NO TROLL THREADS! NO SOLICITING FOR BOOTLEGS! Discussion is fine, so long as the bootleg is not being promoted e.g. pre-release; requests/offers to share or copy, asking for/hinting, and links to download or bootleg sites are not. Posting Prince and associated artist videos from sites such as YouTube is also not allowed. Posts of this nature will be deleted and repeat offenders will be first warned, and then banned. Troll threads, fake tracklists, and attention seeking rumor threads will be also be swiftly dealt with. These rules are strictly enforced!

*********************

A soundboard recording of an April 5, 1985 soundcheck in Lakeland, Florida is circulating, including the previously unheard track "Someone 2 Call." Prince leads the band for the first 49 minutes or so, teaching them this track. The set also includes Bodyheat, Poet, a short polka "She's 2 Fat 4 Me" and a couple takes of Let's Go Crazy.

Per org rules, no soliciting or "where can I get" - just wanted to start a thread for discussion.

Sounds kinda nice thus far....!

liking it....floodgates opening for celebration time????????

how bout his voice on Poet???....too good

I'm a half hour into it and I'm enjoying it immensely

i feel like most day of his working life Prince had one of these recordings. I feel like I am in a corner of that very rehearsal room in the dark sipping a pina colada and witnessing my idol alive for one more day with that recording.

Just wondering what the studio version of Someone 2 Call sounds like because this rehearsal is funky.

Love hearing Prince work up a song.

I'm so loving this. The musical arrangement is sexy. The guitar.. I wonder if he had released it, where it would've fit in?

Still listening for the first time--does everyone have some weird edit/glitch type thing around 33:26 of "Someone 2 Call"?

Yes. It doesn't flow and seems like a portion was clipped/ edited. Maybe others are hearing it too?

Yes, I hear it too.

Yes, and there are more:

24.12

24.17

30.51

33.26

38.16

45.09

There are also few more at the end of the recording after 'Someone 2 Call'. Glitches, tags, or a new 'Billy' loop? Your guess is as good as mine.
