Hardcore Prince Question

Remember the claymation show 'Dick Spanner' from 1986?
Did it include audio samples from the 'Charade' or 'Black Album' bootlegs?

There was a bit at the end of every Dick Spanner episode where you could hear what sounded like a squeaky child-like voice saying 'bizarre' or something like. I'm sure exactly the same 'sample' is on one of Prince's songs (can't think which one right now, maybe Lovesexy?) but which came first or whether it was just a keyboard sample floating around for anyone to use, I don't know...

having researched I think the sample is on 'All My Dreams' which was made a little earlier than 1986 I think.

Yeah, at the beginning of All My Dreams. But there's also a very similar sample (sped up?) at the end of Bob/George.

I never knew Dick Spanner was made by Gerry Anderson
