Prince-U ever have a Crystal Ball?

Hearing the unreleased Crystal Ball track years ago floor me and still does it was like the doors "soft parade" done prince style. I think that initial track/project got buried and then placed on the 90's boxset unnoticed did it miss out on being properly released in anybody else's mind?

It all has to do with the "Dream Factory", "Crystal Ball" (the album) and the "Camille" debacle.
Fully documented on wiki, princevault and of course the Org.

It was a somewhat obscure and somewhat botched release in 1997, but it's still available in lossless and lossy on Tidal, added back in June with a number of other less mainstream Prince albums.
