Furthermore a back masked version of the guitar solo was used as a basis to [[Act Of Contrition]], the eleventh and final track on the [[Album: Like A Prayer|Like A Prayer]], album, and also released as the b-side of the [[Single: Like A Prayer|Like A Prayer]], single, three weeks before the album’s release. On [[Act Of Contrition]] the credit ‘The Powers That Be’, could be read as to allude to [[Prince]]. | Furthermore a back masked version of the guitar solo was used as a basis to [[Act Of Contrition]], the eleventh and final track on the [[Album: Like A Prayer|Like A Prayer]], album, and also released as the b-side of the [[Single: Like A Prayer|Like A Prayer]], single, three weeks before the album’s release.

In October 2023 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madonna_(entertainer) Madonna] embarked on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Celebration_Tour The Celebration Tour]. It was her first tour without a live band. Instead her masters were used to create the music for the show. During the closing part of the show segment called 'Uptown' '''Like A Prayer''' was performed. During the performance a dancer playing a cloud guitar and wearing a chain hat 'performs' the guitar solo, more or less confirming that the solo was in fact played by [[Prince]]. A snippet of [[Let's Go Crazy]] was also used as part of the performance. | |||
[[Prince]]’s contribution was recorded in mid-November 1988, at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota. It is likely that his solo was recorded by itself (or possibly for use on [[Like A Prayer]]), and the track was compiled later. | [[Prince]]’s contribution was recorded in mid-November 1988, at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota.
