− | |introduction = '''An Honest Man''' is the sixth track on the second disc of [[Prince]] | + | |introduction = '''An Honest Man''' is the sixth track on the second disc of [[Prince]]’s 20th album [[Album: Crystal Ball|Crystal Ball]] (his fourth using the name [[File: SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Alias: Symbol]]). The album is not clearly divided between [[Prince]] tracks and [[File: SymbolSmallerBlue.png|link=Alias: Symbol]] tracks, but the liner notes' discussion of this track state "All vocals by [[Prince]]", so it is credited to [[Prince]] in this entry. While the released version was a truncated, a capella version, in 1986 a full-length instrumental version was included in the [[Film: Under The Cherry Moon|Under The Cherry Moon]] movie. |
Basic tracking likely took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/November_30|30 November 1985]] (on the same day as [[Mountains]] and [[Dream Factory]]) at the [[Washington Avenue Warehouse]] in Edina, Minnesota). Two versions were recorded that day, the first by [[Prince]] solely and the second with members of [[The Revolution]]. The 'a capella' version was created two weeks later at [[Sunset Sound]] in Hollywood, California, and it may have been considered as a brief opening track for the [[Album: Parade|Parade]] album, in the same vein as [[For You]] on the [[Album: For You|For You]] album. The [[Album: Crystal Ball|Crystal Ball]] liner notes state that the song is "inspired by [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kristin_Scott_Thomas Kristin Scott Thomas]' character Mary Sharon in [[Film: Under The Cherry Moon|Under The Cherry Moon]]." | Basic tracking likely took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/November_30|30 November 1985]] (on the same day as [[Mountains]] and [[Dream Factory]]) at the [[Washington Avenue Warehouse]] in Edina, Minnesota).
