Unofficial is the Warehouse rehearsal for now famous 1984 birthday gig. Remember, he recorded in The Warehouse. And it was either the Warehouse rehearsal or the birthday gig itself that served as the recording for Jill Jones' "All Day, All Night". The date for him recording that is June 7, 1984, so it has to be one of those two times: Warehouse or First Avenue (most think it's the latter, but I've not listened close enough to know, but I'll take First Ave until I know better). Quite a cool piece of unstaged recording history there.

There's various 3rd Eye Girl stuff of him in the studio, or streaming. There's a vid floating right now of him and Joshua Welton taking turns playing piano, continuing the same song mostly (Prince plays "The Beautiful Ones" for about 90 seconds in the middle.

I say "staged" earlier because stuff like "Beautiful Strange" is a set up for something else. "Partyman" might have been the real deal, but do we know if that take is on the record? It's definitely more "real" than "Beautiful Strange". Remember, this is a guy who can do the same take over and over perfectly, so to hear him sing a couple of lines from "Strangely beautiful..." could sound the same on camera, or off. It's still quite interesting to see him in there. I kinda wonder if we won't see more leak out over time.
