Is it J.J. saying the "can u help me?"?

Where would one get their hands on Modernaire these days? Is Dez's retrospective CD still available? The only version of the song I ever see available these days is an awful loop from the closing titles of Purple Rain.

dez sounds very careless how the world u gonna lose master tapes and demos versions of classic songs u did during prince times i wouldnt trust nothing he writes in a book if he cant even keep up wit stuff that valueable

kaptainkrunk said:

Actually those tapes are more than likely breaking now. If he did get his hands on them. Those old DAT tapes are terrible.

Hence me saying me "true or not." Even if this isn't true, he's done enough within the past year that warrants my statement.

Man...Hey Go...don't even respond to [snip - CarrieMpls]

I tried to resist -- but, I'm stubborn when it comes to these sort of things.

So now anyone who does not agree with your conspiracy theories or hear say is a [snip - CarrieMpls] ? You have no way of proving any of the statements that you say you heard are true but, you have no trouble putting this second hand gossip on this board.

In addition, in this case Dez has disputed what you are stating. He has stated that he was not able to obtain a record deal.

You really need to check yourself.

laurarichardson said:

Nah, Dez said he had problems obtaining a deal AFTER the mess with WB. And seriously, you're the one who needs to check themselves. U act like some hateful, spiteful, vengeful chick who's pissed cuz nobody on here pays your ass any attention. U flip out over everybody's post. Blaque's posts, SoulAlive's posts and mine. U think ain't nobody noticed that shit? That's why nobody ever corresponds with u cuz nobody wants to be bother with your hateful acting ass.

blackguitaristz said:

I've reminded you about your meds before boy!, GO GET THEM!

violetblues said:

What?..U totally got me twisted with somebody else...I don't know who the hell you're talking about taking meds, but it's certainly not me.

Did you not type this gossip below? Maybe you forgot what you typed and keep the flaming going so you can get kicked off of this board. Plenty of people respond to my post perhaps because I do not go around posting gossip or made up situations out of my imagination.

"I heard some way out shit about what actually had happen. That was one of the reasons I bought Dez's book, to see if this was in there. It wasn't. I heard about 12, 13 years ago from someone who used to work in the A&R department at Warners that P went to Mo Ostin, who he was tight with, and asked if Dez's release could be put off untill later that year, in 84. His reason was because he felt Dez's album would pull sales from his, A6, The Time, Sheila's,"

laurarichardson said:

I haven't forgot shit that I typed and I stand by what I post. Always. That example that u just used I see u conviently left out that I also mentioned that I don't know if what the cat said was true or not. But u leaving that out fits u. And I don't "flame". Never have. Pointing out something that's dead on true about someone isn't "flaming". And I don't hardly need your concern about me getting kicked off this site. The mods read my posts just like they read yours. U think they don't see that all of your responses to EVERYBODY's posts are filled with jealousy and hatefulness? ....They do. So, u need to be more concerned with YOU getting booted off this site than me.

blackguitaristz said:

So you don't remember typing this either
"Man...Hey Go...don't even respond to [snip - CarrieMpls]"

I do not start my threads or end them by insulting people that is what you and few others do. Up until now I have not been petty enought to complain but, I will from here on so you may be booted off.

I am also not going to copy your gossip in full because you know what you typed. If you do not know something is true why put it on the board at all.

laurarichardson said:

Sure, I remember typing that. I'm a big enough cat to apologize for name calling. So dig, I'm sorry for calling u a "nutcase". Ironically, for as long as I've been on this site, that's the first time I've ever called somebody out of thier name. And that's simply because your one dimensional posts are totally boring, very predictable and agin I gotta say, hateful. U don't EVER have anything remotely interesting to add to ANYONE'S post, so all u do is critisize everybody else's post. That's ALL u do. U sit up and lie in wait....waiting to chime in with some negative bullshit. U do this to EVERYONE. So, if u sincerly want to address something, address that. Like I stated before, I'm not the only cat on here who feels this way. I'm just the only cat that's saying it. And I NEVER written a thread where I start off or end it by insulting someone. Nor have I ever noticed this from anyone else.

laurarichardson said:

I can careless if u complain about me calling u out on the shit u do. It's not news to the mods. Like I've mentioned, they see it just like I and everybody else does. So again, you're the one that needs to be concerned about getting kicked off. And "gossip" as u call it? That's your only defense?...This whole forum AND Prince Music and More is filled with "gossip". Hearsay...second hand info...whatever,...Many people discuss hearing about something that they've heard or read. But u have a problem with it cuz you're on this jealousy trip. That's all it is. Why else would it bother u? I've read where other people have posted about things that they have heard or was told and they repeated it. So u need to get off that. It's so obviously one sided with u too because the only time u trip over someone's post is when it's something that's not in favor of Prince. I could post that someone told me that P had the greatest material that hasn't ever been released. And they said that they wished he would release it....U wouldn't have a problem with that. That's gossip, hearsay, second hand info...What's the difference? Because it's something that's favorable to Prince. You're so EASY to read.

Yeah,Laura you seriously need to get a grip.You need to drop the attitude and stop fighting with people over stuff that they write.I've seen you do this many,many times.If someone writes something negative about Prince,you bend over backwards trying to discredit them.If you have a problem with gossip,then you shouldn't be on the Internet at all.You never contribute to threads in a positive way.It's like you have this chip on your shoulder.Get off your high horse and stop taking things so seriously!

I am not fighting with anyone. I am stating my opinion. You are free to skip over my post if you don't like it and I will skip over the boring tired b.s gossip. In addtion, I post about other topics but, your to busy reading the gossip non-sense to pay attention to anything else. Since I never see you on any other topics but gossip and haterade.

I am sorry I do not thing P is the personification of evil and I have other things to do with my time than sit around worrying about some poor damsel that is in distress or some broke has been musician who is sitting around crying because P runined his carreer 25 years ago.

"waiting to chime in with some negative bullshit."

Just about all your post concerning Prince are negative. I am one of the few that calls you on it and that is the problem. Get over it.

blackguitaristz said:

Yea right I am hateful for calling your out on your unsupportive gossip and hearsay !!! Your not above being questioned.

laurarichardson said:

laurarichardson said:

I don't know if you're aware of this,but Blackguitaristz has worked with Morris Day and Andre Cymone before.He has hung out with these guys and shared stories with them.I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss his comments as "unsupported gossip and hearsay",since he has actually talked to people who were THERE! Furthermore,his threads and comments are always filled with alot of great information,insight and details,which is more than can be said for your hate-filled,childish posts.You never engage in a conversation in a positive,friendly way.You just jump into the conversation,accusing folks of lying and making up shit.

laurarichardson said:

I guess you don't spend any time in the Prince:Music and More forum,do you? If you did,you would know that Blackguitaristz is always over there,starting meaningful discussions about Prince's music,particularly the '1999' album and that era.Unlike you,he actually comes up with interesting discussions and his threads are very popular,getting alot of views and feedback.He's not all "negative"! You,on the other hand,spend all your time trying to discredit and dismiss any comments that you think are anti-Prince.You're more paranoid than Prince is,lol.You need to chill out,relax and stop acting like a prissy prima donna.It's very annoying.

laurarichardson said:

If you wanna bring up comments that another Orger made,let's bring up a quote that you once made about Wendy and Lisa.You dismissed them as "the carpet-munching duo" That's how you operate: attack and dismiss ex-proteges,ex-bandmembers...basically,anybody is not "down" with Prince anymore.You've said mean things about some of his other proteges too.

laurarichardson said:

That was a joke right? Because blackguitaristz is definitely one of the, if not the most, informative and interesting people on this board and he knows his stuff when it comes to P especially the pre-purple rain era.

SoulAlive said:

I also apologized for typing that, as I was more irritated with the fact that orgers give these two too much credit. I also have a problem with Wendy commenting that P was hanging around too many black people and the fact that orgers give her a past for that ridiculous comment.

I do not really have an issue with any of the other protégés. I just do not think much of people who bitch 20 years later when they no longer have their finger in the well. Seems a little suspect to me and I realize that P was/is no angel but people need to take some personal responsibility for hooking up with him in the first place.

Now a days the whole of our society whines and bitches. I find it tiresome.

Most of it is hearsay and almost all oldtimers know about backward messages, and some of the things that were going on in the fanbase back in the 80's.

SoulAlive said:

Yes, I am so paranoid I have nothing to do but worry about comments on a message board. Get a grip. Everybody is free to agree or disagree and some of you cannot take any disagreement at all. Which is sad. I have said on more than one occasion that some of P's antics are mental, self destuctive and greedy. However, I do not think for one minute that is the personification of Satan. Some of you go overboard.

laurarichardson said:

That's a lie and u and everybody else on here knows it. U ain't called me on shit. All u have done is made yourself look bad and in the process, you've exposed yourself even more for what you've already been called on; A very envious, jealous & hateful person. Period.
