The album was compiled on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/January_22|22 January 1986]], but was abandoned when [[Film: Under The Cherry Moon|Under The Cherry Moon]] and other projects demanded [[Prince]]'s full attention. |
The tracks included were all jazz-funk instrumentals, and were mostly improvised during the sessions. [[Eric Leeds]] was featured prominently, and the plan was to not include mention of [[Prince]]'s input when the album was planned for release (as was the case with the later [[Madhouse]] albums). | The tracks included were all jazz-funk instrumentals, and were mostly improvised during the sessions.
