Tambourine's intro is a total rip from Jimi's 'little mss lover', hope he's paid the Hendrix estate some $$.

Man i've heard P USE some influences on songs but this is just a straight out copy from the great Mitch Mitchell intro solo. Go check it out, the CD is 'Axis Bold as love'. By the way the track does a damn site more than Tambourine ever did!.

I think you may have your wires crossed. The song that uses the drums from LML is Tick Tick Bang, not Tambourine. wink

Didn't we have this before...Tambourine was merely inspired by Sheila's drumming, Sexual Suicide was a beat Sheila showed Prince and then recorded it himself. Both is hardly "composed by Sheila E", especially because we don't know if Prince changed anything about the SS beat or not.

Someone on some thread mentioned that you didn't legally have to give credits for samples until 1992. As digital recording and sampling entered the industry, they had to get some rules sorted out. Before that, it was pretty much a free-for-all.

The Vault has this to say: "Unusually, two of the songs rely on acoustic drums sampled from other artists' records: the drum track of 'Tick, Tick, Bang' was taken from Jimi Hendrix's 'Little Miss Lover' (from Axis: Bold As Love, 1967) and 'Release It' lifted the drums from Tower of Power's 'Squib Cakes' (from Back To Oakland, 1974). Prince sampled a portion of the songs and turned the drum beat into a loop. Prince actually sampled a low-quality cassette recording of 'Little Miss Lover,' being unable to locate a CD quickly enough. Prince didn't credit the two songs he sampled."

Yeah; p only sampled from 89-92 without crediting and it was only a few tracks.

I don't know why a genius like prince would need the sample? wink

You still don't have to credit a sample on a CD sleeve. It depends on what the original writer stipulates.
