A Place In Heaven is an unreleased instrumental piece with the same title as a song recorded on 27 March 1986, but has seemingly little to nothing to do with it other than it also being in a 3/4 time signature. It is unclear when Prince recorded the song, but it is likely to predate the song with lyrics bearing the same title, possibly hailing from the second half of 1983 or early 1984. The almost 15 minute track has a meandering melody of mostly piano, embellished with synthesizer and a simple drum track, and is reminiscent in sound with both Father's Song and God (Love Theme From Purple Rain) and was possibly intended as proposed music for Purple Rain. Prince surprisingly performed a two and a half minute rendition of it at the first show of the Piano & A Microphone Tour in Melbourne Australia, seemingly in connection with the passing of Denise Matthews a.k.a. Vanity the day before.
