I really hate listening to sh*tty quality versions of songs, which is one of the reasons I've always steered clear of bootlegs. The only ones I have ever downloaded were those in the Beautiful Experience, and that version of Come is my favourite thing ever!

I'd hate to think there were any other classics in CD quality that I'm missing out on. Are there any dead-cert pristine songs out there?

Dunno which versions I've got or if there are any better quality ones ou there, but:

"I Miss U" is pretty weak quality. As is "chocolate", which is a shame as it's one of my favourite bootlegs. "If I had a Harem" ain't good either.

What about "Heaven Over You" the only thing I can make out that Prince is singing is the title itself.

Heaven over you is a fake... jeez...ya'll need to quit downloading fakes... LOL... Aaron could do a song called "eat my balls with a dirty spoon" and title it by prince and ya'll would be all over it LOL

I actually have very solid sounding versions of these two. "Broken" was on both Studio Nights and The Work and the vinyl only "Tricky" was posted in fairly good quality on winmx.

"What tricky say? What tricky say Yacketty yak!"

That's not a demo, I thought it was a b-side to Cool or some other early Time single.

I think it's a shame that Big Tall Wall sounds so bad, because otherwise the song is really interesting. Good vocal arrangement.

What about "The Grand Progression" or "Inside Of U" or whatever the hell is actually called? ... The sound quality of that demo sucks big time.

Princes demo of T.C. Ellis' "Miss Thang" really sounds like ass. The 88 Pink cashmere is floating around in terrific quality!!!

That's a fake.




What do you mean??




If it it the one Ive heard beore, I dont think that it is Prince.A few boots have "fakes" on them. The Uptown books mention a few (tho Im not positive that "My Lord"is one of them).



"my lord" is not a fake. he keeps repeating "my lord" and says some other stuff to music that sounds identical to "shall we dance". besides being a really bad recording the song sucks too. maybe uptown meant that the title was fake like the regular mishap of calling "in a large room with no light" ,"welcome to the rat race"...the boot that i have it on is him with a black sleeveless shirt holding a yellow guitar it has outtakes of "elephants and flowers" and "question of you" on it among others. the entire boot is shit quality.

Deja, the boombox demos are bad sounding; but for how they were recorded they are great--and the songs kick butt for the most part. his guitar is great.

Player sucks period.

SoulPychodelicide is garbage as well.

Snowman has a muffled sound but is a good song.

I had to tape over Big Tall Wall. sad

The problem with Extralovable is that it is mono.

I have a studio outtake of SEX that is really bad. Hissy and hard to listen too.

Thank god I found a better sounding Moonbeam Levels; it used to sound horrible and scratchy.
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

Funny, I read in Uptown (fairly recently) that it was indeed a fake.

No surprise there. It doesn't sound like him. Oddly enough, I originally got this on a tape that also contained "Cat Scratch"...another fake. Sounds like the same guy singing too!
