Prince Continuity Question

Can somebody please explain what these projects were and how they fit into Prince's continuity? I was too confused by everything during the 90's to figure out what was going on.

Sacrifice Of Victor

Undertaker

Victor was a video of a concert called "The Dawn". Basically, When Prince changed his name to Symbol he killed Prince with a final show at Wembley, London. At the start of the video, you see him "die" at the standard show. 5 hours later he held an afterhow called "The dawn" when he was reborn as symbol. It was a great show, and you can see me laughing in the performance of Peach!

Undertaker was a live studio DAT jam, when Prince/symbol began to rebel against Warner. He was going to give it away with a guitar mag, but Warner stopped it. For 12 months the video was only available to view through the Prince stores around the world, but eventually Warner released it the same days as the Victor video.

I can understand the frustration!

Ulysses was a dance project in 93, based around the music Prince was making in the Come/Gold Era. At the time, with Mayte into dance, Prince like the idea of "shows". It had already raised its head with the symbol album ( his "Rock Opera").

With the opening of the Glam Slam clubs, he now had a dance troupe with Mayte very much the influence. the result was "Ulysses". Basically it was a waste of money, but the music suerfaced over the years.

S3V3N, I feel for you, it moves so fast. But look at it this way. Its like someone saying to you, what was NPGMC and whats the difference between that and ONA?
