Ok,I´ve waited ´till theere would be a discount on the DVD,because I knew
this wasn´t a popular Prince DVD and I was right!!Got a great deal...
I also wasn´t sure if it would be worth it´s full prize and..well,I don´t
wanna compare this gig with the more expensive´shows´SOTT,Lovesexy or D&P
and it´s just great 2 see Prince really enjoying himself every minute
of the concert but...(here it comes)if NEVER heard such terrible versions of
Strange Relationship,Take me with U or even 1+1+1=3!!!!The´One Night Alone´-CD
is one of my fav so I sure know the band can do better.Even if U listen 2
the NUDE-tour,wich was also stripped down of all effects-this one doesn´t come
close!!I enjoy watching the DVD and it deserves a place in my collection but
it has 2much long jams on it,instead of SONGS.
Looking out 4 PR,SOTT and Under Cherry Moon next month...I keep hoping
4 Lovesexy release!!!

i think the sound quality sucks and they just didn't seem like they were into it. This DVD bores me to tears as does the Rave DVD. The Japan ONA boot DVD is WAAAY better!!

... you really shouldn't tell us where to get the Japan ONA DVD should you, please ?

Dudes, I thought it was an awsome music arrangement, yes indeed, it looked like they were having fun, & Strange relationship was played wonderfully, great to see a different spin on a slow song 1+1+1=3, always lookin 4 a different version, c'mon, I've never heard "Whole Lotta Love" done in a high octave C, & it sounded purty damned good 2 me!, I believe in the DVD, yes some songs dragged out to long,( like the one with Nikka Costa) but c'mon, the DVD was worth the darned 12.95 I paid 4 it. I thought the DVD was better then the Rave DVD I got, but still glad 2 have that 1 2.

Gotta broken heart is the highlight.
1+1 is cool but the other tracks are a bit lacking.
The DVD quality shits me 2 tears.

Bring on the DVD from the Live Simulcast NOW !
No edits, no slow moes, just the whole concert in superb sound and video
like the NPGMC download of the One etc

Screw y'all naysayers. I like it. And I like Rave, too. Sure, there are better vids and DVDs, but it's a worthy addition to any collection.

i don't have low standards, so screw you in azz right back again! i simply think it's a "good" DVD....like i said there are better performances available, but i am happy i own it!

If i could only buy 1 of the 2, there is no way in hell i would buy Live at the Alladin, I'd go with Rave.

I thought at times i was watching a bad rip or an old vhs tape- bad quality, but perhaps it was "meant" 2 b that way?

I actually think the versions of "1+1+1 is 3" and "Strange Relationship" are better on the DVD than the CD box set. Horses for couses I guess!

mrdespues said:

You are right! But ... Prince need to stop his overdubs to live material and record directly to tape/film and without any edits! That will be Princes best shot ...

"Live at the Alladin" pisses on "Rave".

mrdespues said:

You must not have many Prince DVDs if you think it's good. Right?

Rave does a perfectly fine job of pissing all over itself, thank you very much!
