i still prefer the mix of I Wonder U that's on Parade. it would be great to hear alternate mixes on a Parade Remaster though. Like the Let It Be Naked album.

I dig those mixes of I Wonder U. So what was the last song Clare worked on for Prince? I was lead to believe that they never met.

They indeed never met, Brent Fischer stated this to me.

The last song that was released with Clare's work on it, I'm not too sure.... perhaps Te Amo Corazon? Clare's not credited on Planet Earth, Lotusflow3r, or 20TEN, and of course he passed away at the beginning of 2012.

It's possible that there may be other songs he worked on since then, but they simply haven't been released.

There's also The Ladder/Our Destiny.

Fischer didn't arrange that one. That was a Wendy & Lisa arrangement. The Family was the first and only 1985 Paisley arrangement.

Te Amo Corazon was Fischer, but I think there have been a lot of arrangements/orchestrations from years past that Prince has reused or incorporated (sampled) into new songs (obviously still giving Fischer credit on the new song or album). That one in particular reminds me way too much of some specific scenes in UTCM. I could be wrong. If P owned the orchestrations after they'd been sent to him, it seems likely that he could reuse them however he wants.
