Basic tracking took place in late October 1993, at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota (in the same set of sessions as [[319]], [[Strawberries]] and [[Billy Jack Bitch]]). [[Ricky Peterson]] added additional keyboards and post-production work to the track. '''Gold''' was included as the eleventh and final track on an album configured in 1994 (unnamed, but considered to be an early configuration of [[Album: The Gold Experience|The Gold Experience]]). It was included as the 18th and final track (eleventh song) on March 1994 and May 1994 configurations of [[Album: The Gold Experience|The Gold Experience]], before being included as the twelfth and final song on a later 1994 configuration. The [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/October 13|13 October 1994]] configuration included '''Gold''' as the 20th and final track (13th song), before the track [[Days Of Wild]] and an accompanying [[NPG Operator#NPG Operator unreleased # 1|NPG Operator]] segue were removed from the album for release. | Basic tracking took place in late October 1993, at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota (in the same set of sessions as [[319]], [[Strawberries]] and [[Billy Jack Bitch]]).
