I've finally gotten the chance to listen to some of these tracks and, I must say, these are some of the greatest that our hero has ever produced. "Wonderful Ass", for example, is just Prince at his coolest. Surely some of y'all out there agree, right?

YES YES YES...

"Visions"...the Lisa Coleman intrumental intro is beautiful...the best songs from SOTT...the funky "Witness 4 the Prosecution"...

"Wonderful Ass" is not on my version...

Mine has..

Visions..Dream Factory...Train...Dorothy Parker...It...Strange Relationship...Slow Love..Starfish & Coffee..I Could Never Take the Place...Sin O the Times...Crystal Ball...Place In Heaven..Last Heart...Witness...Movie Star...The Cross...All My Dreams...

***Supposedly the FINAL configuration of the DF sessions on 7/18/86***

Extra disc has alternate verions and outtakes:

Its A Wonderful Day...Teacher Teacher...Sexual Suicide...Power Fantastic...In A Large Room W/ No Light...Place In Heaven...Witness...Crystal Ball..Data Bank...Girl O My Dreams...Cant Stop This Feeling I Got...We Can Funk (a GREAT version!)...Big Tall Wall

how can i obtain a copy of this? was it an import?

No...it was a boot I found a paid some bucks for...but very worth it!

had Prince, W&L on the cover.....

very cool!

This is Thunderball's version of this unreleased album. Sabotage later followed with their own "remastered" edition (this time minus the disc with the bonus tracks).

Don't be fooled by the "remastered" claim, however: Sabotage's version might be slightly louder but is actually sonically inferior to Thunderball's version.
