Has anyone heard the two outtakes from this list called machine and hey lover? I know that machine was on the demo he used to get his record deal in 1977. This is the story I saw on the net one time, about hey lover.
They said that Soft and wet at first didn't have the line Hey lover! in the verses and that when he went to record for you, he made an outtake of hey lover, but mixed it into soft and wet. Is this true? I have heard two older versions of soft and wet and neither of them say hey lover.

Hey Lover is a 41 second 'song' and sounds nothing like Soft And Wet

From the rest you mentioned i only heard 1,2,7,8

Where did you get those other titles from ?
I have all his studio outtakes starting from 76

The ones without a bootleg title are uncirculating.

so are those supposedly on 'studio nights' only , circulating ?

Well, yeah, otherwise they wouldn't be on the bootleg would they

Circulating = Widely available, on bootlegs/through trading (and these days on p2p)

Uncirculating = Not available on bootleg/through trading, but a few high-up collectors may have them for private use (which we wouldn't know unless they told us) - To all intents and purposes, uncirculating.

ok , i have the Revelations 2.1 DVD which i thought contains all outtakes

Dewrede said:

Nope.
Loads, but not all.

ok , i reckon the only few missing are the ones mentioned here ?
(at least i hope)

Dewrede said:

thanks

What about machine? Has anyone heard that?

(echo..... echo.....).....

It's not circulating! So unless there's someone who has it privately, and they decide to describe it (unlikely, because then they'll be getting org notes left right and center from newbies begging for it), then your plea will fall on deaf ears.


Here's what The Vault says about Machine:

Well, how did this guy know what Hey Lover sounds like? Anyway did they say if machine was rock or funk?

Hey Lover's on the Revelations 2.1 DVD
It's really nothing more than a noisy snippet thing with guitars and Prince singing
hey Lover , i really wanna love you , hey lover

The quote from the book was the entire comment on that track.

Like the remixes for Lovesexy or 3 Nigs watching a Kung-Fu Movie.
