Prince Gett Off

Hello,
I remember a radio version of the song Gett Off that was mixed up with DMSR and other song clips from Prince. Does anyone know how to get a copy of that? Is it sold anywhere and how do I know it's not like the gett off sings with gangster glam and violet the organ grinder?

Thanks Ya'll

Oh my God. The rhythm track was based on Alphabet Street! I was wondering if anyone else had heard this or if I had just made it up in my head! I had a cassette of it from when it aired on KISS FM in Los Angeles, summer 1991. I will do a search tonight for the tape.

Thank you for remembering this!

I think Gett Off really captured Prince's vibe during that whole time. Hedonism on vinyl and I loved it. 23 positions, now that's bears repeating.
I'm an org elitist... totally unapproachable.

I have every released remix possible 4 that joint. This was probably an unofficial DJ mix.

This version that I mentioned I've only heard on the radio. I've never heard it on any cd release or any unofficial cd.

I remember this song. There was a whole videotape, that had different versions of the song and my favorite "Violet, the organ-grinder" It was awesome. Prince had on rollerblade at one point...there was chant too
M P L S ! Who'll turn the mutha out"
That was the shit. I should go dig that up
