From his first, fleshed-out instrumentals up to his latest experiments in music; PROPS!

I just started assembling his instrumental stuff into a playlist and I cannot be anything but amazed. Okay, some stuff stand out way more than the other stuff, but still.

The 77 Loren Park Sessions
Wet Dream Cousin, not really intended as such, but still fun.
God (instrumental)
Alexa De Paris
Venus De Milo
The Family unstrumentals; YES!
Madhouse 6 & 8 with remixes and b-sides and 24, of course.
Them Sheila E songs; Too Sexy and Shortberry Strawcake (both amazing)
Euphoria Highway (wish I had a good version of that)
The instrumental Question Of U's
Eric Leeds' Times Squared (his best instrumental stuff, I think, cuz it has got a great team to back it up)
N.E.W.S.
The X album (which to me is a bit TOO lite, to be honest)
And the stuff that falls in between the cracks; Get Some Solo, 2 Nigs United 4 West Compton etc.

Is there stuff I overlooked? I can still add parts of rehearsel jams like Billy Sunglasses too...

Another Lonely Christmas (instrumental version)
Billy Sunglasses
The segue between Rainbow children and Muse 2 the Pharaoh (I love it)
Sensual Everafter

Another Lonely Xmas is a rehearsel, right? Like I said; there is SO much there, I haven't had time to dive into THAT extensive pool.

Sensual Everafter, hehehe. I kinda never THOUGHT about that album, as I dislike it SO severely that I often get angry just listening to it. I am a very lyrically obsessed person and seeing Prince being so closed minded about worldly stuff still makes me sad, so sad. And angry, cuz alot of the stuff he spews on TRC is SO igigigigignorant.

Anyways, lemme try again to listen to it.

Sensual Everafter... it is kinda nice, but that voice... grrrr

And that segue made me open up my editing program. Editing it as I type.

I just cut the part outof the song; creating Rainbow Children [Pt II], like Thieves In The Temple PtII, hehehe.

Kamasutra (Album)
Gamillah (Chocolate Invasion)
Xpectation (Album)
Arboretum (One Nite Alone, Piano)

There's a few more unreleased instrumentals like Wet Dream Cousin.

Thinking of the "Climax", and the instrumental version of Possessed, and another one from a similar period, erm, Lust U Always (??)

Oh, and the instrumentals from 'Dream Factory', 'Visions' and t'other.

Uhm, I got them outtakes you mention on my list.

Them instrumentals from Dream Factory you mention are actually solo performances by or Wendy or Lisa, so they do not really qualify.

I included the Times Squared performances because Prince OR wrote the track OR is on it. They go with the flow.

C-Note (various versions)

christopheries said:

Forgot to mention it, but of course, I got it added.

What various version?

Yes (the Family)
Susannah's Pajamas (the Family)

Jelly Jam

HamsterHuey said:

Copenhagen
Nagoya
Osaka
Tokyo

And another track;
Yes Again (not completely instrumental, some choruses saying ´Yes Again´)

Ow, and I forgot:

Now´s the Time

ah yes, arboretum, that's a nice one too!

and the contest song original instrumental

and ehm, i don't know any other stuff lol.

although you could cut the coda off "The Rainbow Children", which will
leave you with a very cool instrumental. i think it's like the last 3
minutes of the title song.

{lemme see that body get} loose!

kinda

and one of the better instrumentals:

Gett Wild (Money Maker Funky Jazz Mix). that's just to die for

San Jose Jam (music club download)
Habibi (aka machinegun)
Brand New Orleans (although that goes better along with S.T.D.)

New Power Soul (from the exodus album)




hey hey hey play me some o'dem 45's u got over there

READ the bleeding thread, mate. Already done!

I am now in the middle of segueing the tracks, adding some, like indeed Arboretum.

christopheries said:

Got them covered, as they are, kinda, pre-Madhouse tracks.

IstenSzek said:

I havent gotten around live stuff yet.

And BNO I missed!

And you know me, edit-freak, as I came across Thirteen And 1/4 by Madhouse and even though I loooove the original; it sounds slowed down.

Speeding it up as I type.

LoL

Oil can (I know it was officially an NPG track but could be included?)

THanks all for your ideas!

I have to go to work now, but will certainly include most suggestions you made!

dodger said:

I think that is partly Prince, so I will! Thanks!

Some more:

Toy Box
Baby (instrumental version)
19 (a girl and her puppy)
21 (some spoken stuff, also some choruses in the beginning of the track, but i consider it an instrumental)
My summertime Thang (some choruses, but i also consider this track as an instrumental)

That first (4-second-long) segue from Rave.

Well, it doesn't feature any vocals...

HamsterHuey said:

True, but I'd include 'em just because they were on DF.
