Prince Releases More New Songs, Classic Recordings and Live Performance Clips Exclusively at the NPG Music Club

Prince's NPG Music Club has released an exclusive 12-minute clip culled from Prince's March 25th NAACP Image Awards performance. Titled the "Vanguard Jam," the electrifying video features Prince, Sheila E., Morris Day & Jerome Benton of The Time performing the songs "D.M.S.R.," "Housequake," and the debut of a new Prince song "Satisfied." In addition, the site has also made available the new single recorded at Prince's Paisley Park recording studio, "GlassCutter," as well as the Kamasutra CD that features a beautiful 11 movement instrumental love poem recorded with the NPG Orchestra. Fans worldwide can now purchase these future Prince classics exclusively through Prince's own download music service at www.NPGMusicClub.com.

Digging deep into his vast archive of music, the NPG Music Club recently released a live version of Prince's hit "Strange Relationship," recorded in 1987 with his Sign O' The Times band at the legendary First Avenue nightclub, made famous by the feature film Purple Rain. The NPG Music Club has also made available a live, three-track EP recorded in 1995 at Paisley Park, proving once again Prince is the ultimate performer in any decade.

Four classic NPG Records albums from the NPG catalogue have also been added to the download service, bringing the number of downloadable Prince tracks to well over 200 songs. All are exclusively available direct from the source in the NPG Music Club.

The NPG Music Club was created in 2001 and is currently the top artist-owned and completely independent download service, winning "Best Use of Technology by an Artist" from the Billboard Digital Entertainment Awards. The website's download store, offering music and videos, is available to members and non-members alike. Members receive a discount on all downloads, plus exclusive opportunities, merchandise and access to an active and vibrant online global Prince fan community.
