The album is fine. You can't change history.
The tracks that are already on there made the album what it was and is. It is complete.

You know, a lot of the die-hard's such as ourselves, have a tendency to "blow off" Purple Rain because it was such a commercial hit. But that was some EXCELLENT material that came out of that project from beginning to end. There wasn't a single miss.

Classic and Historical time IMO.
I am convinced Beyonce's career would not be where it is, if she had dark skin.

Well it was on the b-side of the 12inch of Let's Go Crazy, so i'd hazard a guess at '84. could be '85 though. I can't remember confuse

Somebody mentioned Extraloveable above, that is not a Purple Rain era track. 1982/3 i think. On Testament i'm sure it states it was intended for Vanity6. If that's the case, why does he namecheck the Revolution on it?

confused edit

I also think Betcha By Golly Wow is a great song. boxed

you've never heard the original version, have you?


I have (by The Stylistics, right?), and it's the better version, but I love Prince's too. I just connect with it.

How Come... would be phenomenal to me if that piano wasn't so piercingly loud. Just ruins it.

Well, 'she's always in my hair' should be on ATWIAD not Purple Rain. smile

...and I wouldn't wanna add 'electric intercourse', because i'd then feel like removing 'the beautiful ones'. I just don't feel the two songs would work together on the same album.

In the end I think '17 days' would fit in on the album the easiest. nod

i TOTALLY AGREE WITH RIGHTEOUSONE. ELECTRIC INTERCOURSE AND BEAUTIFUL ONES ON THE SAME JOINT WOILDN'T WORK AS WELL. 17 DAYS HANDS DOWN

If Purple Rain was released before the final change it would have been:
Take me with U
The Beautiful ones
Computer Blue
Darling Nikki
God
Let's Go crazy
I would die for U
Baby I'm a star
Purple Rain


This could have been the next lp.

When doves cry
She's Always in My Hair
17 Days
All Day, All Night
Electric Intercoarse
Erotic City
Rasberry baret
The dance electric

If Prince had released this as a follow lp, this would have killed all of the wannabees copycats at that time. This would be a classic lp. In the same vein as 1999. Radio and clubs would bump this non stop, the streets would be colored with purple. Dig if U will a picture.....
