28 December 1985
Prince gets together with Eric Leeds, Sheila E. and Levi Seacer Jr. to jam at Sunset Sound.
The quartet recorded a highly spontaneous "Paisley Jam" session. Eric played saxophone, Sheila drums, Levi bass, while Prince alternated between guitar and piano. Eight instrumentals were committed to tape:


1 Slaughterhouse
2 U Just Can't Stop

3 Run Amok
4 Mobile
5 Madrid
6 Breathless
7 High Colonic
8 12 Keys


They were given titles simply to facilitate their identification. Accordingly "Madrid" was named so because it had a kind of Spanish feel, while "Mobile" (referring to Mobile, Alabama) was a bluesy piece. Similarly "12 Keys" featured mmany key changes (the song incorporates a portion of the melody of "The Question Of U"). Eric went into the studio the next day to record saxophone and flute over dubs on some of the "Paisley Jam" tracks.

30 December 1985
Fired up by the results of the "Paisley Jam", Prince is back in the Sunset Sound studio with Eric, Sheila and Levi. They recorded "U Gotta Shake Something", "Voodoo Who" and "Finest Whisky" during another highly relaxed session. By now, Prince was beginning to realise that the music they were creating was highly exciting and perhaps worthy of release.

5 January 1986
Lisa Coleman, Wendy Melvoin and her brother Jonathan, join the line-up of Prince, Eric, Sheila and Levi in the Sunset Sound studio for an exhausting seven-hour session, the so-called "Everybody's Jam". Six of the pieces hat were recorded were given titles:


* Groove in C Minor
* Slow Groove in G Major
* Groove in G Flat Minor
* Junk Music
* Up From Below
* Y'all Want Some More?


During this session, Prince played primarily drums, while Sheila and Jonathan played percussion, Lisa piano and Wendy guitar and bass.

22 January 1986
An album is assembled from the instrumental sessions held in late Dec. 1985 and early Jan. 1986. Around 20 minutes of the 45 minute "Junk Music" was going to make up side one of the LP, while "Up From Below", "Y'all Want Some More?" and "A Couple Of Miles" were planned for side two of the LP. No test pressing of The Flesh LP was ever made, however, and the album was shelved when Under The Cherry Moon and other activities demanded Prince's full attention.

// So the tracklist for the LP was sequenced:

Side A:
1. Junk Music pt 1 10min
2. Junk Music pt 2 9:41min
Side B:
2. Up From Below 4:48min
3. Y'All Want Some More? 1:32min
4. A Couple Of Miles [This was recorded as a tribute to Miles Davis in late December] 4:29min

//

Featuring largely improvisional music, the Flesh sessions allowed Prince to stretch out musically and develop his musical vocabulary. The Flesh can be seen as a forerunner to Prince's later Madhouse project in more wanys than one.
Much like Madhouse, the musical focus of The Flesh was on instrumental music, basically funk jams with a distrinct jazz flavour added by Eric Leeds, who was given the opportunity to contribute more actively to Prince's music. And much like Madhouse the plan was ro release The Flesh album "anonymously" with few details about the participants and certainly no mention of Prince's involvement.

The Flesh instrumentals remain unreleased, although part of the melody for "Madrid" was later re-used by Eric for "Andorra" on his 1991 Times Squared album. Additionally, some 30 seconds of "Junk Music" made it into Under The Cherrymoon as background music (in the scene where Tricky and Christopher are arguing over what type of man Mary Sharon prefers).

Further Sunset Sound sessions in January included work on several tracks for Jill Jones' album. Before leaving for L.A. in late January, Prince taped 2 songs for Dream Factory, "Last Heart" and "It's A Wonderful Day".


End. //

To put these recordings into perspective of released music, here are some of the tracks recorded around the same time-frame:

- Mountains, An Honest Man, (November 1985)
- Anotherloverholenoyohead, The Dream Factory, Eternity, Can I Play With U?, Love On A Blue Train (December 1985)

Y'All Want Some More? is an unreleased instrumental recorded on 5 January, 1986 during the so-called "Everybody's Jam" seven-hour session (that also produced Groove In C Minor, Groove In G Flat Minor, Junk Music, Slow Groove In G Major and Up From Below) at Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA, USA. During the session, Prince primarily played drums. The track was included as the third track on the 22 January, 1986 configuration of The Flesh album, to be credited to The Flesh, which was ultimately abandoned.

Witness 4 The Prosecution
This raw, hard, bluesy rock number featuring Prince's guitar was recorded during the Dream Factory sessions. It was embellished with horns and background vocals by Wendy, Lisa, Susannah and Eric Leads. Prince uses a court analogy in describing his love/hate relationship with his woman.

Witness 4 The Prosecution

I am a witness 4 the prosecution of a hate in this love affair
I who am guilty of nothing but always wantin' 2 be there
Mama, I swear I love U, I always have

Oh, baby {x2}

How many time have U called my number
Wishing I was someone else?
How many time did my heart tumble
Feeling sorry 4 myself?
How many time have I kissed U
And smelled another man's perfume?
How many lonely nights I missed U
Wishing 4 your body in my lonely room? (Lonely room)

Baby, if U break my heart one more time
It'll be the last heart U ever break
I've taken all I can take
Baby, this heart wasn't made 2 break

How many time can U hurt me (Hurt me)
Before your conscience make U stop? (Stop, stop, oh)
U made it all, why not desert me?
Baby, U know U can never cop, never cop (Never cop)
A body that'll do U like I do
U got 2 get your thing 2gether, sister
I'm tired of being your fool

If U break my heart one more time
It'll be the last heart U ever break
Baby, I've taken all I can take
Baby, my heart wasn't made 2 break

Oh Lord
Baby, don't U break my heart, no no
Don't do it!

If U break my heart one more time
It'll be the last heart U ever break
Darlin', I've taken all I can take
Baby, this heart wasn't made 2 break

(When U fix your mouth 2 tell that lie)
When U fix your mouth 2 tell a brand new lie
(Never before told, by and by)
Remember this story told, by and by
(False words should never be spoken)
False words should never be, never be spoken
(My heart should never be broken)
And baby, my heart should never be, never be broken

If U break my heart one more time
It'll be the last heart U ever break

Even thought it was released on the 1997 Crystal Ball compilation, it was from 1986 so I want to piece it here. The songs was performed at the August 24th 1986 Parade(aftershow) Le New Morning Paris

MUSICIAN (1997)

APRIL 1997 * MUSICIAN

How can you tell when the song you're working on has potential?

Well, see, I can't say anything about that, because I hate criticizing music. If you judge something, maybe that means you get judged back someday. I wouldn't tell you that some song you wrote isn't any good. I wrote this song called "Make Your Mama Happy" that would probably frighten you. And this other song I wrote, "Sexual Suicide," has this horn section that's nothing but baritone saxes; it sounds like a truck coming at you. So who can say?

Make Your Mama Happy

Basic tracks were recorded on 8 August, 1986 (the day after the recording of Forever In My Life), at Prince's Galpin Blvd Home Studio in Chanhassen, MN, USA.

Old Friends 4 Sale
This slow bluesy classic is one of Prince's most autobiographical songs in which he sings about Steve Fargnoli, Wendy Melvoin, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, and the late bodyguard Chick Huntsberry. A somber mood is established from an eerie slightly discordant synth with a piano the main accompaniment. Recorded during the Parade sessions, two versions exist, with one including Clare Fischer's orchestra. It was revised in 1991.

The song "Old Friends 4 Sale" was written in 1985
and was featured in Prince's movie "Under The Cherry Moon" but not included on the soundtrack "Parade".

Old Friends 4 Sale can b heard when christopher comes home 2 a drunk tricky
The original song contained lyrics with veiled references about the firing of Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis of The Time
and "Big" Chick Huntsberry, his former bodyguard,
who supposedly sold a fictious story about Prince to a tabloid to support his cocaine habit.

I still don't understand how/why people think the line about snow is in any way related to Jam & Lewis. He wouldn't follow that line up with Minnesota winters and cocaine, if he hadn't meant for it to be metaphoric. Speculation can be made about which friends he's referencing -- Big Chick, Vanity, Morris --- but I don't think for a second that he wrote that line in the literal sense.

I forget where I copied that from. But I believe it is Morris Day & Vanity too

I'm going to update that info

SEXUAL SUICIDE

Initial tracking took place on 10 August, 1985, at the Crosstown Circle Warehouse in Eden Prairie, MN, USA (six days after Empty Room, shortly before Go). The liner notes in Crystal Ball state that Sheila E. showed Prince how to play the drumbeat, but she is not given any writing credit. Sexual Suicide was initially placed as the tenth and final track on an April, 1986, configuration of the Dream Factory album. It was included as the twelfth and final track (tenth song) on the first disc of a 3 June, 1986, configuration of the album. The track was removed from the album before the last known configuration, dated 18 July, 1986, before the album was ultimately abandoned.

Chapter 9 Alone:Wally
The Rise & Fall of Prince


The dispute over Crystal Ball left Prince frustrated & depressed.
And to make matters worse, his relationship with Susannah Melvoin was spinning out of control for the last time.
In the months since the couple had concluded their brief attempt at cohabitation in Prince's Chanhassan home, their fighting had continued taking an emotional toll on the both of them. In December 1986, Susannah finally decided she had had enough; she packed her things and returned to Los Angeles San Fernando Valley, joining Lisa & Wendy
...

One evening shortly after Sussanah's departure, Susan Rogers could tell something was very wrong when Prince came down to the basement studio. Looking disconsolate and barely speaking, he began constructing a song around a meloncholy piano pattern. His spoken lyrics portrayed a fictional dialogue between himself and Wally Safford, a dancer in the band. Sounding sad and lost, Prince asks Wally to borrow $50 and some sunglasses so he can impress his lover, but then changes his mind and returns the items telling Wally that since he is alone now, he has no one to spend the money on. Prince was accompanied only by piano throught the verse, but guitar bass and drums enter as the song built to a chorus on which he sings the phrase "o-ma-la-di-da"


Watching Prince construct the song which he called "Wally", Rogers was stunned by the honest emotion and wistfull resignation it conveyed. She saw the song both as a farewell to Susannah and a means of expelling the poison of failed relationship.

"Do you know that malady means sickness, illness in French?" Prince asked Rogers. Refering to the phrase he sings in the chorus. "It's almost like the word melody, isn't it?" Prince who rarely exposed his inner feelings, even in his music, was groping for a metaphor that would convey his feeling of loss. Rogers felt it was a turning point in his songwriting.

But as the session continued, Prince started to distance himself from the creation. He added extraneous instruments to diminished the songs clarity. A percussion part that cluttered the verse, detracting from the lyrics.

Don't you think it was better before, Prince?" Rogers said. "Maybe we should stop"
He ignored her, adding the synthizer riff. Soon it became clear to her: He was intentionally destroying the song. After larding the piece with additional instruments, he finally spoke. "Now put all 24 Channels on record and erase it." he told Rogers

"No, you can't do this!" Rogers said dismayed by the prospect of losing the statement at the core of the song.

"If you don't I will," Prince responded
Rogers stood her ground, and Prince was forced to operate the soundboard himself, as he destroyed his own music.

"Wally" like his relationship with Susannah, Wendy & Lisa involved more emotional intensity than Prince was willing to accept. "I thought it was the greatest thing he had ever done" says Rogers. I had waited years to hear a Prince song like this. I ached for him to be this honest.

Yet Princes refusal to explore his feelings was not altogether surprising. Rogers had discussed the topic of depression with him and found Prince contemptuous of the notion.
"He thought it was practically a sin to be depressed" she remembered. Many other associates have observed that Prince -not only in his relationships, but even in his music -is cryptic and unrevealing of his deepest feelings. "His music is very passionate, but he doesn't let himself open up emotionally" observed Marylou Badeaux. "

why did he change the lyrics when he released it?

Such a shame he did that, it sounds a great song

Really love this, shame it never got released maybe it was too personal at the time? I love the instrumental interlude at 2:41-3:07, puts electric shivers down my spine!

Go is an unreleased track recorded in early August, 1985, at the Crosstown Circle Warehouse, Eden Prairie, MN, USA, with only Wendy Melvoin and Lisa Coleman.

Prince worked on the track further in late October, 1985, when bandmembers arrived in France for the America video shoot, although it was worked on in rehearsal, rather than in the studio...

Engineer Susan Rogers noted that Prince put a lot of time and effort into the track, and must have been seriously considering it for release, although it was not included on any known configuration of Parade or any other project.

[Edited 10/7/15 10:47am]

They performed it at the(rehearsal) the show America was videoed. I heard it & Temptation and it sounded so fresh and electric.

12 Keys (Question of U)Eric Leeds named the track 12 Keys, unaware (as were Sheila E. and Levi Seacer, Jr.) that it was an instrumental version of a track Prince had recorded previously.

at Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA, USA. The session was all improvised, and recorded with no breaks between tracks; track names were given afterwards by Eric Leeds as a way of more easily identifying the pieces of music. It is unknown if this track was intended at the time for The Flesh album or any other project.

The Question Of U

While specific recording dates are not known, initial tracking took place in mid-late July, 1985 at the Crosstown Circle Warehouse, Eden Prairie, MN, USA (during the same set of sessions that produced Girls & Boys, ♥ Or $, Neon Telephone, Do U Lie?, Venus De Milo and (U Got The) Good Drawers), but was not included on any known configurations of Parade, or any other projects during 1985-6.

An instrumental version was recorded on 28 December, 1985 at Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA, USA with Sheila E., Levi Seacer, Jr and Eric Leeds during the so-called "Paisley Jam" session

this is hands down my favorite thread of yours, and your others are superdeep... but this one, really educates me. THANK U OLDFRIENDS!

It's A Wonderful Day is an unreleased song recorded on 30 January, 1986 at Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA, USA

The song was included as the third track on the late April, 1986 configuration of Dream Factory, and was kept as the third track on the 3 June, 1986 configuration, but was replaced by Train on the 18 July, 1986 configuration. Engineer Susan Rogers has stated that Prince may have always planned on replacing the track before release, and used it as a placeholder to find a track with a similar feel.

An instrumental portion of the track was included as background music in the Under The Cherry Moon movie, in a scene where Tricky and Christopher Tracy are arguing.

SPLASH

I called you on the phone
You knew it was me all along
You didn't even say hello
Cause you don't need words to let me know
All the things that you do to me
You fulfill my every fantasy

Splash - I'm under your power
Splash - I could go for hours
Splash - You could devour me
And I'd only want you more

Oh, when you make love to me
There's things I never thought I'd see
I cherish [...]
[...] in every sea
Oh, I love when you play with me
Ask your mom if you could stay with me

Splash - I'm under your power
Splash - I could go for hours
Splash - You could devour me
And I'd only want you more

Our love is a rhythm
Together we'll have so much fun

You go from room to room
Leaving traces of your sweet perfume
If I could I'd bottle it
Everybody should know the feelin' I get
When I'm in your cool embrace
Your lips, your arms, your legs, your face

Splash - I'm under your power
Splash - I could go for hours
Splash - You could devour me
And I'd only want you more
I want you more and more and more

Initial tracking took place on 1 August, 1985 at the Crosstown Circle Warehouse, Eden Prairie, MN, USA (the day after the release of the Pop Life single, three days before recording Empty Room). The track was sent to Clare Fischer for string recording in July, 1986, but the song was not included on any known configurations of any album. It is likely that further work was done on the track prior to its eventual release, but recording dates are not known. This final version was planned for inclusion on the Prince and the Revolution album Roadhouse Garden album worked on in 1998-9, but the album remains unreleased.

Empty room, empty room
How am I gonna fill U?
How am I gonna fill this empty room?

Love is strong, however long
We should've been 4ever
How am I ever gonna fill this empty room?

Found a strand of your hair
By the bathroom window
How am I ever gonna get U off my mind?

In my bed, in my head
Every word U've spoken
Now how am I gonna fill this empty room?

Lonely hearts, worlds apart
Why should they be broken?
When we could be somewhere makin' love

Love is strong, however long
We should've been 4ever
Baby, why did U leave me all alone?
Why'd U do it?

Barren walls, tears fall
What's the use in cryin'?
I gotta find a way, find a way 2 fill this empty room
