Initial tracking took place in the last week of December, 1989, at [[Paisley Park Studios]] (during the same session as [[Diamonds And Pearls]]). The track's robotic countdown introduction was first used in the unreleased 1988 track [[We Got The Power]]. The track was included as the tenth track on the December, 1990, configuration of [[Album: Diamonds And Pearls|Diamonds And Pearls]], but was moved to become the 13th and final track on the [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/March_1|1 March, 1991]] and [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/May 8|8 May, 1991]] configurations, where it remained for release. The track features [[Michael B.]] (drums), who had just joined [[Prince]]'s band rehearsing for the [[Nude Tour]], as well as [[Sonny T.]] (bass guitar), whom [[Prince]] had recruited to play for [[Flash]], a backing band for [[Margie Cox]]. This is believed to be the earliest [[Prince]]-related recording to feature [[Tony M.]], who contributes a rap.

Live 4 Love is the 13th and final track on Prince's 13th album Diamonds And Pearls, the first album to be credited to Prince and the New Power Generation. In 1993, the track was included as the b-side of The Morning Papers, the fifth and final single from Prince's 14th album . In 2001, a 1992 live version was released as a video and audio download as part of NPG Music Club Edition # 10.

Initial tracking took place in the last week of December 1989, at Paisley Park Studios (during the same session as Diamonds And Pearls). The track's robotic countdown introduction was first used in the unreleased 1988 track We Got The Power. The track was included as the tenth track on the December 1990, configuration of Diamonds And Pearls, but was moved to become the 13th and final track on the 1 March 1991 and 8 May 1991 configurations, where it remained for release. The track features Michael B. (drums), who had just joined Prince's band rehearsing for the Nude Tour, as well as Sonny T. (bass guitar), whom Prince had recruited to play for Flash, a backing band for Margie Cox. This is believed to be the earliest Prince-related recording to feature Tony M., who contributes a rap.
