No, its the known and released versions in a different configuration (i.e Gold is the released version, rather than the superior 10,000 Wallpaper).

There's actually nothing I would want to do more than write about un-documentumented outtakes. But, thats really a double edged sword. When I first heard "If It'll make u happy". The first thing I wanted to do was tell fans about it because I thought it was that great. With all the recently outtakes, I'm disappointed that fans aren't really writing much about how they feel about the songs. Some seem to care more about having a song to mark off from a checklist then actually appreciting the music itself.

Well said. Some of these newer leaks rank with my favorite Prince tracks ever. Especially Adonis & Bathsheba. That song is absolutely beautiful. It has such a Princely sound. Nobody else makes music like that.

Hell yeah, This is top notch stuff.

But just wait to you get to a Purple Circle Level 7 and obtain. "Hey, Louie Louie"#3. It's a very cold and lonely place to be. It's the badlands of caring and being a completionist. Big Chick is strong but thats a lot of pain.

One thing I don't see a lot of people mention, but I'm digging: The Hot Wit U remix that recently leaked is slammin! I'm digging this like I dig The Good Life (Big City Remix) & Come On (Remix). Love it! Way better than the Rave Un2 & In2 versions.




I agree. I was really surprised that the Hip hop mix had alternate lyrics. Never heard that version. At an afterparty i was in the Dj area and i looked at the test pressing for the Hot X-perience and I will say that the house mix that debuted on the Npgaudio show was titled "House Wit U". I would love to hear that in a non-edited form. Thats the whip.

Big Chick, I remember you spoke a while ago praising If It'll Make U Happy saying how it was recorded around same time as How Come U Don't Call Me. I'm also surprised there hasn't been more made of it and other new gems like I Guess I'm Crazy.

.

Because there's too much hassle involved: knowing it's out there, finding a decent copy, debating whetherh it's the real thing, which version, whether it's tagged,...

.

The simple fact that you have to dig through layers of shit before you get to these things really is detrimental to their perception. It's like truffles: I bet people who love to eat them would do so a lot less if they were the ones to go find them in the woods.

.

If all of this was easy to find, you wouldn't have a five page thread where four pages consist of "meta"-discussion.

This is spot on. It takes a lot of time and energy to be a dedicated fan. Some of us have bills to pay and kids to raise.

Over the past several weeks, I've acquired about 8-9 different versions of Computer Blue. I have no idea which ones are which, the story behind them, etc. I don't have time to compare the sound quality. I have no idea which ones were artificially cleaned up or "enhanced" by collectors, if any. I'm glad I have them, I guess, but it's time consuming and annoying to sift through all this stuff.

Also, some of these new compilations are weak. It's cool to get the few songs that are new or truly better versions. But all the shit everyone already has is just annoying. Blast from the Past 3.0 looks like it's a blast from my ass.

Not as far as I know. Too bad. It would be a highlight of that set.

It's a close approxiamation for those periods but you have to take into consideration that theres a crazy amount of alternate versions of those songs plus songs that have been released. And sometimes a good alternate version is like listening to completely new song.

I can totally agree on all those points. It is aggravating. The truffles anaology is apt.

taking into consideration what Bart said would you now be willing to write about songs the fan community has not heard? it would be so interesting

Question 》can we suppose there are full unreleased albums in the vault not even known by fans ?

Maybe an insider has the reply to this question?

According to the guy on Guitars:

hmmm....not sure if this test press is legit, Days Of Wild sounds exactly the same sound quality as the outtake bootlegs. Its not digital'/perfect sound as you would expect from a CDR test press.

Imo I think this is a fan compilation to mimic the tracklist of the test press.....listen to the fade down on Days....you hear the remix of TMBGITT....the same as the DAT that was given to Dutch radio stations back in February 1994.

These tracks were on Now 1CD: http://thedigitalgarden.o...1-now.html

see!....after Days is the remix of Beautiful.....this test press is NOT legit, its a fan made compliation.

Even though the radio stations were given a DAT of those outtakes for broadcast the bootlegs that were made and ergo the source were recorded over FM, off the radio...which is why they are not direct digital copies from DAT.....ergo why Days sounds a bit muddy.

I wish these guys would STOP with all the fake bs......!!!, we're hardcore fans, we know sources and sound quality like the back of our hands. All these bloody fake fan edits of outtakes, extending tracks by cut and paste and looping sections of songs....WE CAN TELL!

I heard those fake extended Cosmic Day and A Million Miles and I just rolled my eyes, at least label this stuff as fan made edits/extended tweakings and not try pass this stuff as legit.
