The song was written by [[Prince]] and [[Eric Leeds]], but credited to [[Jellybean Johnson]] and [[Jerome Benton]]. |
| − | + | Basic tracking, as '''Lisa''' (entirely unrelated to the 1980 unreleased track [[Lisa]] but also most likely named after [[Lisa Coleman]]), took place on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/August_5|5 August 1984]] at the [[Flying Cloud Drive Warehouse]] in Eden Prairie, Minnesota. On the same day as [[River Run Dry]]. [[Eric Leeds]] and [[Wendy Melvoin]] added saxophone and guitar, respectively on [[Prince_Vault:Selected_anniversaries/October_9|9 October 1984]], at the [[Flying Cloud Drive Warehouse]] in Eden Prairie, Minnesota (on the same day [[Prince]] was recording [[Condition Of The Heart]] at Sunset Sound in Hollywood, California). It is likely the track’s name was changed when considered for the album, but this is unverified. Despite their identical title, [[The Family]]’s '''Yes''' has nothing to do with the [[Yes-2010|song recorded in 2010]]. | |
