I Would Die 4 U-The 30 Minutes Long Version

I neva appreciated IWD4U till I heard this piece. I still don't really fantasize the released version simply becoz it doesn't have that psychedelic instrumental in the long version. Whew,,,now that was a hot one indeed,,,lil' abit of everything. I love the sick/twisted sound esp at the end and Prince when "Gimme some o' that space,," something, I didn't catch the rest.

Sheila E. was doing the mean do with her bad ass self in that joint. But I'd love 2 know who did all these crazy Piano solos? Was that Prince? It sounded abit like Herbie Hencock.

Anyway I love that piece, how about you? smile

Love is just like the faucet
It turns off and on
Sometimes when you think it's on baby
It has turned off and gone

It's great to have finally yeah - but to be honest I find it too strung-out to listen to in one go

I much prefer the 12" mix - which incidently was edited from the 30minute marathon. Now that is tight kick ass choon with latin samba galore!

Yeah, in case you didn't know, it's a bootleg. Maybe the person thought it was some kind of offical release that they couldn't find on amazon. Just in case. 30 mins. Not a bit excessive?

What is the source of the 30 minute version? Is it from a concert? Is is a live studio jam? Is it a studio version?

Life it ain't real funky unless you got that orgPop.

the 30 min+ version was recorded in october 1984
during rehearsals for the Purple Rain tour. It
was edited down to about 10 minutes for the 12"
release.
