Globe and Mail blurb on Toronto concert

From The Globe And Mail (Saturday, June 15, 2002 - Page R20):
PRINCE June 15, 7 p.m., $99 to $150, Massey Hall, 178 Victoria Ave., 416-872-4255

With his last few albums serving less as tour de forces of the familiar funk-rock-soul randiness and songcraft than as jazz-flecked, peripatetic journeys through his reclusive religiosity, even the most faithful of the rainbow children might wonder: Is it worth dropping half a week's salary to bask in the presence of His Purpleness, on a tour thin on his hits? Yes. Few pop musicians seem so touched by native genius, and Prince is the closest thing to a Ray Charles his generation's got. He'll be worth witnessing in concert when he's 80.

That review should be spread to everyone you possibly can! Prince deserves it entirely.
