Comments Deane's Comments(rates this release
4/5.0) This disc is a great improvement in both
sound quality and tracking to the previously released versions. The original CD
tracked in clumps and had some filler tracks of later material. This release has
each song tracked sperately and on most has brillant sound. The only exceptions
are Cold Coffee And Cocaine & Mama, both from the LP and neither has ever
been on CD, to my knowledge, before this. This is worth a listen. These
recordings are Prince noodling around on paino occasionally falling into a song
and often making it all up on the fly. I think the song How Come U Don't Call Me
Anymore may have also come from this session or one like it. Excellent sound
quality and beautiful packaging makes this another excellent Fan release.

3.75/5.0) A nice reworking of Intimate Moments With
Prince LP the sound is much better overall, and it is nice to have the songs
tracked properly. Also, a plus in my book is the fact that there aren't any
filler tracks on this release. :)
