"Midnight at the Oasis" one of Prince's favorites as a teen

One of the many Prince books I have read said Prince could be heard in the halls of his high school playing "Midnight at the Oasis" on guitar in the music room. Wouldnt it be great if he played this live now? We hear him do "Sweet Thing" a lot but has he ever played Midnight live?

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

You must seek out the full movie. It's hilarious start to finish.
