Gotta Stop(Messin' About)

This jam puts a big grin whenever I give it a listen, esp when he says "All I want is a little time, I've been playing with my toy so much I'm gonna go blind. lol I always laugh whenever I hear this line.

Plus, the fact that its the 1st B-side from TONS of non-realesed song in that period makes it wonderful 2 me.

I love this song love

Dirty Mind is only 30 mins long.
He coulda squeezed a couple of extra
tracks on there no problem.

Gotta Stop (Messin' About) was
originally gonna be on the album.
I've no idea why it was pulled.

There was a pre-release sampler 12"
with five tracks from the album,
and Gotta Stop (Messin' About) was
one of them.

love this song...
always reminds me of the kinda sound i would hear in cheesy b grade 80s teen movies like Fraternity Vacation & the like...
very very cool...

but i think Dirty mind is perfect the way it is...
any other trax on there that could be below par,& it would ruin the perfect funk that the album turned out 2 b smile
