I haven't played anything since Sat morning when I watched the 2 Sky songs. I'm a bit too miserable, to be honest. At several points over the weekend I've wanted to watch him but each time, I would just remember I won't see him live for god knows how long. Each time in the last 6 weeks I've watched him I've immediately been to a gig. It's going to take a little while to accept that watching him doesn't automatically come with a gig the day after! Strange feelings. I'm not sure I'm ready to watch him yet without feeling sad it's all over.

Joy in Repetition/Anotherlover/Rock Lobster/Peach from the 3121.com video clip

Me three- trying to wean myself off Prince by sidestepping into Sly, like a funky methadone.

Aladdin Gig- Whole Lotta Love & Strange Relationship are current faves

Have 2 agree that song is up there with anything the man has ever done. 2 watch him sing that last night was unreal. Chelsea Rogers kicks it 2 as does Guitar 2 give away a cd of that quality just shows u how Prince loves his friends (not fans, friends).

the one that goes on for twenty minutes is peach and i agree with u that tune is just amazing even my kids cant stop dancing to it even though ive played so many times now it takes me right back to the aftershow WOW

I have 2. Satisfied has been on my stereo everyday since the 3 concerts i went to, i saw him sing it 3 times and each one was different, gets me ooopin hard. The other was sometimes it snows in april during a piano set that left me with a tear

Controversy which was scorching every time I saw it. Sometimes It Snows In April which I wasn't expecting at all, and Everyday People which I've always loved, and it was incredible to see Prince play it for about 20 minutes at the aftershow, I'll never forget it.

Yep, that is stuck in my head totally after the version he played at the 21st aftershow. Prince's guitar playing on that song is just sensational and beautiful and doubt Amy has ever heard her song played quite so well!! So, I've been listening to Amy's very tender original rendition on youtube just her and the mic. Alos gorgeous, but my mind is adding Prince's guitars!!

Calhoun Square
Wanna be your lover
Controversy
Raspberry Beret

Im desperate to get a decent Sly and Family Stone cd to remind me of the aftershows..can anyone recommend the best one?

It's all one clip (the "Joy" clip) - Joy in Repetition/Anotherlover/Rock Lobster/Peach - played in that order, about 12mins long.

Peach is fantastic

Depends, I have 3 favorite Sly and the Family Stone albums - Stand, There's a Riot Goin' On and Fresh, but I would probably recommend a compilation if you wanted a nice concise collection of some of their best material.

controversy and chelsea rogers amazing

Most of The Gold Experience album - especially Billy Jack Bitch, Dolphin, Shhh and Now.

I love this album - it's the main reason I discovered Prince's music (the main being seeing Get Wild by the NPG when I was a kid)

But to pick one - it has to be Billy Jack Bitch. So funky

For me its GUITAR, THE BEAUTFUL ONES and FREE.

btw - does anyone know where i can pick up a copy of the new album

o2review said:

I have about ten of them. I'd be happy to send you a copy.

what night was this?
can I hear it anywhere?
thanks x

Most definetly Bootsy Collins' Stretchin' Out (in a Rubber band) that they played before all the aftershows I went to, reminds me of the anticipation and the great party atmosphere building up before the shows...

Also Planet Earth the album, growing on me more each day...

for me it has to be Controversy - "c'mon clap your hands.. everybody stomp your feet"

Since

I had planet earth then 3121, with Get on the Boat on repeat on the car stereo, as i drove past the dome on my home, (reliving the aftershow ending sobbing away,) on saturday 22nd nite when i finally arrived home from the aftershow (as explained on my previous thread),


i have NOT listened to a single track. Bcoz.....

I've gone cold turkey and every so often I stare into the void looking at the "video" rerun in my colourful mind of the last aftershow and that of the 9th september, interlaced with excerpts of the 9 shows i experienced.
My family is very concerned ...but they just don't understand.

i can't listen 2 anything now as i have so much going on in my head, coupled with the agonising pain !
when that stops then i'll locate the stereo.

n 2 any1 who feels the same.

oooo yeeeeesssss DITTO.

"The One u wanna C" has been my Prince Summer 2007 tune, blasting it out in my car on the way to the gigs. Been also listening a lot to the "One Night Alone - The aftershow" to remind me of those fantastic nights at Indigo2. I just love "Peach - extended jam" and "Girls and boys" from this CD. (Are there any CDs out there similar to this?)

Phew, what a summer.

After the 21/9 (or 9/21 for our American friends!) aftershow...

For me it's... What Have You Done For Me Lately ...!
It rocked on the 21st!!

ADORE!
