Track List:
01. The Glamorous Life (1983)
Initial tracking took place on 27 December 1983 at Sunset Sound, and the song was originally intended for Apollonia 6 until Prince began to work with Sheila E. in February 1984, at which time he set the song aside for her.
02. She’s Always In My Hair (1983)

Although credited to Prince and the Revolution, the track is a solo performance by Prince.
03. Ice Cream Castles (instr.) (1984)
Initial tracking took place on 13 January 1984 at Sunset Sound.
Jesse Johnson stated, “Morris & I recorded a song name “Old & Ingnorant” in Mpls. The next day Morris & I fly out to meet Prince In LA, at Sunset Sound.
He dug it and the track was rerecorded, rewritten, and became “Ice Cream Castles”. Prince kept telling me: “It’s so cool how you played the bass on the AND
instead of the 1″. Great compliment even though at that time I didn’t know what he was talking about. Yeah of course I do now!”
04. Paisley Park (instr.; different song) (1984)
Unreleased instrumental song recorded on 9 March 1984 at Sunset Sound. Apart from its title the song has no relation with the song Paisley Park.
It features drums, bass and a keyboard pattern from the Yamaha DX-7 synth.
05. When Doves Cry (1984)
Rehearsal from 1984.
06. Next Time Wipe The Lipstick Off Your Collar (1984)
Sheila E.’s vocals were recorded in the first few days of April 1984 at Sunset Sound. Next Time Wipe The Lipstick Off Your Collar is notable for featuring the first use of violin (by Novi Novog) and accordion (by Nick DeCaro) on a Prince-related track.
07. The Dance Electric (1984)
Initial tracking for Prince’s initial version took place on 17 August 1984. Prince reportedly gave the song to André Cymone after Cymone’s mother asked Prince for a song.
In 2017 Prince’s own version was released as the first track on the From The Vault & Previously Unreleased disc of a Deluxe release of Purple Rain.
08. The Screams Of Passion (1984)
Initial tracking took place on 19 August 1984 at the Flying Cloud Drive Warehouse in Eden Prairie. Prince’s original studio version, missing strings.
09. Around The World In A Day (1984)
The track was first written and recorded by David Coleman (Lisa Coleman’s brother) in June 1984, when given two days of studio time at Sunset Sound as a birthday gift from Prince. When Prince heard the resulting track, he loved it and wanted to include it on his next album. He re-recorded the track and made some musical and lyrical changes. Basic tracks for Prince’s version were recorded on 16 September 1984 at Flying Cloud Drive Warehouse.
10. Our Destiny (Jill Jones) (1984)
Unreleased track, initially recorded during Prince and the Revolution’s concert on 7 June 1984 at First Avenue in Minneapolis, MN, USA, during the same show where the basic tracks for Roadhouse Garden and All Day, All Night were also recorded. Sessions with horn players and strings were organized and both Lisa Coleman and Jill Jones added a lead vocal to the track, replacing Prince’s vocals. Prince was not present for these sessions. This is the studio version with Jill Jones vocal and horn & string overdubs.
11. Roadhouse Garden (1984)
Although tracked separately in the studio, the track seems to have purposively conjoined with Our Destiny. This is the case for the live version and the two songs (using the same four-on-the-floor bass drumbeat) were also mixed together segueing into one another in the studio rendition. Roadhouse Garden is not known to have been considered for inclusion on Prince’s next album, Around The World In A Day.
12. Mutiny (1984)
Prince’s original studio version, using an alternate mix from the final release. While specific recording dates are not known, initial tracking took place in late June 1984 at the Flying Cloud Drive Warehouse.
13. Dear Michaelangelo (1985)
Solo version by Prince, before studio overdubs with Sheila E. bandmembers. Initial tracking took place in January 1985 at Master Sound, Atlanta, GA, USA.
14. Toy Box (instr.) (1985)
Early instrumental version. Initial tracking took place in January 1985 at Master Sound, Atlanta.
