Starfish & Coffee

Is there an extended mix of this floating around?

There is the 1995 version with the NPG which is longer, but that's a different recording.

A nice verison is that rehearsal where Boni starts off accidentally playing a wrong note, and Prince says, "nice chord."

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

This magic song doesn't need an extended version.

Just realized; I wish they could have added a pristine (and possibly existing longer) Muppets version onto the forthcoming special edition.

Prince's general oeuvre has got people wanting 20 minute versions of even his most succinct of classic pop songs.

Yeah, well I'm not one of them. America and IWD4U extended version are an unnecessary excess.

This raises another question; Prince claimed to have re-recorded a big chunk of his back catalogue in the late 90s. Hans Buff (his regular engineer at the time) has cast doubt on those claims, but we know that he did re-record some of it, because those versions are circulating. Is there a broad appetite for hearing these later reworkings? If so, should they be released with the original versions or as their own thing? I would certainly be happy to hear them smile
