Here are my notes on which version are included on the cassette. These version are consistent across ‘Chocolate Box’, ‘Wonderboy’, ‘1986’, ‘1987’ and ‘Box O’ Chocolates’, apart from Crystal Ball where SaTim used an updated source on ‘1987’

1) Crystal Ball (unreleased edit with strings – not the long version)
2) Last Heart (As released)
3) Strange Relationship (Dream Factory edit)
4) Others Here With Us (Early Parade version - assumed)
5) Old Friends 4 Sale (Early Parade version – assumed) ...segues into...
6) All My Dreams (Early Parade version - assumed)
7) Wonderful Ass (Wendy and Lisa version)
8) Neon Telephone
9) Witness (early version without backing vocals or horns)
10) Movie Star (uncut version as also found on Dream Factory) ...segues into...
11) A Place In Heaven (Prince vocal. Movie Star dialogue included over intro)
12) Starfish and Coffee (Dream Factory edit without bell)
13) The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker (As released)
14) Joy In Repetition (unsegued)
15) Data Bank (finished mix)
16) Girl Of My Dreams ...segues into...
17) Can’t Stop This Feeling I Got ...segues into...
18) We Can Funk (Version included as part of the trio. Not the revised mix.)
19) All Day All Night (finished mix)

has anyone put this together and listened to it in order, keeping in mind that it may be an album config?

how much flow does it have? is it indeed KICKING the flow? or does it limply plod along?

might do that tonight, sounds like a fun project

I think you're overthinking it. This is Chocolate Box and Wonder Boy highlights compiled on one tape.



The funniest part of this post is that Prince probably made some girl a mixtape once, didn’t think much of it, that tape later made its way to bootleggers, and 35 years later, a crowd (including one of the worst Prince haters online) is debating whether this constitutes a working prototype of an album that Prince never released.

There are 2 different Neon Telephone mixes circulating btw. (the second one is the one where Prince sings "Shoop-Doo-Doop" at the beginning. wink
Since the other mix was circulating earlier, it's my guess that the first mix was on the tape.
