As far as I am aware, he has only spoken in general terms: for example, that he has hundreds or thousands of songs recorded but unreleased,

Most reports emanate from other sources. During the first Celebration in 2000, visitors were advised that Prince did not only store recordings at Paisley Park but elsewhere too. Levi Seacer described in interview how Prince had once provided him with a list of songs previously recorded, and Levi had picked some (going by their title) to work on further with Prince - Prince requesting that the relevant tapes be brought up from the Paisley Vault for them to play around with.

But little else reported first hand.

In 1986 he said in an interview that he had 320 unreleased songs.

Prince has released songs from the vault , there may even be 1 or 2 on Planet Earth. I don't understand why people worry about this!

On MTV in 1999 he said that the vault has: The really erotic Prince, amazing jazz, revolution work ... I can't remember the rest but "The really erotic Prince and amazing jazz" was mentioned. I remember Kurt say "REALLY" after Prince said "really eroctic." Kurt loader asked about recordings with Miles Davis and Prince just "whistled." Kurt also asked about Roadhouse garden and Prince said he was working on pervious recordings but it is on the back burner for now.

I also remember Kurt asking about Prince's former outfits (I think he might have even asked about the briefs he would wear on stage) and Prince said "Why, aren't you getting any? Why you need to know about my outfits." It was a funny interview. I was surprised that Prince sat down with Kurt because Kurt had always been a little funky towards Prince. IMO - Prince look crazy with the big hair and stuff but it's all good.

eek really erotic Prince songs in the vault? Just the thought gets me excited.
What do we have to do, to get at least that part of the vault released? I would vote, sign a petition, change my religion, do community service, join the salvation army, purify myself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka, beg and plead. batting eyes Whatever it takes, sign me up ! wave
