So Wonderful Ass will be the '83 version without Wendy and Lisa? That should definitely be interesting, I've never heard it.

And where are the two concerts? Can we assume that they will be released on DVD if they haven't been registered as songs?

Also, that's a much longer Father's Song than I've heard. Very good. Disc 3 looks impressive, everything and more I wanted with the exception of G-Spot.

Wow......they need their asses whipped for this.

This is a MAJOR letdown.

Who the hell needs a disk of 7" edits?

Where is the list of songs from the other artists that appeared on the movie?

There is only 1 song on the Prince Disk 3 that we don't already have.

What a letdown.

Totally agree on points one and two but I don't think we can reasonably complain that we already have most of disc 3. At least the quality will better (hopefully)

I get that most people won't have the D3 material.

D2 is a complete waste of time.

So far WB is is zero for 2 in my book. I won't be buying this.

I was looking forward to it until I saw this list.

I wouldn't assume anything until it's officially announced.

The live material is probably the lasy Syracuse show that was relased on Laserdisk and the 1984 Birthday show. (just a guess)

I'm betting it's the previously released Syracuse show, and the August 3, 1983 First Avenue show.

Great news!

I am happy; stop the negativity people!

I'm listening to Deliverance, and have the feeling that Prince is alive and well!

I can take on the world!

so why is it taking them forever and a day to release this tracklist?

it's not as if it's mindblowing.

wtf is velvet kitty kat doing on there? that sounds nothing like any
of the other songs from the era

looking more and more like prince had very little to do with this as
it's almost unthinkable he would put 'we can fuck' on a release at
this stage.

oh well. still excited. just a lot less than i was before

Hi guys,

just to clear up some of the comments in this thread, which seem to be based on presumptions.

I ask you to have some trust in this post; please be aware that my sources have asked to shed some light on the leaked tracklist:

- Father's Song is the full 5 minute, completely unheard, finished studio version. Mixed, mastered, multi-layered keyboard parts and all.

- Electric Intercourse is the finished studio version we didn't even knew existed for sure! NOT the 1983 rehearsal.

- Possessed is a completely different vocal version than has ever been circulating

- Katrina's Paper Dolls is not the known, circulating version

- Computer Blue and Dance Electric: the full, mastered, HQ version that always deserved a proper release.

- We Can Fuck is the epic 10 minute work-out that no-one has ever heard. Prince´s drumming on this one is right up there with any classic p-funk track you know.

We´re really, literally, talking about Straight From The VAULT material here.

Obviously, it's impossible for me at this moment to submit some form of proof to back up my claim, but all I ask for you is to wait 'till the release is out there before we all pass judgment. If I turn out to be wrong, I´ll be the first to acknowlegde! But I am positive MINDS WILL BE BLOWN!

Also, disc 2 does contain prev.released material, but you will be surprised on the mastering done and sound quality!

For now, patience and best wishes. It´s a tough week for all of us.

Let your sources know that Disc 3 is great!


But where is disc 4 with all the other outtakes?? This is Purple Rain FFS!

[Edited 4/19/17 13:36pm]

In addition, we can be sure that 1 of the DVD's will contain the Syracuse 1985 show, transferred from the 1" master reel, with restored and remastered audio. Not the Video or Laserdisc you may have...

Be well,

Sifi

Haha, Warner Bros just had the post removed for "copyright infringement" on Facebook.

So please save it, and re-upload it yourselves, everywhere.

Seriously, what is the point of them doing that? The info is out there now.

Our Destiny contains Lisa´s vocals / Roadhouse Garden contains Prince´s vocals. Songs go back to back and will be released here as they were done in the studio.

Cheers!

Your OP image is broken (at least for me) now. Could someone put the tracklisting in this thread so it makes sense?

Sifi......good info on disk 3 but disk 2? Rather pointless.

Here it is, in plain text.

UPDATED: Note that the article on Variety.com has Let's Go Crazy (dance mix) omitted completely. Probably poorly transcribed from Militan's original image.

http://variety.com/2017/m...202390479/

Disc 1: Original album, 2015 Paisley Park remaster

Disc 2: Edits & extended mixes

1. When Doves Cry (7” single edit)
2. 17 Days (single edit)
3. Let’s Go Crazy (single edit)
4. Erotic City (single edit)
5. Purple Rain (single edit)
6. God (single edit)
7. God (Love Theme From Purple Rain) (instrumental)
8. Another Lonely Christmas (single edit)
9. I Would Die 4 U (single edit)
10. Baby I’m a Star (single edit)
11. Take Me With U (single edit)
12. Let's Go Crazy ( Special Dance Mix)
13. Erotic City (extended version)
14. Another Lonely Christmas (extended version)
15. I Would Die 4 U (extended version)

Disc 3: From the Vault

1. The Dance Electric (11:29)
2. Love and Sex (5:00)
3. Computer Blue (“Hallway Speech” version) (12:18)
4. Velvet Kitty Cat (2:32)
5. Katrina’s Paper Dolls (3:30)
6. We Can F— (10:17)
7. Electric Intercourse (studio version) (4:57)
8. Our Destiny / Roadhouse Garden (6:25)
9. Possessed (7:56)
10. Wonderful A— (6:24)
11. Father’s Song (5:30)

Certainly agree with everyone that disk 2 is unnecessary, but disk 3 looks worth the price of admission, whatever that will be.

Well, this is disappointing.

[Edited 4/19/17 13:50pm]

i thought you had the inside scoop for days if not weeks now?

surely you've already had time to ajust to this news?

I know I'll be in the minority here if not the only person who is okay with disc 2. I can see myself listening to it if the tracks were in the order in which the singles were released with the five extended versions at the end. I like single edits and use them most of the times I make compilations for myself.

I do understand though that everyone else is disappointed because disc 2 is different from what was initially promised.

[Edited 4/19/17 14:40pm]

I'm not buying this as the final tracklist. For example, re CD2, where's the extended version of Let's Go Crazy? Sure, it's on CD, but it's more notable having that in there than many of the single edits, hence an odd omission.

No long version of 17 Days.

I'll still get this, but considering the amount of alternate versions and unreleased tracks from this period, this is bollocks.
