| + | |introduction = '''Streetwalker''' is track recorded on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/July 6|6 July 1990]] at [[Metropolis Studios]] in London, England (on the same day as [[My Tender Heart]] and [[Pain]]), while on the [[Nude Tour]]. The song was originally intended for [[Rosie Gaines]]’ first solo album. [[Prince]] first recorded his own lead on it, before he had [[Rosie Gaines]] record hers. | ||
| + | The lyrics were written by [[Rosie Gaines]] in 1989, and the song may have been previously recorded first without [[Prince]]’s input (it was registered at the ASCAP and at the Library of Congress in 1989 as a solo composition by [[Rosie Gaines]]). The groove on the 1990 version is essentially the same as the jam part of [[Baby I’m A Star]] as played on the [[Nude Tour]]. | ||
