Early 80's demos of Raspberry Beret and Baby I'm A Star From Princevault:
Raspberry Beret- The track was originally recorded in Prince's home studio, Kiowa Trail Home Studio, in Spring/Summer 1982. Basic tracks for the album version were recorded in August 1984 at Flying Cloud Drive Warehouse, Eden Prairie, MN, USA.
Baby I'm A Star- Prince first recorded a studio version of the song in late 1981-1982 at Prince's Kiowa Trail Home Studio, Chanhassen, MN, USA. Prince and the Revolution later recorded the song live on 3 August 1983 at First Avenue, Minneapolis, MN, USA (at the same concert where I Would Die 4 U and Purple Rain were also recorded).
Has anyone heard these? I imagine it would be fascinating to listen to early incarnations of 2 of his most beloved songs.

The demo of Baby I'm A Star has been circulating widely for a couple of years (I'm sure longer in private circles.) It's in shitty quality unfortunately but still worth tracking down. I prefer the album version myself but the demo is is still pretty good and interesting to trace how the early idea evolved. |
