VIDEO: The NPG has posted THE AMAZING PRINCE CONCERT held at the Rock in Rio Music Festival

This version of the New Power Generation has posted links to the Prince & the NPG's "Rock in Rio Music Festival" concert on Twitter:

"The NPG had many versions but we are Morris (Mr.) Hayes, Tony (M) Mosley, Levi Seacer Jr., Sonny (T) Thompson, Tommy Barbarella, Kirk Johnson, and Damon Dickson"

Here is what they posted on Twitter with two videos of the amazing concert:

"Prince & the NPG opened and closed the 10-night 'Rock In Rio Music Festival' in 1991 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil"

Check out part 1 here:

They have also stated the following in a separate posting:

"Get ready! 2017 is going to be a super dope new year!"

Great news! This is the gig where the 2-cd set was released a few months back. But to see it is different and better than just to hear it.

Thank U so much 4 posting. When is the dvd coming? razz

It's great - I always love footage from this era as the dancing fascinates me - BUT WHY DOES THE CAMERA KEEP PANNING TO OVER MICHAEL BLAND'S HEAD INSTEAD OF SHOWING US P AND THE GUYS DOING THEIR ROUTINES??? mad

That may be because Rosie Gaines has been ill.

Let's all hope her health improves because she is a beautiful person with amazing vocals.

This must have been around the time Tony M ditched Prince to go hang gliding?

Ill or not, Rosie was an original member of the NPG.

I really liked the version of 'Nothing Compares 2 U' on this - just P singing alone. Nice.
