Understanding album Prince in Europe made her famous and helped him in the US for breakthrough! Amazing: This album was sewn with hot needle. The CD contains Heftlein example of text that are not heard because Prince has some songs at the last minute even shortened so that Warner Bros. was able to bring out a single record (= about 45 minutes of playing time). Even the grandiose "When Doves Cry" takes its place on the board of this ad hoc decision manner. Prince keyboardist Dr.Fink remembers that the band ("The Revolution") already covered, the soundtrack to the film was finished when Prince them imagined this (even rehearsed) song and pressed even into the album concept. Other curiosities: From "Computer Blue" exist not only more 10+ minutes long demo versions, but also a completely clean produced, knotless long-wheelbase version, the almost brutal "down" was afterwards -ediert. From "The Beautiful Ones" there is a verse about a longer top version, making the already extremely good song even better. On the "Purple Rain" Prince melody somewhere once draufgesungen a completely different song. And the strange number on the reverse of the LP A page can be defined by Komputer and CD course make it clear: "Hello how are U, I am fine, cause I know, the Lord is coming"! For album actually includes some exquisite B-sides of successful singles, one of which in turn ausproduzierte "finished" alternate versions exist. I recall the "Purple Rain" B-side "God," which is also available in a long instrumental version. Excellent! A few of these rarities, there are fortunately on "The Hits / The B-Sides," "Erotic City (Extended Remix)" as a CD maxi-single. Other things lie dormant until now in the archives. Why? Unfortunately, Warner Bros. has not been able to decide a reasonable remastered version with all of these "other" songs and long versions on 2CDs to publish. With the album have already made millions of dollars, it has long since paid off a hundred thousand times, neither Prince nor Warner had something to lose in a "New Edition". Too bad - but we fans have patience.
