2gether R&B Mix????

Hi there, was recently browsing the wonderful Princevault (seriously, whoever's running this is a hero) when I came across this mix I've never heard before. There's no more information on it other than, well, it exists:

here - http://www.princevault.co...hp/2gether

and here - http://www.princevault.co...e:_2gether

But does it? I'e always found Princevault a very reliable source for completist stuff like this; finding only an occasional hiccup. Now I have the CD maxi-single and thought that that was about it, and there's nothing elsewhere online I can find about it. Funnily enough, whilst checking Discogs I did discover that there were in fact two versions released of this single; a 5 track and a 6 track (neither containing this 'edit'):

http://www.discogs.com/New-Power-Generation-2Gether/master/423636

So, does anyone have any idea where to find this? Or is it a rare Princevault mistake? Cheers for any help guys!

I think this may have been on a cassette single or promo? The version I had downloaded for a long time sounded like shit, like a cassette transfer from the early days of mp3.

One of the volumes of 30 Years of Unreleased Funk has a nice quality version of the R&B edit.

it's no mistake, it's from a cassette single that was sold during the tour

Thanks for the information--I've wondered about that myself. Princevault just has a CD and cassette maxi-single that don't include that mix. What other tracks were on the one with the R&B mix--just stuff that's on the other singles?

Thanks the info guys. I didn't even know it was released on cassette (it's not on Discogs). As EddieC asked, I'd be interested to know what the full tracklist is if someone actually owns a copy?

I just found this too... http://www.cdandlp.com/it...ether.html

Again no mention of this mix being on the cassette. Strange. Can someone actually confirm that the track is on their copy?

it's not on the maxi single cassette, it's another version. there were a few rare tapes like staxowax and mustang mix tapes for example

1. AlbumMIX

2. 12inchMIX

3. INTERview

4. ENlightenment

5. JEEpMIX

That's the maxi--or as I like to think of it, the end of my "less-than-official" copy of the the album (the bootmakers just stuck it on--but it does have "Guess Who's Knockin'" on it). Unique is saying there's another cassette single, apparently--and Princevault, though they don't describe the actual release, do list the R&B Mix in the released versions of the song.
