Lovesexy (Remix)

Was there actually a remix of Lovesexy that was part of the "Glam Slam" single? I just found an 8-minute version of this...and I can't really tell if it's the real deal or not. Can anybody confirm?

not part of the "Glam Slam" single (that i know of)
but "Lovesexy" was planned to be released and remixes were made
i'm sure someone will come around and tell us which are circulating, if any
and what they sound like

there was a prince documentary around the time of 'lovesexy' - i can't rememebr the name of it but i think it was made by the bbc... and it had lots of tantalising little glimpses of prince recording, rehearsing, etc.

one of those glimpses was prince at the control desk, working on a mix of 'lovesexy' which was different from the album version. the scene was only about 5 seconds long but it sounded INCREDIBLE. totally frustrating!!!

anyone else remember this?

Yep. The show was called 'Behind The Beat' and it was part of the DEF2 programming strand on BBC2.

Are you talking about the track 'Lovesexy' or the track 'Glam Slam'?

'Lovesexy' was never released as a single, and no remixes of this track have
ever leaked out. (it was going to be a single at one point, and remixes were
made for it though, but other than the brief snippet included on the BBC
documentary, the remixes have never surfaced).

'Glam Slam' was released as a single back in '88, and an 8:53 extended remix was
officially released on CD Single & 12" (it was remixed by Shep Pettibone).

I can imagine the last 10 seconds of the live version on the lovesexy tour of 'lovesexy' (are you still with me?) should've been part of the remix, some amazing 10 seconds there...

I love the song, also the live version, but the last 10 (make it 6) seconds are just... razz if a redbull drink could make noise it would sound like that

...uhm, well I wasn't aware of the story, but then again, I don't know all.
But yeah, it was new to me, so I can erase it from my harddisc now?

By the way, the remix for Eye No isn't really a remix, it's an earlier demo called The Ball.

Its out in the wide public domain of unreleased songs. It shouldn't be much harder to find that The Ball. The remix is incomplete by the way.....and personally, its not very good! smile

I like it! it sounds so twistedly different and has completely different vocals from what i can hear (maybe those are just the backgorund ones put to the fore)... not so much a remix as another completely different version! I also like that it's not a "dance" remix, it's a "push this into really weird conceptual territory" remix.

After listening to it for a while, yea, it does sound fanmade.

If you want to take a swing at it, let me know.

Since it sounded nothing like the "Glam Slam" or "Escape" 12", I just had to be sure.

Now you got me thinking about the extended version of Glam Slam especially the ending of it. Going to dust off the record.

A Musical Portrait? Was shown I think on Channel 4. It was made by Albert Magnoli.
