Princevault says with no ambiguity that Prince wasn't involved in any of these tracks.

Boris, in his Housequake.com masterlist, used to say that Prince was involved not as a composer of course, but as "producer only" (whatever that means: playing on the track? mixing it? supervising the recording? arranging it????).

I trust Boris: he's not the kinda dude to claim something without doing his homework, so I included both songs in my discog (link below), but I'd like to have some final words on this and see him and Princevault agree on something!

Boris and Princevault folks are u around?

Anyone else has any clue?

Pardon my ignorance, but who are the artists for these songs?

I would love to know this too (I'd love to have more info on the recording of The World Is High and Paradise Gardens, as well). This is just conjecture on my part: Save the People seems like a Prince/Sheila jam session. I kind of imagine him jamming out a groove and then her joining in with percussion, and then that jam session got turned into the finished product (which, IMO, has absolutely amazing percussion work on it). Also, toward the end of the song, it sounds like it repeats the drum machine pattern that was used in The Glamorous Life. Not that that means anything, but it seems like a Prince thing to do.

They are Sheila E. B-sides.

Yes, thanks! I, too, have often wondered about this, looking forward to the answer...
