- New Power Generation (August 31, 1993) Gold N Album
2gether was the first and only single from the New Power Generation’s debut ‘solo’ album, and the first credited solely to the band. It debuted at retail stalls during the Act II tour, starting with the 31 August 1993 show at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy in Paris, France. Later, it was sold at The New Power Generation Stores in Minneapolis and London, but never saw a wider retail release. Featuring multiple remixes with uncredited remixers, the single’s limited distribution meant it wasn’t eligible for the charts. Released: 31 August 1993 – first sold at concert retail stalls.

- The Time (August 25, 1982) – What Time Is It? Album Release USA
What Time Is It? is the second full‑length studio album by The Time, released in August 1982, thirteen months after their debut. As with their first album, the project was largely written, recorded, and produced by Prince, with no instrumental or songwriting input from band members other than Morris Day, although all members were credited. Four of the six songs were credited to The Time and two to Morris Day, but Prince wrote all six tracks, with lyrics on one written by Dez Dickerson. The album was recorded in two phases: Gigolos Get Lonely Too, The Walk, and Wild And Loose were completed in mid‑January 1982, while 777‑9311, Onedayi’mgonnabesomebody, and I Don’t Wanna Leave You were recorded in May or June 1982. Morris Day provided lead vocals (and drums on three tracks), while Prince performed background vocals and all instruments. Additional songs recorded for possible inclusion included Jerk Out, International Lover, Bold Generation, and Colleen. Three singles were released — 777‑9311, The Walk, and Gigolos Get Lonely Too — and The Time supported the album on Prince’s 1999 Tour. The album reached number 26 on the US Billboard Pop Chart and number 2 on the US Billboard Soul LP’s Chart. It was certified gold on 3 November 1982 for 500,000 copies shipped in the USA. In 2015, the album was digitally remastered and reissued in Japan as part of the Warner 80’s Soul Classics Best Collection 1000 Series.

- Prince (August 25, 2014) – “Clouds” Digital (Worldwide)
Clouds was released on 25 August 2014 as a promotional download to coincide with the announcement of Art Official Age and Plectrumelectrum. The track served as an early preview of Prince’s 37th studio album, arriving five weeks before the album’s official release. The digital single appeared alongside Breakdown, which had previously been issued as a standalone release. A European promo CD of Clouds was also circulated the week before the album, marking one of the earliest physical promotional items connected to the Art Official Age campaign. RECORDING While exact recording dates are not known, basic tracking is believed to have taken place during Spring or Summer 2014 at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota. British folk/soul singer Lianne La Havas contributed vocals to the track. In an interview from late February 2014, she stated she had not yet recorded with Prince, suggesting her parts were added later. A short excerpt of Clouds was played over the PA system prior to a live show at Paisley Park on 26 July 2014, alongside snippets from other Art Official Age tracks. Joshua Welton later remixed Clouds in 2014 or early 2015, developing the remix into a distinct track titled Mr. Nelson, which appeared on Hitnrun Phase One.

- Prince (August 25, 1989) – "Partyman" b/w "Feel U Up" Single: USA
7" - USA - 7-22814 Partyman (LP Version 3:11) Partyman was released in the USA on 25 August 1989 as the second single from Prince’s eleventh album Batman, the soundtrack to Tim Burton’s 1989 film., with the maxi-single released on September 15 1989. Arriving two months after the album, the single continued the highly successful commercial partnership between Prince and the Batman franchise. The B‑side, Feel U Up, was previously unreleased, despite having been recorded years earlier and originally intended for the abandoned Camille album in late 1986. Its inclusion added further interest to the single, offering listeners a glimpse into Prince’s extensive vault material. 7" - USA - 7-22814 Feel U Up (Short Stroke 3:42) The maxi‑single expanded the release with several Prince‑created remixes, including Partyman (The Purple Party Mix), which opened with a collage of samples from Prince’s hits spanning 1979 to 1988. The single’s artwork again used the Batman logo, following Batdance, though in a more minimal form. The same symbol, recoloured, appeared on the subsequent single The Arms Of Orion. The track itself was one of the few songs from the Batman album to be prominently featured in the film, accompanying the Joker’s chaotic museum sequence. Prince later explained that the song was inspired by his meeting with Jack Nicholson on set, whose attitude reminded him of Morris Day. 12" - USA - 0-21370 Partyman (The Purple Party Mix 6:02) - Partyman (Partyman Music Mix 4:31) Partyman (The Video Mix 6:20) - Feel U Up (Short Stroke 3:42) Musically, Partyman is upbeat and humorous, built around horn samples and Prince’s sped‑up “Camille” vocals. The 12" single extended the track to around six minutes (the “Video Mix”) and paired it with Feel U Up, which was originally recorded in 1981 and re‑worked in 1986. Additional mixes, including the Purple Party Mix and the Partyman Music Mix, further expanded the single’s sonic palette. The song performed strongly on the charts, reaching number 18 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 5 on the US Billboard Hot Black Singles Chart. In the UK, it peaked at number 14, continuing a brief pattern in which Prince’s singles found greater consistency in the UK than in the US. The music video, filmed in Culver City in August 1989 and directed by Albert Magnoli, featured Prince’s “Gemini” persona in a half‑Joker costume, with Candy Dulfer appearing on saxophone. Due to licensing restrictions, Partyman and other Batman‑era singles have rarely appeared on Prince compilations, though the track saw renewed streaming interest after its inclusion in the 2020 documentary series The Last Dance. Cassette single - USA - 4-22814 Partyman (LP Version 3:11) Feel U Up (Short Stroke 3:42) RELEASE HISTORY Released 25 August 1989 in the USA. Second single from Batman. Worldwide release followed. Maxi‑single issued 15 September 1989. Included multiple Prince‑created mixes. B‑side previously unreleased. Featured prominently in the Batman film. Reached #18 US Billboard Hot 100 and #5 US Billboard Hot Black Singles. Peaked at #14 in the UK. CHARTS USA — Billboard Hot 100 — Entry: 26 Aug 1989 — Peak: 18 — Weeks: 10 USA — Billboard Hot Black Singles — Entry: 2 Sep 1989 — Peak: 5 — Weeks: 13 USA — Billboard Hot Dance Music – Club Play — Entry: 28 Oct 1989 — Peak: 45 — Weeks: 2 PERSONNEL Prince — vocals, instruments Candy Dulfer — saxophone VIDEO The Partyman music video was filmed in Culver City, California in August 1989 and directed by Albert Magnoli. The clip showcases Prince’s “Gemini” persona, dressed in a split “half‑Joker” costume that visually ties the video to the Batman universe and reflects the playful tone of the song. Dutch musician Candy Dulfer appears on saxophone, adding a live performance element that complements the video’s colourful, chaotic energy. Due to licensing restrictions surrounding the Batman soundtrack, Partyman — along with the other singles from the era — has rarely appeared on Prince’s later compilation releases, with the exception of the UK singles promoting The Hits/The B‑Sides. The video and song experienced renewed attention when Partyman was featured in an episode of the 2020 documentary series The Last Dance, resulting in a noticeable increase in streaming activity.

The article, written by Jon Bream with photography by David Brewster and Anthony Souffle, appears in the Variety section and blends retrospective commentary with updates on the film’s cast and crew. Publication: Star Tribune (Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States) Date: July 26 2009 Country: United States Section / Pages: Variety / E8 Title: ‘Purple’ Afterglow The piece opens with a “Where Are They Now?” sidebar, detailing the post‑film careers of Albert Magnoli, Bob Cavallo, Steve Fargnoli, William Blinn, Apollonia, Morris Day, and Clarence Williams III, alongside Prince himself, who had just performed two nights at the Montreux Jazz Festival earlier that month. The main article reflects on how Purple Rain propelled Minnesota onto the global music map, recounting the film’s production challenges, its box‑office triumph, and its enduring cultural resonance. A secondary section, “Prince’s Shadow Still Looms Large Among Local Musicians,” examines the film’s influence on Minneapolis artists decades later, noting how MTV’s Twin Cities Week and anniversary events revived interest in Prince’s legacy. The accompanying photograph shows patrons at First Avenue during the “Let’s Go Crazy” dance party celebrating the milestone. CONTEXT AND NOTES The article situates Purple Rain as both a cinematic and musical landmark, crediting Prince’s vision for redefining Minneapolis as a creative hub. It highlights the film’s grassroots origins, its impact on local musicians, and its continued relevance through modern tributes and retrospectives.
