While posthumous releases can often be iffy territory, the fact that this track is a complete gem somewhat compensates for it.
Moonbeam Levels was written and recorded during the 1999 sessions, cut in the studio in 1982. It comes as the first taste of a new greatest hits release, Prince4Ever, that spans the Purple One’s long reaching career, as well as featuring some unreleased material.
Although the song has appeared on bootlegs in the past, it was premiered on an ABC News (American Broadcasting Company) overnight.
Listen to the track at around 40 seconds into the clip below.
