I just went thro my sistah's (BOOTLEGS) collection and I noticed the O+> name wit that song title beside it, so I took a listen and WOW this shit got me MAD GOOSBUMPS in my stomach when I heard it, I believe its an outtake from the Cristal Ball LP(CD # 4). Its only his voice and an acoustic guitar and its shorter than the Over-produced version, the vox and the guitar playing remineded me alot of 'Crazy you' and 'So blu' I even have doubts that this song was made 4 the 1st LP. Did anybody hear that???

The CD also include 'The morning papers'-LIVE at 87 ??? Man, this man have dezons of OLD NEVA HEARD OF SONGS. But I must admit even tho the CD version is sooo much betta, I still love the live one.

Holla

Yet another thread in regaurds to fake boots and made up tunes. Alas when will the childish games end?

i've (NEVER...oops-edit) heard this version of pink cashmere-only the Hits version...but i did relate to what you said about his 'neva heard before songs'.

P has so many songs, i wonder if we realize how blessed we are to have an artist who is so fruitful and prolific.
The guy lives to make songs, period.

I don't particulary agree w/ his business tactics, but if you really break it down, it's all about getting his recordings out at any cost, even to his popularity. I don't think he cares about it anymore.

Personally i would love to see his music shared amongst the masses--musically, I think he could've been the next Elvis or a combo of the Beatles and Mozart--but more recently P seems content with only dealing with the diehard fans or just the club members.

Maybe the popularity or acceptance he may have wanted came at too big of a cost to his integrity.

I agree, I knew that RAVE have the 80's touch but I sho didn't know that there're OLD songs in that LP(Strange but true' and the self-titled lp) Imagine the TRC ?? Who knows ?? All his glory came from the 80's days,DAMN I wanna put my hands on his non-released cuts.

The 'Pink Cashmere' demo actually dates from around the Lovesexy era.

The outtake you're probably talking about is a rough, less produced, version of the song that ended up on the 'Hits' compilation, but apart from a few polished edges here and there it is essentially the same song.

As far as I know, this is the only 'Pink Cashmere' demo circulating amongst collectors.

Isn't this what you're talking about?

There's no live or studio version of "The Morning Papers" dating from 1987 -that's a plain lie. Even more, I'm nearly sure there's not a bootleg CD listing such a thing. Someone's trying to fool ya?

Right On Jestyr, very resourceful.

Pink Cashmere...I'm hesitant to say is my fav Prince song. There's so many others, but the song just does it for me,ya know.

Blue Cashmere <--hence the name

Yo Jesrtyr-I think that is the one. U guys should CHECK IT OUT its SUPER WORTHY!

Harlepolis said:

OK then - what's the title of that boot, dude?

lickerdipper said:

I'm a woman,,DUDE?

Alright nah, the cd's title is [Eternal Goodies]. Its a 2-CDs set and it does include The 2 songs by Prince, mmm lemme see Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, Kate Bush, Stevie Nicks, Madonna, Roxette and others. Some o' the songs are live, released and some of 'em are even maybe b-sides like that Pink Cashmere !


There U go !!!

TheBluePrince said:

True...does it for me too. I first heard this song when I got the The hits/b-sides, and I was like wooow!!! Prince sings songs like that? That song is really profound, heartfelt, and special. 'Adore' is also on the same CD and when I first heard both, they just blew my mind. I can hear these songs EVERY SINGLE DAY and feel the same way about it. That's how I know they're one of my very favorites.

There's also the remix version of Pink Cashmere. (or is it acapella?). It's on the other side of the Pope promo, but I only ever spun the PC side once. The Pope remix rocks!
