In high school I based multiple friendships on people's ability to complete lyric quotes from "Housequake". I am still friends with all of these people.

"Housequake" is such a glorious track but I must say I've always had a problem with the production/mastering.
It's too thin/flat (like most of SOTT and his 80s output).

AlXTC from Paris, Tuesday, 21 October 2014 15:42 (ten years ago) link

you're too thin/flat

Crackle Box, Thursday, 30 October 2014 04:15 (ten years ago) link

^^^^ yes, this is a tremendous show. BUT if anyone can find a copy online of the pre-SOTT tour "Valium" show at First Avenue...THAT is one of the rawest, funkiest Prince sets out there.

3rd Eye Girl are Prince's worst backing band and the songs are not that good either. But the Rolling Stone writer loved it.

curmudgeon, Sunday, 2 November 2014 17:02 (nine years ago) link

yeah considering what price is capable of all but the first segment of the medley was very disappointing

I dunno. (amateurist), Sunday, 2 November 2014 17:35 (nine years ago) link

however he was by far the best thing about that horrible episode, and i love chris rock

I dunno. (amateurist), Sunday, 2 November 2014 17:35 (nine years ago) link

mediocre Prince > mediocre snl

curmudgeon, Sunday, 2 November 2014 17:45 (nine years ago) link

i think that was flat-out bad snl

I dunno. (amateurist), Sunday, 2 November 2014 19:54 (nine years ago) link

Friends on FB who do not listen to r'n'b much (or Prince much), were impressed with his appearance...

curmudgeon, Monday, 3 November 2014 18:29 (nine years ago) link

most of it wasn't really r'n'b, though.... straight up rock.

"Housequake" is such a glorious track but I must say I've always had a problem with the production/mastering.
It's too thin/flat (like most of SOTT and his 80s output).

The extended unreleased version is the tits. I wrote this about it many a moon ago:

A fascinating, extended version of "Housequake" that remains unreleased, shows this Prince at the peak of his powers; at over seven minutes, the almost dubby mix features a chorus of Princes led by Camille calling, responding and jiving while the song passes through bass grooves ranging from a jazzy walk to popping funk, all punctuated by fuzzy metal power chords, wailing guitars and JB horns, supported by a typically crisp electronic beat and working itself into a feverish pitch. Brass aside, it's all Prince, and it's stone-cold brilliant.

I think most of his records could use a good remastering.

Some remarkable outtakes have begun to surface- lots of stuff longtime Prince nerds/fans like myself had never even heard of. This is an "Adore" like beauty (this YT account has all the goods): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zesW5oJR7QM

YSI? Where is this new material floating around on the web?

I guess fragments of this song have been around for years, but this full version is something new.
