Take Me with U Live during Purple Rain Tour Question

I remember Donnie Simpson had a show back in the day called "Video Soul". One evening back in 1985 the show was dedicated to Prince.

A version of "Take Me with U' was played live from the "Purple Rain Tour' in which Prince does a guitar solo incorporating the "Controversy" guitar riff along with what sounded like "Batman" in his solo.

Can anyone tell me what show that was from?

I expect it's likely to be from one of the The Summit, Houston, Texas shows:

It's the 10th, 11th or 13th of January 1985.

The video is included on the 'Purple Rain' Special Edition DVD

This is the actual official video release for the song.
