In it [[Prince]] jokingly refers to 'Jimmy White and The Blacks' seemingly referring to an alter ego name for the band [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Chance_and_the_Contortions James Chance and the Contortions]. | In it [[Prince]] jokingly refers to 'Jimmy White and The Blacks' seemingly referring to an alter ego name for the band [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Chance_and_the_Contortions James Chance and the Contortions]. | ||
The song is fairly similar to the [[U Gotta Shake Something]] jam recorded on the same day. Unlike some other songs of [[The Flesh]] session, it was not included on the [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/January 22|22 January 1986]] configuration of [[Album: The Flesh (1986)|The Flesh]] EP, which was ultimately abandoned. The track has the sound of an audience dubbed onto it throughout the track, to make it sound as if it were a live recording. | The song is fairly similar to the [[U Gotta Shake Something]] jam recorded on the same day.
