[[Prince]]’s backing consisted of sound effects, identical to the synths in the beginning of [[File:Eye88.png|link=Eye No]][[Eye No| No]] (recorded a few days before, on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/December 11|11 December 1987]]), and a synth bass tone. [[Levi Seacer, Jr.]] recorded a new musical backing for the track in early April 1991, at [http://www.larrabeestudios.com/ Larrabee Sound Studios] in North Hollywood, California (along with ''Spiritual Storm''). While the 1991 version of '''Sad Puppet Dance''' was released as the tenth track on [[Ingrid Chavez]]’s [[Album:_May_19_1992|eponymous album (also known as ''May 19, 1992'')]], the released version contains no input by [[Prince]], and this listing includes details only of the version with input by [[Prince]], which remains unreleased. |
