TONY'S IGGNANT MIX vs BROTHER WITH A PURPOSE

Which is your FAVOURITE of these two versions of the song? According to PrinceVault, the song is "notable as the first released track by Prince to feature Tony M". Originally titled Tony's Iggnant Mix, but later retitled Brother With A Purpose, the song was released on Prince's maxi-single, New Power Generation, the fourth overall single from the album, Graffiti Bridge. Personally, I quite like it when the keyboards come in just before the 0.45 minute mark, a precursor to the swirling effect indicative of the early Come recordings. Okay, perhaps that part is a stretch. Still, which is your FAVOURITE of these two versions of the song?

Carmen Electra is behind door number 3. Doors 1 and 2 are Tony M vault and officially released recordings. You must enter Door 1 first, and then Door 2, before you are potentially allowed entry to Door 3. Unless of course you want to go through the Back Door (where you will find T. C Ellis).

Alive (but horribly scarred) or dead. hmmm

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

Neither, I'm sorry. I have no use for this track. The only time I like Tony M on the mic is on My Name Is Prince and Sexy MF. Other than that, he shouldn't have been allowed near microphones.

Keep your headphones on.

Haha! This thread was inspired by you, Schlomo! Brother With A Purpose is actually okay in the context of the maxi single, which is very enjoyable.
