I love Emotional Pump. A lot of ppl have commented on how this song didn't work for Joni Mitchell, but I believe Prince was signaling her work with bassist Jaco Pastorious. The song is seriously funky. | |

I don't even like the song so at this point in exhausted that Prince spent so much time doing one off edits of the thing. But I gotta say, I'd have probably taken any version over this chef salad version. That ending is not something I ever want to listen to. | |

1. Emotional Pump - Glad this great song is finally released
2. Rebirth Of The Flesh (with original outro) - Another favorite and glad to have it in good quality 3. Cosmic Day - Good song and I like the guitar solos 4. Walkin' In Glory - A nice song and new to me 5. Wally - It's ok but nothing special 6. I Need A Man - I like this song 7. Promise To Be True - Another great song I never heard before 8. Jealous Girl (version 2) - I'm glad to finally get to hear the full version. But where is version 1? 9. There's Something I Like About Being Your Fool - Wow such a great song and new to me. 10. Big Tall Wall (version 2) - The best version imo 11. A Place In Heaven (Lisa vocal) - It's decent but prefer Prince on vocals 12. Wonderful Day (12" mix) - Boring 13. Strange Relationship (1987 Shep Pettibone Club Mix) - A cool mix [Edited 10/6/20 16:38pm] Welcome 2 The Dawn | |

It takes soooo many of the best parts and turns the dial way up. Typically I don't even like most remixes. Maybe I don't like any. I don't enjoy the Hot Thing or HQ ones. Maybe it speaks to the strength of the material. Or maybe Shep just liked this song better and really leaned in cuz man I dig the hell out of this remix. | |

This is the only track on side B of LP 10 of the set. I got the CD set, so I’m curious to know if this side plays at the usual LP speed of 33 1/3 rpm? Just seems odd that there is space for another song or two! There may or may not be something coming! | |

It was incorrectly listed when the tracklist and lp breakdown was first published. | |

LP 9 side 1 is brilliant. All 4 songs are 10/10. My favourite LP side on the Vault selection LP's. | |

There's Something I Like About Being Your Fool what a good song, with his reggae grrove it wors so well without sounding like pastiche or something. | |

I am sad I can't get anywhere near the wavelength of people who like Emotional Pump and I Need A Man. These songs sound nearly the same to me. And there's a ton of songs from 87-92 that remind me of them strongly. What's the appeal? It feels so boring to me. But I've become pretty obsessed with Promise To Be True and TSILABYF. And I find myself humming Wally a lot. That ending is just really great at this fidelity. Hearing his low register howls deep in the mix. The solo. A real grower for me but I'm pretty sold. | |

Listening to Wally, it feels like a combination of a Parade outtake and Adonis & Bathsheba | |

They are meant for folks that like to move them hips and can cut a rug. When I hear those songs I can literally see the dances I would be hitting on those horn stabs in the club. Straight Jacket Funk Affair

What is taken for tape warble on Wally is intentional. Prince is drunk, it is meant to convey that feeling. | |
