In 1993, the same studio recording, without the opening word "Yes", was included as the 13th track (ninth song) on the [[Band: New Power Generation|New Power Generation]]’s first 'solo' album [[Album: Gold Nigga|Gold Nigga]], credited only to the [[Band: New Power Generation|New Power Generation]] (it became the twelfth track (eighth song) on the album’s second printing after [[Guess Who’s Knockin’]] was removed). | In 1993, the same studio recording, without the opening word "Yes", was included as the 13th track (ninth song) on the [[Band: New Power Generation|New Power Generation]]’s first 'solo' album [[Album: Gold Nigga|Gold Nigga]], credited only to the [[Band: New Power Generation|New Power Generation]] (it became the twelfth track (eighth song) on the album’s second printing after [[Guess Who’s Knockin’]] was removed). | ||
Tracking of an initial version took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/September 7|7 September 1990]] at [[Smile Garage Studio]] in Tokyo, Japan (on the same day as initial versions of [[Something Funky (This House Comes)]] and [[Horny Pony]]). | |||
[[Prince]] updated the recording on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/November 14|14 November 1990]] at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota, while compiling the first configuration of the [[Album: Diamonds And Pearls|Diamonds And Pearls]] album. It was included as the twelfth track on the December 1990 configuration on said album, but was dropped from later configurations. [[Prince]] clearly liked the song, however, performing it regularly between 1991-1993. '''Call The Law''' found its way to both the b-side to [[Single: Money Don’t Matter 2 Night|Money Don’t Matter 2 Night]] and in 1993 on the [[Band:_New_Power_Generation|NPG]] album [[Album: Gold Nigga|Gold Nigga]]. | |||
