Hi. I'd like to bend your ear if I may. I'm going back to the UK soon and I'm trying to get my unreleased stuff together on a collection of CDRs. I've been on the computer since 9am (it's now 5:32pm here) listening to tracks and reading thru the back pages of DMSR trying to pin a year to each song. Please help me out with some years and info for these following tracks:

2 B Alive (fake?)

5 Women, Sarah, Old Friends For Sale (orig. ones without overdubs)

17 Days (Damn!), Mama, Purple Rain, nameless instrumental, showering beauty (Intimate Moments? Year?)

1000 Hugs & Kisses

Allegiance

Climax (instr. and bass track)

Cookie Jar

Don't Say U Love Me

Electric Man (? Of U in the making?)

Schoolyard

Snowman

Fuschia Light

I Can't Love U Anymore

I Wonder (90 or 91?)

Livin' 2 Die

Loving You (...Loving Yet... rock number - status quo esque )

Parlor Games, Penetration, Rootzie Kazootie, R U Legal Yet, Dopamine Rush... (1988 or 1990s? For '24' right? Was it released?)

The P

Stone

Holy River Instrumental

Question Of U Instrumental

Thieves In The Temple acoustic guitar

...
..
.

Here's a trio that's been bugging me so much:

Witness 4 The Prosecution - Rough guitar rock one and bouncy version

We Can Funk - Heavy gritty one and bouncy version

Wonderful Ass - long intro one 9 mins + and 6 mins shorter version

When were these tracks done?

I know I'm asking for a lot but I have tried to do my research. I'm just completely spent after looking up 150 odd songs already. I've drawn a blank with these ones above so please help me if u can, even if it's just one or two songs.

I'll be your best friend.

Come on, 21 views and I know that per 21 orgers there are at least 15 Prince nerds.

Please?

I'm doing this off the top of my head and it's by no means exact, but I hope this makes it easier for you:


"B Alive (fake?)"
yes

"5 Women, Sarah, Old Friends For Sale (orig. ones without overdubs)"
'Old Friends 4 Sale': Parade era track
'5 Women': D&P era track
'Sarah' Emancipation: era track

"17 Days (Damn!), Mama, Purple Rain, nameless instrumental, showering beauty (Intimate Moments? Year?)"
Piano session from 1983, engineered by Peggy Mc Creary.

"1000 Hugs & Kisses"

"I Wonder (90 or 91?)"

"Livin' 2 Die"

"Loving You (...Loving Yet... rock number - status quo esque )"
I think you mean 'Hard To Get' (from The Rebels sessions)

"Parlor Games, Penetration, Rootzie Kazootie, R U Legal Yet, Dopamine Rush... (1988 or 1990s? For '24' right? Was it released?)"
1993-1994. From the unreleased second '24' Madhouse album.

"Witness 4 The Prosecution - Rough guitar rock one and bouncy version"
From the Dream Factory sessions. The later "bouncy" version likely from October 1986.

"We Can Funk - Heavy gritty one and bouncy version"
1986. The later "bouncy" version likely from 1990-1991.

"Wonderful Ass - long intro one 9 mins + and 6 mins shorter version"
Both are Dream Factory era leftovers, although never intended for said project.



Hope that helps.
