PURPLE MUSIC.

This feeling’s so good in every single way

Where’s that Australian interview where he’s going off on a host for talking s*** to his face? 😳

Live from paisley park prince & npg doing a 26 minute jam track called “ the war “ improvised 😎

“The War is a live track released on the stand-alone download and single The War by the New Power Generation. The track was first available as a Real Audio download on Love4OneAnother.com on 21 July 1998 before The War was sent on cassette in August 1998, to customers who had previously ordered Crystal Ball, free of charge. Some customers did not receive this, however, and some people who did receive it did not order Crystal Ball, so it is unclear how the mailing list was created. A promo CD single of The War was also available for purchase through 1-800 New Funk and online.
The track was recorded live at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota on 20 June 1998, am at a concert dubbed "The One". The War was the final track played, and lasted for 45 minutes. Even in its edited form, The War is 26:00, and holds the distinction of the longest released track by Prince and/or related artists. At one point during the track, a brief synth motif from Utopia is played; Utopia was in fact recorded earlier, but released six months later than The War.

the 1:50 mark on vagina

don't know how authenticate this is but looks interesting

Damn 😳 he’s going to have more reissues- deluxe editions than Pink Floyd,jethro Tull, Zappa,yes, trane, Dylan,Neil young, fleet wood Mac, Bowie, miles, in their wet dreams could never even conceive of.

Feels great

honestly excited for W2A more than the CB reissue and D&P SDE

It IS authentic, I believe.

I think Tony M’s best verse is on My Name Is Prince

Nah the first prince verse is f***ing nuts

My favourite Tony verses are the ones where he isn't featured on the track

Tony's outro on Jughead

Love Symbol Tony >>>>> Diamonds & Pearls Tony

Plus his contributions to Gett Off are great

musicology is so underrated

Batman Super Deluxe when

knowing the estate never

Batman soundtrack is for chads tbh, only nerds hate it
