can aanyone tell me how much of crystal ball is new stuff and which is old stuff its 4 discs

but u can get it as a five cd album ``

the 4 cd is boxed nicely ...but as a 5 cd package its not really packaged aint that sad

i`d like it if 1 of u could pleez tell me which is new material are there any magazines i could subscribe to i live in Manchester England

hi,
disc's 1,2,3 r all outtakes from previous albums there4 its old unreleased material until now , now being crystal ball ! disc 4 the truth all new material. disc 5 kamasutra was previously available from 1 800 new funk mail order.

so 4 disc set is 3 discs old material 1 disc new

and 5 disc set is 4 discs old material 1 disc new

but remember disc's 1,2,3 were only available previously as bootlegs.

hope this makes sense 2 u

cheers

didn't he re-record a lot of the older stuff to snuff out all the non-persona grata contributions as much as possible? Especially Good Love, which has been editted crazily to get rid of W+L and the Cloreen Baconskin, which has absolutely no vocal from Morris Day? Surely that is one man who could not keep quiet for 15 minutes.

persona non-grata...?...I'm tired.

Neither Wendy nor Lisa were featured as background vocalists on "Good Love". It was recorded after the Revolution was disbanded. Susannah and Jill did those vocals.

Also, Morris played drums on "Cloreen Baconskin" and no vocals were necessary since they were attempting to lay down a rhythm track for a future The Time recording.

Please correct any that are wrong:

1. Crystal ball - 1986, Dream Factory, Crystal Ball
2. Dream factory - 1985 - Dream Factory
3. Acknowledge me - 1993, Gold Experience
4. Ripopgodazippa, 1994 - Gold Experience
5. Lovesign - 1994, remix from cancelled EP/single
6. Hide the bone, 1994
7. 2morrow, 1996
8. So dark, (?) Original on Come, remade in 1994/5/6?
9. Movie star, 1986 (5?), Dream Factory
10. Tell me how U wanna be done, Dunno when mix was done, but Continental 1992 (were any mixes of The Continental made, I know it was gonna be a single)
12. Interactive - 1993, Glam Slam Uylsses, Come
13. Da bang - 1994/5/6?
14. Calhoun Square - 1993
15. What's my name - 1993 - Glam Slam Uylsses
16. Crucial - 1986 - The Dawn (Booklet says SOTT, but was it ever considered for Crystal Ball? Never seen it on a tracklist, maybe Prince just thought of putting it on for a while, but never put it on any configuration?)
17. Honest man - 1985 (?) SUCH a disappointment, I can't believe he put this on here, the instrumental piece from UTCM is one of my all time favourite Prince tracks.
18. Sexual suicide - 1985, Parade
19. Cloreen Bacon Skin, 1983, from Ice Cream Castles sessions
21. Good love - 1986 - Camille/Crystal Ball
22. Strays of the world - 1993 - Glam Slam Uylsses
23. Days of wild - 1993, Gold Experience
24. Last heart, 1986 - Dream Factory
25. Poom poom, 1995 (?)
26. She gave her angels - 1996
27. 18 and over - 1994
28. Ride - 1993
29. Get loose - 1994
30. P control - 1994, (remix done for possible single release?)
31. Make your Mama Happy (1986)
33. Goodbye - 1995, Emancipation


Ignore the numbering, I got it from Amazon and they listed several songs as two tracks, i.e. (1) Cloreen Backon, (2) Skin.
