The musicians who helped Prince record 'Welcome 2 America' a decade ago share the inside story of how that lost album finally made its way out into the world
: We never knew which songs we’d be working on each day. He was just coming in and bringing these lyric sheets, like a machine. It just poured out of him, and you could feel that it was just like a freight train.One day he called me and said, “Can you roll by Paisley real quick? I want to play you something.” So I hop in my car and go over.
[which Prince retitled “Stand Up and B Strong”]. Don’t think he was done with that one; it doesn’t sound finished to me. He definitely would have come back and added something to it because to me it’s a little empty, production-wise.I didn’t do anything on that song, but it’s interesting because Prince was very staunchly against anybody doing] It was crazy, man. People like Snoop Dogg would call about wanting to use a Time track. And I’d say, “Snoop, man, he’s not going to go for it.
We never knew when we were going and how long we would be there. You were never supposed to ask, “How much am I getting paid or how long am I going to be gone?” It was like a no-no. Don’t ask because there’s another musician or singer who would love that gig. It was hard because I had to figure out who would take care of my child and how long they were going to be doing it.
