It was The Revolution playing and Prince singing. It was a true representation of how Prince recorded music back then. Songs like "Let's Go Crazy", "Darling Nikki", etc were recorded with the band, opposed to broken down in parts and mixed later (ie one man band sound).


Ernest, your posts are mostly factually correct, but "Darling Nikki" was Prince alone, utilizing overdubs.

Other than that,
"Databank" is still one of my favorite outtakes (hilarious!!!), and utilizes the expanded 'counter'-Revolution.
"Mark. No. Wait. U in the wrong key, cuzzin!"
Wunderbar!
Prost!

I do know "Nikki" was recorded in his home studio, just a few days after the infamous First Avenue gig August 3, 1983.

I remember some early recording that had Prince saying "Play ni**a!" in the background, trying to cue the drummer. I thought it was "Darling Nikki".

Well, this is how we get our facts straight! biggrin

I hear prince throwin' his drumsticks down at the end and proclaiming something to the affect of : "...that's enough! u fired! i'mma give u sompin nah. u need sompin! git yo ass outta heah..."

Do you hear any difference in "Starfish & Coffee" except for the lack of bell at the beginning?
Just curious smile

Prost!

I have no idea what all that means. I'm just telling you what I remember hearing, which makes me think "Nikki" was a band recording. I believe the version I'm thinking of is on 30 Years of Unreleased Funk, but it could be The Work.
