Lisa's keyboard solos on the Triple Threat tour

Wish I had a video or audio (or both) compilation of all of her keyboard solos on this tour, whenever I listen to boots of this period, it's always one of my favorite parts. Can anybody make that happen perchance?

You can discuss it all day long, even posts pics of her playing the solos, but no one can post sing clips

I wish Lisa Coleman would post more of her current piano solos on http://thelisacoleman.com/ But just like wendyandlisa.com, website activity is sluggish, if not dead. confused

her solos during the 1999 tour was called Visions?

She did solos during the Purple Rain era and Parade era

Are you familiar with the 1st Avenue Benefit show I'm talking about

Also during the PRtour preview of America there were clearly 2 keyboard/synth solos by different people.

Matt & Lisa give solos along with BobbyZ & Wendy

He calls out Piano solo @ 5:35

Telephone @ 5:52

give me some horns

Wendy & Bobby Wendy & Bobby @ 6:47

on a America(PR tour preview)

@ 3:05 either a guitar solo or keyboard solo

@ 4:00 he calls out a flute solo(that sounds similar to the Telephone)

@ 5:25 Eric Leeds sax solo

@ 6:24 electric guitar solo

@ 7:46 Sheila E on percussion

@ 8:46 drum solo -Bobby Z

@ 9:38 Eddie M sax solo

@ 10:48 drum solo-Prince I believe

@ 12:05 bass solo

I have to listen to a few of my Dirty Mind era -Purple Rain to pull some up

Listening to the 1984 Birthday show, when he calls out Lisa, it clear to hear what she's playing and how what she is doing add that layered sound. It was something I noticed missing when Boni was put in the band for SOTT

No no, You have me on a listening journey here lol

When I get home I want pull out some of my Dirty Mind-1999 shows

I do a agree that many of the songs that were plaid had a solo that was set and done by Dr Fink on the album therefore also live. As far as particular songs are concerned but it does seem like from a the DMSR & America that she did solo on those songs.

Slightly off-topic: I understand Lisa and Wendy have been working on material with Chaka Khan. Can't wait to hear what that will sound like!
