12 must-hear tunes unearthed from Prince's vault for '1999' reissue

On Friday, Warner Bros. will release a deluxe version of "1999" featuring a remastering of the original 1982 double album, alternate versions of songs, B sides, a live record and a DVD from that year's tour and, most significantly, 35 unreleased recordings from Prince's legendary Paisley Park vault.

Here are 12 must-hear '1999' tunes.

"Purple Music": Predating "Purple Rain," Prince sings joyously for nearly 11 percolating minutes about his passion for music: "Don't need no reefer, don't need cocaine. Purple music does the same 2 my brain."

"Moonbeam Levels": In a rare personal moment, Prince gets confessional on this slice of psychedelic pop, suggesting maybe he wants affection instead of "a plastic life."

"Vagina": Set to a metallic guitar riff recalling Bowie's "Rebel Rebel," this gender-fluid jam celebrates a "half boy, half girl — best of both worlds."

"No Call U": A slice of sassy synth funk with singer Jill Jones. Prince insists she call him because he won't phone her. ("I'm stubborn. That's my middle name.")

"Turn It Up": Using the radio as a metaphor for sex, this speedy synth number sounds suited for Morris Day in his prime Time days.

"Yah, You Know": This whiny synth-pop piece has a Cars-like sound and attitude, coupled with an unmistakable riff from the Standells' 1966 hit "Dirty Water."

"Can't Stop This Feeling I Got": With its rhythmic urgency, this recalls the politicized plea "Ronnie Talk to Russia" from 1981's "Controversy," but the insistent lyrics are not fully developed.

"If It'll Make U Happy": With his most soulful pop voice, Prince offers to make it up to a girl he's left on this minimalist pop tune with a reggae undercurrent.

"Do Yourself a Favor": A sprightly, synth-heavy remake of a mid-'70s R&B tune by Pepe Willie, one of Prince's early mentors, that they recorded together in a group called 94 East (originally titled "If You See Me"). Time guitarist Jesse Johnson also cut this song on his 1986 "Shockadelica" album.

"You're All I Want": Sung in a girlish falsetto, this swinging rockabilly romp was recorded on Los Angeles engineer Peggy McCreary's birthday and given to her as the session ended at Sunset Sound.
