Prince opened my eyes to how awesome the world and life can be.. straight up i miss this man who i never knew i WAS a die hard rap hip hop fan but Prince had expanded my musical taste vastly and exponentially and i love, respect, and admire him for it.. plus he loved God, also something missing in todays artistry

@@domigriffin340 'It's Gonna Be A Beautiful Night' was recorded on Nov. 22, and 23 1986 according to studio forms at Sunset Sound. So sorry, you're wrong.
Damn indeed. When Prince did his hard funk in 85 and 86 the sound of his live performances sounded so full. Sometimes his albums could be more high fidelity than bass driven but this is a groove and half and he didn't release it even on a b side! A lot of artists back then would have sold their mother to be that prolific and good.
Speaking on my own behalf, as an American Black woman born in 1992, I GET IT!!!! I am grateful to have embarked on my Prince journey at a very young age by way of my father being an AVID fan!!!! I understand wholeheartedly your sentiments in hoping the people as a collective encounter Prince’s art & acknowledge it as the FORCE FIELD that it is!! PRINCE is why I now understand why ppl care about Rembrandt, why ppl care about Beethoven, why people care about Mozart, or Bach, or Monet!!! Because in 500+ years, PRINCE WILL STILL BE RELEVANT !!!
The person who uploaded this funky jam to UA-cam! This Prince fan thanks you! Wow this genius! Greatest music genius Prince! Also Levi Seacer Jr. killing on the bass and Prince killing on the guitar! I freaking love this!
When I would go see this dude I would be blown away by how tight he had the band. They literally sounded like tape. Beyond perfect. And he could direct them with eye movements. He would show this off. He would make them do crazy stuff. I saw this time after time & it never changed. They were always flawless. Prince did that.
This is so funky. The estate really needs to start releasing albums of recordings like this from the vault and full live shows on audio & video. They're moving much too slow.
This is from The Flesh sessions recorded Dec 85'/Jan 86'! Levi on bass, Sheila on Drums, Eric Leeds on sax, also playing during these sessions were Wendy and Lisa!👍👍🎶🎼🔥
@@palludvigfinstad9354 actually Wendy and Lisa are on this song. You hear Wendy’s guitar when Prince isn’t doing that crazy solo and then Wendy does the same solo towards the end in the background and the rhythm guitar in between. Lisa is on the synthesizer. This would’ve been a tight ass band with Wendy, Lisa, Sheila, Levi, Eric, Bonnie, Dr Fink, Miko still as second guitarist and Cat, Wally and Brooks
Prince opened my eyes also! God bless on the kick! Me too! 2years next month. I feel blessed every day that I got away from the life! Most don’t & for that I’m grateful! Prince was very spiritual; the more you dig into his words the more you will see. I’ve been a fan since 83 & I miss his presence in this world. He was a man who could’ve brought peace. We need to more love in the world. Greed is gonna kill us all. The creator is in the All!
The actual title of this is "Love U 2". There were 3 titles (in addition to this one) recorded for "The Flesh" project that day; the others (which feature the same lineup) were titled "Most Strongest Whiskey," "Voodoo Who" and "U Gotta Shake Something."
Which ones consumed very strong pain killers and died afterwards?. It’s not crazy unexpected news that drugs kill. When they passed away the lesson for us was dang drugs kill anyone rich or poor. I should stay away from that. Heroin, opium, Fentanyl, morphine for regular use to treat pain is not a solution but a short term remedy with lethal and more painful consequences when used beyond prescriptive doses. Personally I never used narcotics to treat pain and never will. Our human bodies were not designed to use drugs. I believed that since I tripped frighteningly on LSD in high school and stopped using any man made drugs to escape reality right after that. Now I consume no drugs because God as Jesus accepted worldly suffering and didn’t shrink away from it even when Romans tried to minimize his pain by giving him wine to mitigate his pain while on the cross on nails. “And they offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not take it. “ in Mark 15:23. So wiser to not escape pain with drugs but treat it soberly. Do what Jesus did and you will be on God’s side. Don’t try to cheat your pain away. Deal with it naturally or talk to a Doctor and pray for your pain to go away.
Umm, no they were not. It was one of the many bands fronted by James Chance aka James White aka James Black. I saw them more than once back in the day along with his other bands The Contortions and The Flaming Demonics. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off_White en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Chance
@@jamestemple8970 ya know what, you're fucking right. This happens when you only slept for four hours having discussed KC with someone. Though I did mention in that Convo that these grooves did remind me if those early KC albums (off the coast ..., Fresh Fruits).
James White gets a name check 4:30 🤩;just diligently knowing who was “on the scene”, who he was competing with. Musically, this was & probably still is “next level”. Listen to Kiss (his breakthrough to a mainstream audience) and it’s funky as hell, without a bass. No one had done that before & maybe this jam might have contributed to that (cut out what’s not necessary).
this was just to test their stamina. #CloreenBaconSkin ( or even #Tricky ) this is NOT. But still a keeper. & Nice graphic. Post the 45min full version of #TheWar; it was an official release, why’s it so hard to find?
I knew Prince was the greatest when he was still alive. After he passed, I realised he was greater than that 😥
Oh shit.....

Gongratulations for 2 years of being clean. Be encouraged.
Peace and be wild!
U ain't the only one brother! Prince and his music helped me get thru my parent's divorce moving to CA and surviving my teenage years!❤

This lays the foundation for the song It's Gonna Be a Beautiful Night on the Sign of the Times album
You're right
No u are wrong it’s gonna be a beautiful night was already done
Not the same bass pattern, similar drum feel...
@@domigriffin340 'It's Gonna Be A Beautiful Night' was recorded on Nov. 22, and 23 1986 according to studio forms at Sunset Sound. So sorry, you're wrong.
I agree, I hear the same horn progression as 'Beautiful Night'. Some people don't have an fine ear for music and will disagree, but that's ok.
Fonky!! Prince worked his bands hard. And they were tight!! "Real music by real musicians" - Prince quote
PRINCE FONK FONK FONKAY💥BOOM🔥🔥🔥🎶 THEY JAMMIN 👏🏽
Parade was my favorite Prince era. That's when he started adding more horns, which was the beginning of much fuller sound.
I have been listening to this for the past three weeks and am not bored of it, how is this possible 🤔
HA! Got YOU beat! I’ve been listening for 3 MONTHS!!!!😁🥳😛
Simple it's PRINCE 💜
Prince was never boring. A little odd at times but never boring.
Oh it's possible because it's the Purple One 💜... And I'm listening to it again right now
PRINCE. That's how! lol
The greatest funk groove I've ever heard, so happy to enjoy this masterclass

It's 7:00 a.m. and I'm funking in my kitchen waiting for coffee to brew. It's going to be a good day. 💜
I have one hope/wish/dream…. That the world gets to comprehend and appreciate the depth of his gift! This is complete fire!!!!!

If I had one bass groove to be abandoned with on that deserted island, THIS IS IT!
it's funny when you drop out the bass and the song sound empty...and then when he start playing the bass again it's like album material instantly :D
When that guitar enters the groove...
🔥DAMN🔥‼️
yeah prince was and STILL is the master of the GROOVE...#REALTALK
Incredible to get this sound from a four-member band. Incredible.

I like what you did there! From one Prince fam to another... *high-five*🖐🏾💜
I saw James Black & The Whites a few times back in the day. Funky as all hell.
Great jam session . Prince's bands were always tight .
That Voice
Prince Sheila E. Levi Seacer, Jr. Eric Leeds 4 OF THE BADDEST MUSICIANS EVER
You got that right!! 🔥
agree, 100%
sounds like it,s gonna be a beautiful night. but when it comes to Prince u,ll never get tired of jamming these tracks
Tightest bands were Prince's. And that's a fact!!!💜💜💜💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃
We still have no idea how incredible Prince was/is. True GOAT
Damn Prince is so gorgeous 🥰🥰🥰
Ouch!
In a GREAT way… so fonky, I just fell on the floor and laid there for a while, smiling 😊

Oh mon dieu ! Comme c'est bon! Je connaissais la version de l'album mais il m'étonnera toujours ce petit Prince! 💜💜💜
Rhythm is Fabolous, it must be twisted just forever ,Damm 🌞
Funk engineers of the highest order… this joint is funkier than some dirty drawers
EXCELLENT!!!!!!!
The best is just so intoxicating and funky. He knew how to get your hips moving 💜
Aaahh man! All them contrasting sounds and then his voice aaahh!! It’s too much haha what a man
Sounds too good. I'm luvin' this groove.
This is the type of stuff the estate needs to put out !
What an absolute gem. 😎💜O(+>

That suit is yellow-nice and bright like his guitar tone. I hear some ‘movie star’ in it too. Great trip-thanks for posting.
Got my head noddin...
RAW as it gets! DAMN!
Nice suit!
Love these session-bootlegs. Hilarious that Prince references James Chance, a new york no wave artist that i listened to in the early 80'ties.
Damn. Sheila's kit is so phat.
THANK YOU FOR THAT FUNK🙏🏾🤟🏾✌🏾🫶🏾‼️💜💜💜
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SHARING 💜
Peee eeew! That's crazy skunk funky 🦨🦨💨
Wow, that guitar..
The guitar was brilliant actually!! It said nothing but supported the beat so well😳👍🏿🎼🎵🎶💜
It's crazy that James Brown, Prince, Michael Jackson, Rick James are all gone, and Quincy Jones, who's older than all of them, is still here.
Yea because he sucked the life outta his artists which is why he's still alive dudes a freaking vampire
And Maurice White (lead vocal) & Freddy White (drums) from Earth Wind & Fire, rip.
The crazy thing is that Sly Stone and George Clinton are alive

Jimmy Black and The Whites is actually a side project from August Darnell aka Kid Creole which this brand of funk is truly inspired by.
Prince actually wrote a song for Kid Creole and coconuts called : "The sex of it" check it out👍🏿its really funky!
Umm, no they were not. It was one of the many bands fronted by James Chance aka James White aka James Black. I saw them more than once back in the day along with his other bands The Contortions and The Flaming Demonics.

The beginnings of "Gonna be a beautiful night" perhaps? ☂
