderators here strictly enforce this rule.




01 - Witness 4 the Prosecution
02 - Movie Star
03 - A Place in Heaven
04 - The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker
05 - Starfish and Coffee
06 - Girl O' My Dreams
07 - Cant Stop This Feeling I Got
08 - We Can Funk
09 - Data Bank
10 - Wonderful Ass
11 - All Day All Night

All sourced from low generation tapes... NOTHING has been ripped from existing bootlegs.
You won’t hear a better version unless the purple vault is opened.

No money was exchanged for these songs... Never pay for unauthorised recordings!
Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it.

I still don't know why Dorothy and Starfish are on it. Are they earlier versions?

I'm just curious...why is THIS boot so hard to find? What makes it worse or more egregious than the other stuff out there?

Where'd the other thread go?

Anyway - this is an EXCELLENT release. The sound quality on this is superb - make no mistake, these are the BEST versions of these songs available.

"Wonderful Ass" in this good quality makes this worth having alone, and "We Can Funk" sounds better than I've ever heard it before, too.

I meant that links have already been taken down, etc. It just seems odd to me compared to the ones that are still standing all over the place.

I own the old LP vinyl bootleg from 1987/88 (?)... this was called "Chocolate Box" long before the recent song from MPLS - and those 2 songs were included back then.

"Chocolate Box", LP vinyl,

Side A:

1. Movie Star
2. Heaven (= A Place In Heaven)
3. Starfish & Coffee
4. Ballad Of Dorothy Parker
5. Joy In Repetition

Side B:

1. Pretty Face (= Data Bank?)
2. Girl O' My Dreams
3. I Can't Stop
4. We Can Fall (= We Can Funk)
5. All Day All Night

I'm no expert in boots, but I think this new release is a way to make this old bootleg "perfect", with finally fantastic sound?

Good idea to go back to the old boots and rework them with high grade versions.

I always love those old boots, Crucial, Charade, Purple Underground.

Choclate box was one of my first boots, I had it on tape summer of 1990, thats when I started to get hardcore, I even missed the England world Cup quarter final because I had Prince tickets.
