Yes, there are.

Love Sign
So Dark
Tell Me How U Wanna B Done(released as part of a remix on The Purple Medley CD)
Pussy Control
Get Loose
Good Love(I include it because he cut part of it from the original track on Bright Lights, Big City OST)

All of these tracks were worthless for what the Crystal Ball was supposed to be.

what was that one with the description "waiting for carmen elektra to give clearence for the video"? the song sucked i was like great lol


I just looked this up. It was on "Tell Me How U Wanna B Done." It actually reads, "Video is available upon clearance from Carmen's conscience."

I'd buy that for a dollar.

I could have done without the remixes. I also hated the editing of great tracks like "Crucial" and "Good Love." But the one thing that really got me was the segues of songs going into the other songs. disbelief And whoever was the idiot who decided where the tracks should have started between the songs should be shot. Sounds like it was done on some guy's home computer who used Windows Sound Recorder to edit the tracks for the CDs.

The editing and segues are absurd.We can hear "Jam Of The Year" (a 1996 song) right at the beginning of "Movie Star" (a 1985 song)...lol...that makes no sense at all.

I really like most of the material. I just wish that:

1. It was organized differently
2. The discs were longer
3. He'd do another one and give us some more damn outtakes!


I completely agree with this. I, too, think the song order leaves much to be desired. And I wish songs like Dream Factory and Crystal Ball weren't edited. Also, when I heard P was releasing a 3-disc set of "unreleased" material, I got VERY excited. I kept thinking to myself - I'm FINALLY going to hear songs I'd only read about until then, songs like I Wonder, Moonbeam Levels, Rebirth Of The Flesh, etc. But as another orger said, most of the material on here was post '86 stuff. Still, I'm very happy to have Aknowledge Me, Days O Wild, and The Ride.

Oh, and I like Hide The Bone. (Should I hide myself?)
