Okay im showing my naivety here but if they are unreleased how do you get to hear them and how on earth can you get a top 5? Im lost but would love to find some of these gems. Could someone please send me an email and some pointers? unless of course that is against forum rules

stevecm3@hotmail.com if you can

sgmusic said:

This is not unreleased as it was the b side to Gold.

Lucky sod. Theres a slight tape hiss on mine...

squirrelgrease said:

What did you do with the FLAC full version of Cosmic Day I sent you in 1999????

eelco said:

I sent it back to Prince when he asked all the fams to return unofficial recordings to him.

I'm still waiting for my thank you shirt.....

I forgot about that. It was part of a set that included Palomino Pleasure Ride, right? I couldn't play it right away. I had to wait a few years to find a FLAC converter.

SquirrelMeat said:

I sent all my stuff to Ways Of The Pharaoh, too. I didn't get a shirt, but Prince came to my house and jammed. I had to kick him out at midnight.

I'd have done the same . These Jehovah-witness guys can be pretty hard to get rid of. Now wasn't it you also who slammed the door against his hip?

sgmusic said:

is a GREAT song but was reaeased on the ''GOLD'' single. good choice though

eelco said:

Didn't P do his own version of G-Spot? If so, that would DEF. be in my top 5.
Also, the sax version of Crucial, tragically not put into the Crystal Ball set.

Um, I'll get back to you on the other three...

Oh, and the acoustic version of Love

I won't tell... NOW, to get back on topic, give back my keys to THE VAULT!

I agree with your choices. I like Graffiti Bridge, but taking out the horns from We can funk and All Day All night-and replacing them with keyboards...not the best choice. And his Data Bank is so much better than the Time's, it's not even close.
