− | While specific recording dates are not known, initial tracking took place in July 1987 at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, MN, USA, during the first recording sessions to take place there (during the same set of sessions as [[Melody Cool]], [[No Changes]] and a re-recording of [[If I Love U 2 Nite|If I Love You Tonight]], now titled [[If I Love U 2 Nite]]). '''Graffiti Bridge''' marks the earliest recording from [[Paisley Park Studios]] to be released with [[Prince]] vocals, therefore.

In February 1990 [[Clare Fischer]] recorded string overdubs at Mad Hatter Studios, Los Angeles, CA, USA, but this string arrangement was not used on the song. The short [[Clare Fischer|Fischer]] orchestration that begins the track is in fact not from the arrangement made for the track, but from the arrangement [[Clare Fischer|Fischer]] did for an unidentified other song. |
