Bootleg questions
GReneg8844
1) Which Time album did Prince intend "Movie Star" to be on? Did Morris turn it
down?
2) And I STILL don't understand how tunes recorded in Prince's own house
(Uptown) can end up as bootlegs. Is he behind his own bootlegs or are the
people he invited to his house to engineer the sessions dishonest people?
I'm interested to see what you all think. Thanks.

More than likely you have some greedy (and thankfully so) people on your hands
here. That and I am sure Prince passes out some tapes to friends who copy them
for another friend "This is just for you, it goes no farther than you" etc.
and so on and so on. This stuff always finds away out there though. Not just
with Prince. The theory of him releasing the stuff himself has been tossed
around quite a bit but there is no way Prince could put out the good quality
and nicley packaged stuff that say Moonraker does.

Invited into his house???? DISHONEST??? Listen man.. NO ONE
INVITES>. Ppl get PAID to do what they are good at and THAT's why
they get "invited".. When you mix.. SOME Engineers like to test what
their mixes sound like on car systems.. That means dub a cassette
down / DAT / CDR and jump in the car and listen...
BUT the MAIN way this stuff gets out is this...
Prince records a demo.. Engineer dubs a copy... Mixdown engineer
dubs a copy of his mixes... In the meantime a Band member asks for a
copy to be slipped in his bag when Prince is not looking.... Send to
Publishing Co.... That's ANOTHER copy sent from DESK TO DESK getting
logged and cataloged... Somewhere down the line the tape gets
taken...
A new album project gets sent to the mastering co. Engineer make a
master disc and a few test discs.. One goes home with him.. etc...
New LP demo's gets sent to a lable... An executive gives the tape to
a nephew who loves Prince / Accuaintance who gets him drunk enough to
give him the tape (Yes I'm telling your story you punk A*s b*tch!)
OR MY FAVORITE!!!!!
Prince likes a girl.. Gives said girl a tape of stuff... New girl
tommorrow night will get another tape... ETC. ETC. ETC!!!!!!!!
So how do these ppl become DISHONEST???????? Looks to me like Prince
gives the stuff out most of the time! How do I know??? I have A FEW
of those actual tapes he GAVE to girls!!!!!!!

If you ask me. I Believe he sold some of the stuff to the bootleg companies
when he was a "slave" but he decided to stop after he got out of his WB
contract. and Now since theyre(Bootleggers) releasing better quality stuff
than prince is doing now. he doesnt want bootlegs..
just me 2 cents
