*[[Our Destiny]] and [[Roadhouse Garden]], segued together as one track were never considered for [[Album: Purple Rain|Purple Rain]], as the albums release date in 1984 conflicts with the recording of these songs. They were played live together at a [[07 June 1984|7 June 1984 birthday show]], but were initially worked on in the studio as separate tracks. [[Our Destiny]] dates from early June 1984 and [[Roadhouse Garden]] used the basic tracks of [[07 June 1984|7 June 1984]] live version and was worked on later in June. The lead vox on this studio take of [[Our Destiny]] are by [[Lisa Coleman]], but it was also recorded with [[Jill Jones]] singing the lead.

*[[Possessed]] is presented here as the '1983 version', but it is in fact the version recorded in March 1984. The 1983 version, part of which can be heard as an instrumental in the movie [[Film: Purple Rain|Purple Rain]], was recorded with the full band at the [[St. Louis Park Warehouse|The Warehouse]] in St. Louis Park, Minnesota in mid 1983, while the version here was a solo-effort by [[Prince]] done at [[Sunset Sound]] in Hollywood, California. It is unclear why the version here is attributed to be the 1983 version.

*[[Wonderful Ass]] dates from early 1983 and was recorded at [[Prince]]'s [[Kiowa Trail Home Studio]] in Chanhassen. The song was written about [[Vanity]] and while it may have been considered for the movie at some point, it never made it to any configuration, possibly in part due to the fact [[Vanity]] left the [[Prince]] camp and would no longer be in the movie.
