Description

Highly intriguing black TDK cassette tape containing various Prince rehearsal songs, presented by Prince to his assistant Stachia Fiedler, with the A side label annotated in ballpoint, "Side 3 of 3, Rehersal [sic] Songs." Upper right of the A side also features a small affixed label annotated in ballpoint, "Stachia." Includes the original cassette holder, with sleeve bearing identical annotations to the tape label. In fine condition, with some expected scuffing to case. This rehearsal tape would have been for the 'Hit N Run' tour, which turned into the Parade Tour, to support The Under The Cherry Moon movie and the Parade album. The 'Hit N Run' Tour (March-August 1986) was just a slapped together tour in the USA, then it turned into an actual planned tour in Europe, which ran from from August-September of 1986. From the collection of Prince's assistant Stachia Fiedler and accompanied by a letter of provenance. Fiedler notes that she received this to listen to and type up the lyrics for the band to learn; the lyrics were sold as part of lot 7463 in our March 2017 Marvels of Modern Music sale.
