The song evolved from a jam session, in which [[Michael B.]] began playing a drum pattern from an not well-known song by British band [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockpile Rockpile]. [[Levi Seacer, Jr.]] added a bass line, and [[Prince]] began to add guitar chords. Additional recording took place after the [[Nude Tour]] in September and later in December 1990 at [[Paisley Park Studios]] in Chanhassen, Minnesota. |

The drum intro for the track was also used as the musical background for the track [[Joyful Sound]], and when that track was added to a Spring 1991 configuration of the album, the intro was removed from [[Willing And Able]], which was now included as the seventh track. The edited version was also included as the sixth track on the [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/May 8|8 May 1991]], configuration, where it remained for release. | ||
