This piece in todayās NYT was sad to read. Apparently the film would be very revealing but the estate people thinking about the big bux are shutting it down.
what an incredible read
can you imagine the movie/series?.. I hope the article does what it is obviously trying to do and have everyone consider releasing it.
It feels like the world is owed it
Via princevault.com:
āFast Freddie the Roller Disco King [1979] was a 12-inch single by Little Anthony and the Imperials (as The Imperials), featuring Prince on guitar, synthesizer and keyboards. The basis of the song was recorded by Prince, PepĆ© Willie and AndrĆ© Cymone at Sound Palace Studios, New York, NY, USA. Vocal and instrumental overdubs were added later by Little Anthony and the Imperials. The b-side of that single is an early version of the track 10:15, called I Just Wanna Be Your Lovinā Man. It is unclear if Prince appears on that version too as a guitarist, like on Fast Freddie the Roller Disco King.
Stripped of its original overdubs, but with additional overdubs, the song was released as One Man Jam on 94 Eastās first collection of studio recordings Minneapolis Genius. One Man Jam has featured on every collection of 94 Eastās early recordings. 10:15 was as released in 2002 on the 94 East album: 94 East Featuring 10:15 & Fortune Teller Remix With Prince On Guitar.ā
Ive seen the Starfish & Coffee one but this this great
NOt seen before
Unreleased demo that Prince ant to Mark Moore. Sounds fantastic
The amount of unreleased music still sitting around on dats, tapes and CDRs is something that both intrigues and annoys me.
If you have it just do something with it! Youtube, soundcloud, small vinyl run or even Spotify. Just get it out there !*
*assuming its actually of interest to people and also not total shit
The estate is very protective over that ( and probably has all his stuff)
Also think thats what he wanted so Mark just playing a bit from a cassette wont get blocked
Yeah i get that in this situation with a Prince song heās a bit limited in what he can do but at least he shared it. Broadly speaking theres a lot of artists and DJs hoarding stuff people would love to hear
I think the Prince estate is more about the money than āprotectionā. I remember when he was alive that he was very protective of his own stuff, but as far as I know heās not got any children and his siblings have given the management over to third parties. There is no legacy gatekeeper or anything like that. They could probably use a better leader in that aspectā¦
I mean, they canned that Netflix documentary that took years to make, a crime against humanity if you ask me
Agreed, and again, I think itās all about the $$.
defintely
By protective I meant they block loads they arent getting $$$ for
