Prince's own 1986 recording of "Baby Go-Go," is very different from the released version on Nona Hendryx's 1987 album Female Trouble. Hendryx's version is a re-recording of the song by her musicians. Although retaining the funky bass riff, which is the basis of the melody, she turned Prince's lean, understated, and dramatic synth-led track into a big production number with thrusting horns and guitars to the fore.

Get the 'S.O.T.T. Rehearsals, vol. 1' set to hear the making of 'Baby Go-Go', as Prince teaches the track arrangement to his band.

And where is Nona Hendrix anyway? Part of LaBelle I wonder if Patti or Shelia have any Communication with her and DamnIt she should come out of Retirement! Great Voice and Presence.

I don't think Wendy and Lisa had anything to do with this song.
