The Purple File

NO TROLL THREADS! NO SOLICITING FOR BOOTLEGS! Discussion is fine, so long as the bootleg is not being promoted e.g. pre-release; requests/offers to share or copy, and links to download or bootleg sites are not. Posting Prince and associated artist videos from sites such as YouTube is also not allowed. Posts of this nature will be deleted and repeat offenders will be first warned, and then banned. Troll threads, fake tracklists, and attention seeking rumor threads will be also be swiftly dealt with. These rules are strictly enforced! -- luv4u

Has anyone heard of this bootleg? If so what songs are on it?

I saw a reference in the last couple of days to "The Purple File," but they weren't talking about an actual boot, just a group of files that started circulating back in March. The original thread discussing the batch was shut down (I think because of requests for links), so a new thread was started:

.

http://prince.org/msg/7/415042?&pg=1

.

I'm not sure if there's a list of all the files on that thread. The original thread had one. But if you wanted to wade through it, you might find one. There were a few interesting full tracks, but the leak was also extremely frustrating, since much of it was tantalizing but extremely brief snippets.

.

I think a lot of the tracks wound up on Blast from the Past 3.0, but I'm not sure.

I thought everyone was referring to this collection as "The Purple Harvest"?

I saw at least one location where people had material from this collection that they were calling the Purple File--but yes, it's the one many people are calling Purple Harvest. I actually said that in my first attempt at a response, but then I hit the wrong button and cancelled that post.
