No... Neversin. I thought so, at least unofficially...(The reason why I'm asking this ? is that I mentionned this song to a friend of mine recently thinking I did not know it; he told me I knew it as it was a very well-known and widely bootlegged song, albeit sometimes known under a different name - that I forgot!!!

Damn... I thought you meant something completely different... But then yes, there is another title for "Moonbeam Levels" that retarded bootleggers conjured up instead of simply asking the title... It used to be also know as "A Better Place 2 Die"... Neversin. O(+>NIИ<+)O

It's been a while since I've heard it (unfortunately I couldn't copy it)... but I listened to it and wrote down the tracklist at the time (so I know I didn't make a mistake). Here's what I remember about it... 'Rave' was the same as the circulating boots (very close to the released version). 'If Had a Harem' was also the same as the circulating boots, I think. (though I do remember thinking it sounded very 'demo-ey' compared with the other tracks) 'The Voice Inside' segued into 'Melody Cool' (which had somewhat different lyrics) There was a big gap between 'Melody cool' and 'Stimulation' (which I think signified the split between side 1 and side 2) 'Stimulation' was a sleazy-grind kinda song. A bit like 'G-Spot' crossed with 'We Can Funk'. 'Elephants & Flowers' was the version with different lyrics that's circulating. 'God Is Alive' was very tight into 'Still Would Stand All Time'. (didn't actually segue, but there's absolutely no gap between the tracks). | |

the original recording of 'rave unto the joy fantastic' (song)
that i have is 5'20" long--it sounds as if the first few seconds of the song are missing. is this the one that's circulating or are there others? and furthermore, i thought 'stimulation' was a track of which people knew it existed, but which was not circulating? how about 'good judy girlfriend'? is that one circulating? don't need no reefer, don't need cocaine

It's difficult to give a concrete answer, as Prince often puts together many configurations of potential albums on cassette before the final running order is decided. Sometimes albums are concieved quite quickly (like Lovesexy) and the track- listing changes very little. Other times the title and tracklisting undergo massive changes before the album is released or shelved. There are still 'early configurations' of old albums comming to light for the first time even now. | |
