− | + | Basic tracking took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/July 11|11 July 1987]] at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota, two days after [[Melody Cool]] and [[No Changes]], and around the same time as 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''' therefore marks the earliest recording from [[Paisley Park Studios]] to be released with [[Prince]] vocals. An early version of the song was included as the third track on a [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/September 25|25 September 1988]] configuration of [[Album: Graffiti Bridge|Graffiti Bridge]]. It was included as the 13th track on a late 1989 configuration. Vocal and instrumental overdubs took place in late 1989 or early 1990 at [[Paisley Park Studios]]. | |

The short [[Clare Fischer|Fischer]] orchestration that begins the track is in fact not from the arrangement made for it, but from an arrangement [[Clare Fischer|Fischer]] did for the unreleased ([[Jill Jones]] song) [[Killin' At The Soda Shop]]. |
