The estate claimed it was not found. They wonder if he used the same master tapes for 84 version. "Keep on shilling for Big Pharm!" |

I've heard an early piano version, but I think it's from a rehearsal or soundcheck rather than a true demo. |

The 1999 Tour Rehearsal version is probably as close as we will get to hear it. Look for it online as it's pretty easy to find. It's a very bright, poppy, rocky vibe that has the same feel-good tempo. “To create something from nothing is one of the greatest feelings, and I would – I don’t know, I wish it upon everybody. It’s heaven.” – Prince |

That rehearsal is like an 83 prince preset version of this song lol
He made all the right calls in terms of how he changed the song
Always cool to see the development of his songs over the years |

OnlyNDaUsa is right - Michael Howe did an interview with the Superdeluxeedition website for the 1999 SDE and said so:
https://superdeluxeeditio...-material/
“The only potential omission, I mean something that I was looking for that is rumoured to exist is a 1982 studio version of ‘Raspberry Beret’, which I simply have not found – and this is conjecture, I don’t know with certainty – but I think it’s because the two inch master that ended up being released on Around the World in a Day was basically an embellished version or an overdubbed version of whatever Prince started in 82. So there’s no distinguishing characteristic, enough, to determine, at least from the track sheets and the notes, what might have been from 82…”
Edit: And this is another Michael Howe interview, talking about leaving off Extralovable and Lust U Always from the 1999 SDE

first that "Only" was a nod to me... and second, (and for real this time) he seemed to mean of the things they were looking for that they did not find. "Keep on shilling for Big Pharm!" |
