|introduction              = '''The Last Dance (Bang Pow Zoom And The Whole Nine)''' is a song recorded on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/February 12|12 February 1991]], two weeks after [[Jughead]], at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota. The track is basically a different take on [[Jughead]], but more than just a remix, with newly done lyrics and partly new music. In early 1991 the track was played over the PA system at the [[Club: Glam Slam|Glam Slam]] nightclub in Minneapolis, Minnesota. 

In the same session a different version of [[Jughead]], dubbed ‘’Extended House Party Mix’’ was also worked on. 

'''The Last Dance (Bang Pow Zoom And The Whole Nine)''' was released in October 2023 as the tenth track of ''Vault Tracks part 2'', one of the discs with previously unreleased tracks included with the [[Album: Diamonds And Pearls SuperDeluxe| Diamonds And Pearls ''Super Deluxe Edition'']].
