Joe Cocker does great justice to "Five Women." The track dates back to the Diamonds and Pearls sessions when Prince was writing a number of blues oriented R&B tracks. This particular number fits that sound, with a little added pop twist.
The track made it's way around before landing on Night Calls. The Kinsey Report recorded the song, but it did not turn up on their album. In addition to "Five Women," Joe Cocker was offered "Old Friends 4 Sale." However, he declined to record the track.
