The Call was released as an audio track playing over the credits on the 3 Chains O’ Gold home video. No audio-only version of the track has been released. The track is an instrumental loop of It’s Not a Game by Pete Rock and CL Smooth, overlaid with two times segue #2, as heard between 3 Chains O’ Gold and The Sacrifice Of Victor on the SymbolSmallerBlue.png album between Prince and Vanessa Bartholomew (played by actress Kirstie Alley)
Recording of the segues took place in early 1992, most likely at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota, although Alley’s parts were recorded at Record Plant, Los Angeles, California.
