He was already mastering this song during the heart of the Purple Rain frenzy. His song writing was always years ahead. And just like this, there's proof of that. Years ahead 🙏🏼 An absolute master of his trade. As he said, he doesn't play music. He IS the music ♥️ Miss him dearly
I think we often forget Prince was just a human. Yes, one with a drive to excel above the rest but still human. Hearing him speak and instruct his band is a delight. What a treasure and thank you for sharing this! The world will never be the same without him. 🎸💜😢
WOW... I love to hear these live rehearsals when he was so young and full of life and spunk you know! He had that INCREDIBLE drive to constantly GIVE something amazing to the world in his music! I miss him so much!
@@navinmaceosmallberries8201 Thing about it is you wouldn't of even left that comment if you didnt believe in your heart that there IS a GOD and you better get to know him! You are walking around a corrupt world TOTALLY UNPROTECTED! NOT wise sir dont rule out somthing that you have no knowledge of
I only discovered Prince in my 50's so grateful for it. He really was a gift to us all his many talents. The other ironic part is that my youngest son looks like him but taller.
Amazing. The word talent doesn't even come close to this enigma of pure genius named Prince. Here's a song we heard in 87 he made a few years earlier - just TOO much music. WOW. Prince we miss you so.
Prince so young and great !!! Gave so much to the music world!! Miss him so much 😥😥😓. There was no stopping him he know why GOD put him here and what a Blessing he is and was !!! We miss you Our Prince 😩
Great stuff right here! Never disappointed by what Prince did. He will forever be in my heart and soul. Rehearsals are phenomenal and should be released. ❤️ I miss him terribly
Man u said it. Prince B-sides : 17 days ,Erotic City, Irresistible B****, God, horny toad, how come u don't call me anymore (Alicia keys did a good cover) etc, etc were the Bomb!!! My favorite is Another lonely Christmas. DON'T listen to that song if u been drinking, you WILL do the ugly cry. 😂🤣
@Tony Wendy and Lisa lie just as much as trump .every since prince transitioned their lies have been epic on what they have written yet when u listen to their albums their bland and dismissive
@@pettyceddy9538 Exactly, if they were so important, why did P remove most of their contribution to Strange Relationship? My favorite evolving lie is: he didn't like The Beatles at all, they introduced him to The Beatles and he's a fan, and then they all LOVED The Beatles? I'd love to hear the studio version pre-W&L of Strange Relationship.
@@matthewhawkins2858 Wendy and Lisa contribution to strange relationship is on the recoded sitar and flute they didn’t add much to that track .dez Dickerson contributed more to prince music than those lying hags
It's sad that when Prince was alive he took all of his music ( & the music of his artist ) off UA-cam. Now we have all the videos but no Prince. Check out Jesse Johnson's Donnie Simpson/ B.E.T. interview.
I agree, as a fan, it's sad. But as an artist, i so embrace Prince's commitment to protecting himself from getting robbed, whether it was by record companies or by downloadable technology; and his commitment to helping other artists (like Chappelle) do the same.
@@Nkosinati I hear you, but It didn't effect the people he was trying to prove a point to. Only his fans suffered. Taking his music off YT didn't change anything with the industry & the music is back up.
Yeah Prince was still working on the lyrics .... @ 2:23 he's singing "but i i i got something 4 yo' ass" ... LOL, love these recordings, love him 2 death 💜 O(+> 4ever
He had this song in the shop since 84? That’s crazy. New Jack Swing wouldn’t be popular until the late 80s early 90s the fact that he had a proto 90s new Jack song in 84 is insaneeee
@@victorambe3885 minor scale being asked by a modern recording "artist.' Since my personal belief is they have NO concept of chords minor,major or any other variety.
Rehearsals where he's just barking out chord changes and plays with the lyrics are so much fun. A true master.
At this time, the Master version lyrics might not've been complete..
I’m pretty sure he was spacing out on the lyrics. Probably because he was busy directing the band.
Omg I so much agree 🔥
He shouts "D Minor", and then everybody plays something differently / different keys/chords? Is that how it works? If so: magic.
A Prince rehearsal is better than most performers concerts.
No shit!!! This kicked ass!! Just wished it was a video and not just audio.
This version of the song is much better than the studio version I feel like, and that guitar solo at the end omg
Fo sho!!!!
Truth
Amen to that.

It's nice hearing his natural speaking voice when he's with the band.

this comment made me cry rip prince
"That's Somethin' For Your Azz" - Prince Funny 😂
This cat !!!!!!!!!! Better than the album version ! R.I.P. to the greatest.
WOW... I love to hear these live rehearsals when he was so young and full of life and spunk you know! He had that INCREDIBLE drive to constantly GIVE something amazing to the world in his music! I miss him so much!
Omg I so much agree 🔥🔥🔥🔥
He definitely knew where he wanted the music 🎶 to go. Oh God I just love to hear him rule that guitar 🎸.
So focused and his ambition was endless. Baby I'm waiting for you to play that guitar 🎸 for me. You know what I'm talking about don't you baby? 💜💜😉
I am looking for the Prince More Bounce to the Ounce Sound Check. Where could I find this and other rare recordings?
Beautifully said! I miss him so much it still hurts. I pray Prince has peace now. Love him forever! 💜❤️❤️❤️💜💜
That solo! It’s like God just plugged in his guitar and started to shred.... oh that’s exactly what happened!
💜
Except "God" doesn't exist. So sadly in reality it's just Prince playing.

I love Prince but he is not God.
Prince was such a master instrumentalist. He even directs and 'plays' the entire band as if they are another instrument in his hands
He was an INCREDIBLE band leader. 💜
Truly missed by all of us and may he rest in peace...
He makes me fall in love with him over and over again!! Loving this version sooo much!!💜💜💜
This is better than anything I ever heard. Raw the Guitar solo will make you wet
What a guitar solo! On guitar he was second to none!
This vicious guitar solo gives me fever 💜.

welcome to the REAL. ♥
how are you just discovering him?????? WHO HAVE YOU BEEN LISTENING TOO????

Prince we miss you so.
Greatest artist ever!
Left an emptiness that no one else can fill
Pure music at it's best! I loved this guy! Greatest musician we ever had!
hands down the greatest musician

Greatest artist ever!
Alan Leeds said Prince was never going to get old..He will always be remembered as the bambi eyed youth
Love hearing him instruct his band💜💜💜💜
The best version of this song.
Great stuff right here! Never disappointed by what Prince did. He will forever be in my heart and soul. Rehearsals are phenomenal and should be released. ❤️
I miss him terribly
"Funky Bob....funkay". Actually verbally said the word funky, more funky. What a genius.
Man I miss his creatively genius approach to music.
This album was a masterpiece.
TRUE STATEMENT… sign of the times is a classic!!!! Way better than Michael Jackson Bad album IMO
NEVER WAS PRINCE IS NEVER WAS 💜
@@tonyshark3087 You mean Camille!
“Go ahead on, Ed!”
OMG...my favorite song. Man I miss him. 💜😢💜😢💜😢
A real true musical genius!!!
Never heard this! Been collecting bootlegs since '82. Keep 'em coming! God bless!
It's on the Sign of the Times album.
@@rollinwitdaholyghost1607 I meant this particular bootleg version. LOL. I've heard many different outtakes but this one is very different. 👍
@@jeffs9300 gotcha.👍
@@rollinwitdaholyghost1607 LOL. You scamp.

DON'T listen to that song if u been drinking, you WILL do the ugly cry. 😂🤣
1984??? Come on NOW!!! This is fkin amazing.
"Honey if u left me....I couldn't stand it....but I got something for that ass" I would have been laughing
best part
In my top couple of favorite songs of his. He is installed in my pantheon of the most great, and I will miss him forever.
Prince released this song back in 87 on the Sign Of The Times album .
This is already one of my favorite Prince songs and hearing this only pushed it higher up there! Thanks for posting! Peace!
Keep in mind Prince was only 26 years old when he was recording this, that blows me away.
I love his signature guitar sound!
I can't tell you how thankful I am for this. i listen to it almost daily.
I didn't know that Strange Relationship was this old? He was a genius and I love ❤️ the extended version on Sign O the Times Deluxe!
Neither did I - he calls out to drummer Bob, so sure could be -84

One of my fav Prince jams of all time
i cry and comment every time i watch this I miss this man so much it hurts STILL
Same
I will always love you Prince! You left an imprint on my heart since my teens! We need you back! 💜💜❤️❤️💔💔
Time to just enjoy his legacy, heal from losing him and start doing alot more of #Love4OneAnother 💜
Perfectly said because that's what Prince was telling us the most thru his music and words💜🍷🦋
It's sad that when Prince was alive he took all of his music ( & the music of his artist ) off UA-cam.
Now we have all the videos but no Prince.
Check out Jesse Johnson's Donnie Simpson/ B.E.T. interview.
Yeah...so sad because even more people would have gotten to listen and 💕💖 his genius musical talent 🎸🎶
there's a few live videos.. las vagas etc.
@@jedigeekbiker I'll ck them out.

Tickling those ivories..... He was amazing 💜☔
He was gifted beyond words to describe !!!
That sounds 👌 🔥 so funky PRINCE 🤴knows how to call them the first time He's 👍
This is one of my favorite songs from that album...nice to hear a rehearsal of this
The most beautiful ever. Miss him.
My favorite band? Why Prince of course...the rest of them just played what he produced/composed/arranged and performed himself.
Agreed, Mike.
I must spend 15 hours a weeks listening to all the soundboard material coming out. I can’t keep up. If only l had another spare 15 hours.
One of my favorite songs 💜✝️💜... this sounds so sick thanks for the upload
Yeah Prince was still working on the lyrics .... @ 2:23 he's singing "but i i i got something 4 yo' ass" ... LOL, love these recordings, love him 2 death 💜 O(+> 4ever
omg I love this song! I miss the young prince days like this! rip purple one...💜💕
I miss this man so damn much!💜💔💜
Love this version!!
W
At least two years OLDER than what we knew.. VERY NICE! With Guitar, too!!!
THEY NEED TO RELEASE THIS VERSION.
ikr I totally agree this is better
Yeah,when the clubs reopen
I've been a fan since the beginning 🤣😃🎹
I just love his rehearsals,
I would have loved to have been at any one of them.
Miss This MAN💔
I miss my baby Prince. Rest well!
That guitar such a master
This period of time always reminds me of the infamous Memphis radio interview.
Merry Christmas to us!!!! Pure Nectar!
TIL THE END OF TIME !!!!!!PRINCE LIVES WE LOVE AND MISS YOU !!!!!
Anything Prince is fantastic. Love my Pixy. God Please let him rest in Peace.🙏🙏🙏

He actually wrote it in ‘82 already 💜💜💜
Kasper Kapteijn crazyyy
No one can takes his place. People that compare MJ to him are just ignorant of this guys genius. Love u Prince. Mozart couldn’t get a look in with u💜💚
PRINCE: GOD OF MUSIC!
Master at work
Love the guitar solo. I wish the studio version had this feel.
He truly was an underrated guitarist, whom epitomized and mastered 💪the art of music.
Too 💖sexy, on the 1 Ya''ll say it✌
Funky times and memories in my mind along a note of D Minor electrically struck by The Soloist and his powerful band. Once again, it's on!
So dope… an anti-pop pop song… funk-rock-jazz… absolute masterpiece. ☮️
MASTER WITHOUT A PLAN🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶❤️🎶🎶🎶🎵🎵🎵🎵😳🎵😮🎵🎵🎵😎😎JUST DREAM IT OUT 🎵🎵🎶🎶🎶🎶. OOOOHH YEEAAHH. 😎
Better than the album version
Listen to the master at work.
Prince: "E minor."
99.9% of all recording "artists.": "Whats a miner have to do with a keyboard?!?!?!"
Pretty sure he said d minor
@@victorambe3885 minor scale being asked by a modern recording "artist.' Since my personal belief is they have NO concept of chords minor,major or any other variety.
There will never be another.💜💜💜
That guitar solo is so fucking good I can’t get over it, it just says everything you don’t need words for that bridge
Brilliant 👏
He switches up and it's like a remix Live playing
I love it! prince and mj are my two biggest inspirations in the music I make.
This should be on a album the jazz version
Wah, gr8 version! I love the timbres both his voice and the guitar solo n shit. Love from Brazil 🎉
hearing this makes me with their was a Ray Charles Prince piano/vocal collab. They both had interesting and, I think, complimentary tones.
Much Gratitude .
Long Lived The Prince Rogers Nelson. Amen
Love this rehearsal! Thanks for uploading
Pure Nostalgia💜
Wow is there anymore please !!,😍👍😃
Nice version. It’s more sad and serious. I wonder if this was about Vanity or Manuela or Susannah.
Manuela was probably in kindergarten when he wrote this. 😂
can not believe this is 84
but nice!
Live rehearsal is dope AF sounding..sax on point 💜0(+>
Another great version
Prince is a guitar god. Periodt.🎸💜🎸 2:56
How I miss him damn !!!!!!!
This version would have been perfect a song for purple rain back in 1984...
I like it...That was raw....good stuff 👏
LOVE that this was posted on my birthday!!!!!!
Eddie “ Funky” M!! Go Head!
