The music was largely re-recorded with his new band, however (and the lyrics are entirely different). Basic tracking of '''[[file:Eye88black.png|15px]] No''' took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/December 11|11 December 1987]] at [[Paisley Park Studios]], Chanhassen, MN (on the same day as [[Positivity]]). The 'party' segue from [[The Ball]] to [[Joy In Repetition]] as included on the aborted 1986 [[Album: Crystal Ball 1986|Crystal Ball]] album was kept between '''[[file:Eye88black.png|15px]] No''' and [[Alphabet St.]] (and again in 1990 between [[We Can Funk]] and [[Joy In Repetition]]). The track marks the first released appearance of [[Ingrid Chavez]] on a [[Prince]] recording. |
