With You is the fifth track on Prince’s second album Prince. In 1987, a re-recorded version (essentially a cover version, but mixed by Prince) was included as the fourth track on Jill Jones' first and only album Jill Jones.
An early version of the song was recorded in February 1978 at Music Farm Studios in New York, NY, USA, around the same time as of sessions led by Pepé Willie intended for Tony Silvester, leader of the group The Main Ingredient to use as demos for Little Anthony and the Imperials, who he wanted to produce (the one-day session also produced I Feel For You, Thrill You Or Kill You, and André Cymone’s original version of Do Me, Baby), although With You was recorded with extra studio time and was not intended for use by Tony Silvester.
While specific recording dates for the album version are not known, the album sessions took place from late April to late May 1979 at Alpha Studios in Burbank, California. Overdubs and mixing took place at Hollywood Sound Recorders in Los Angeles, California.
In November 1985, Jill Jones re-recorded the track, at [Prince]]’s request, for inclusion on her 1987 eponymous album Jill Jones. This is essentially a cover version of the track, without musical input by Prince, except for some mixing.
Prince did commission an orchestral arrangement for it from [Clare Fisher]], recorded in December, but the orchestral arrangement is not used in the released version on Jill Jones.
