Anybody know if there are any outtakes or B-Sides from this project? Personally I think Borazon and BLB should have been left off but who knows. Saw Borazon in the music store this weekend and it was only a single, no other tracks. Hope other tracks from these sessions show up

first!

i always wanted to say that. sorry Supa.

hehehehe.

I sure hope it contains some good b-sides. some weird stuff.
or at the very least they need to include the SNL version of
Fury as a b-side on the next single.

But two new songs would be cool too. That way I could do an
alternate "3121", omitting "The Dance" and "BBL&B".

"The Dance" me mucho like!

Borazon and BLB are off when I buy my copy

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

i've already tried adding SST/Brand New Orleans instead of BL&B and
that fits in so much nicer.

mind you, i have an original copy of the single and that sounds an
awful lot fuller and better than the SST download.

I'm thinking of adding GlassCutter to it as well.

Well Glasscutter was recorded around the same time as most of 3121, so it
would certainly be a valid addition.

Seems like most of the people who hate bl&b are white. Just wonder if the people that hate that song are really even RnB fans. It's a damn good RnB song.

It aint all that as far as R&B is concerned. Very weak in regards to the other material on 3121

I think the studio version of "BL&B' is kickin'. As opposed to the oppisite for"Te Amo."

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

It's not the best thing on the album by any means, but it's hardly the worse either. I just really like that song. P sounds happy and dare I say it..... in love.

Neither Te Amo or Black Sweat or BL&B had b-sides or even alternate or extended versions. So it's not looking good, is it? I think it's a case of, no one buys singles anymore, so why bother?

I'm sure there are outtakes from this time. But we'll probably never know what those outtakes were - the last studio boot to come out was way back in '97. Maybe a few song titles could be known, but that's about it unless Prince releases a few extra songs on the npgmc at some point like he did with Magnificent, etc.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

ummm...yeah....I don't like that song...AT ALL...

intha916 said:

no you didn't

intha916 said:

i'm sorry but that is a lame remark. i've been a rabid fan since the
release of Lovesexy in 1988 and like almost every song the man has
ever recorded, including the circulating bootlegs.

there may be oh, about 20 songs in total that i don't care for and
Beautiful Loved & Blessed happens to be one of them.

it's not like i hate all his RnB songs simply because i'm white

intha916 said:

as for me, i do like R&B, just not the current crap that's supposed to pass as R&B.. give me the songs in the key of life anytime though

BLAB is a solid tune, musically.. i'm just turned off by the lame beat.. sounds like '80's hiphop.. lol

i doubt it.

BorisFishpaw said:

Thanx Boris.

I think Te Amo and BL&B both fit very nicely into the theme and sequencing of the album. I was afraid that they wouldn't, but they do.

I think you mean A-sides. The B-sides are all on the album.

Payt said:

Right! Give me a 'Songs', 'Here My Dear' or 'Belle' and I'll gladly be called an RnB fan, but these days most of the time I'd have to say I'm not a fan and just throw in some exceptions (rahsaan, d'angelo, van hunt), but I wouldn't place any of those artists up 'there'.

ouch.

GangstaFam said:

Someone was going to say it so I thought I'd get it out of the way before the real haterade begins to flow.

GangstaFam said:

Personally I find them both very distracting. The flow of the album is much much tighter without them

from what i heard it has 12 b-sides

I hope so If not thats okay.
