I know this is a stupid question, and as a Prince fan I should know it, but only being a Prince fan since 2005, I really don't know the answer to this.

Does Prince have b-sides and unreleased songs (that are available) that aren't on the Works Vol. 1-5, Crystal Ball 3-cd set, or The Hits/The B-sides? I know he's released a lot of albums and has a lot of unreleased songs, but are there any that I'm missing?

If anyone can point me to a list of all b-sides that didn't make the albums, I'd be eternally grateful.

Some cleaned up B-sides and extended versions are on Prince Ultimate released a couple years ago. But they appear on the b-sides sources you already posted.

Other than that, there are DJs out there who have done decent jobs 'remastering' several b-sides and outtakes.

There are 3 or 4 orgers who will be along sometime in the next day or two who can give you much better info than me though.

Hmmm. It's a shame Housequake.com isn't around, their discography was really good.
Check Wikipedia's discography, it should be accurate, it's upkept by fans.

The Hits/B-Sides misses quite a few b-sides, and only includes the 7" versions, many b-sides had 12" mixes too.

I've posted this list many times but here we go again....

B-sides and rarities:

This list includes b-sides, soundtrack songs, B-sides of hit and run singles, virtual b-sides and New Power Generation b-sides. It also includes the songs on the "Cream" and "New power generation" 12" singles (are they b-sides? are they remixes? Who knows?):
