"Poorsias" seems to be right, according to the text he's found at Wikipedia. Although it was "unreleased", you can apparently buy 'The Undertaker' album as well as hear a couple of tracks here:

The first track sounds bluesy, but not so much the other ones. Also, from the listing, you can see that a couple of tracks there made it onto other albums.

This is the only thing I could find. it was on wikipedia.
The Undertaker
This recording was made in a continuous single live-in-the-studio pass in collaboration with NPG drummer Michael Bland and bassist Sonny T. Prince originally intended to give this live CD away free with 1,000 copies of Guitar Player Magazine in 1994, but he was reportedly barred by Warner Bros. from doing so. Copies were leaked and bootlegged. The songs were guitar-heavy versions of rock and blues numbers, including a cover of The Rolling Stones' "Honky Tonk Women" and new recording of "Bambi" (originally from 1979's Prince). The title track was a cover of a song previously given to Mavis Staples, while "The Ride," "Zannalee," and "Dolphin" would all be re-recorded future releases. A video recording of the performance is in circulation with small edits throughout the performance and "Dolphin" replaced by the official video of the song from The Gold Experience.
