Graffiti Bridge I dont know if this has been mentioned on here before but I was watching the film last nite and in the part where its the morning after Aura got drunk and gets woken by Prince - and shes reading some of his music sheets and one of the song titles was 'Rave unto the joy fantastic' this shocked me a little as that song wasnt released until around 10 years later???? how fantastic he can hold onto his music never defy time by holding onto them for so long..
Am I right here or did my eyes deceive me or have I got the song wrong?? answers on a postcard please.....

The song dates back to at least 1989. There's samples of it scattered within the Batdance remixes.
I think that prior to the Batman album, he was planning a "techno gospel" album called Underground. I think. Boris will know for sure. | |

'Rave Unto The Joy Fantastic' was originally going to be the follow-up album
to 'Lovesexy'. Then Prince got involved with the Batman album and it got shelved. (there were several configurations for the '89 Rave albums made) | |

ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift. |

It is also a totally different composition to "Dance With The Devil". . [Edited 4/30/06 4:40am] "You don't frighten us, English pig dogs. Go and boil your bottoms, sons of a silly person." | |

Yep - just to be clear - the 'dance with evil' subtitle is what Prince has scrawled on the 'score' - I'm not absolutely certain it says 'evil'. . ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift. |

Seriously, how awesome does that make Prince. I mean like Rave or NOT, you have to admit, it sounded futuritic-ish in 2000, let alone in '89, forget it! | |

If you read the relevant section of this thread, you'll get a sense of how it's believed it went: the two projects either evolved concurrently or one into another: http://www.prince.org/msg/7/116565 .
