Short answer.... No there isn't.

Long answer...
All of the songs on the original Crystal Ball are available either on official releases or bootlegs

here's the tracklist;

CRYSTAL BALL

side one
REBIRTH OF THE FLESH 4:51
PLAY IN THE SUNSHINE 5:05
HOUSEQUAKE 4:38
THE BALLAD OF DOROTHY PARKER 4:04

side two
IT 5:10
STARFISH & COFFEE 2:51
SLOW LOVE 4:18
HOT THING 5:39

side three
CRYSTAL BALL 10:28
IF I WAS YOUR GIRLFRIEND 4:54
ROCKHARD IN A FUNKY PLACE 4:32

side four
THE BALL 4:34
JOY IN REPETITION 4:53
STRANGE RELATIONSHIP 4:04
I COULD NEVER TAKE THE PLACE OF YOUR MAN 6:31

side five
SHOCKADELICA 6:12
GOOD LOVE 5:12
FOREVER IN MY LIFE 3:38
SIGN O’ THE TIMES 5:02

side six
THE CROSS 4:46
ADORE 6:29
IT’S GONNA BE A BEAUTIFUL NIGHT 8:59

Most tracks appear on Sign O' The Times, with the exception of...
Rebirth of the flesh - remains unreleased (though a rehearsal version was made available as a download on NPGMC)
Good Love - appeared on the soundtrack to Bright Lights, Big City. A slightly edited version also turned up on the 1998 Crystal Ball CD, as did the title track.
Rockhard In A Funky Place - appeared on the Black Album
The Ball - had a complete lyric change, and became eye No on Lovesexy
Joy In Repetition - appeared on Graffiti Bridge
Shockadelica - appeared as the b-side to If I Was Your Girlfriend (the 7" edit also ended up on The Hits/The B Sides)

Not that I've heard of....
There are some segued versions out there, but I'm pretty sure they've all been done by fans. Unfortunately there don't appear to be any crystal clear quality versions of Rebirth Of The Flesh or The Ball.

Downloadable from Audiogalaxy: very good (crystal clear, yet not crystal quality clear that is true) versions of both songs...
