Yes I would.

I would also KILL for Undertaker, Sac of Vic, Love4OneAnother, 3 Chains, D&P, Live!, hell, even the Ryde Divyne.

But, given the atrocious quality of a couple of these releases a couple years back through NPGMC, I don't think Prince has anything more than VHS copies of any of these sad

Dude. Killing is wrong.

And I am perfectly happy with my scratchy, foggy, worn-out, transferred VHS copy that has all the garish colours bleeding into each other like in some deadhead's fantasy. And you know just how garish those colours in that film are! Not to mention my remote control is broke and I can't even tone 'em down on my TV. Now, that's what I call a "beautiful experience"

I've just won a laserdisc on Ebay of "Prince & The Revolution: Live!"

It was only £18.92 including postage!!!

No, I don't have a laserdisc player, but I've found a company in the UK which transfers old laserdiscs to DVD!

Perfect digital video and CD-quality sound! I caaaaan't wait! I haven't seen this concert for YEARS!!!

I was bidding on this US laserdisc: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eB...RK:MEDW:IT which went for $31.00 but I managed to find the Japanese release: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eB...RK:MEWN:IT and I got it for $26.00!

Yay, for me! smile

I know the cover looks a bit shitty, but I believe it's taped up in a plastic bag.



One of my friends works in a photographic shop and they have industrial-sized scanners there, so I'll get him to scan the cover artwork, so I can make a DVD cover.

There are loads more out there at the moment and they're all really cheap.

Take a look at this link: http://search.ebay.com/pr...QQfromZR40

'3 Chains Of Gold', 'The Sacrifice Of Vistor', 'Gett Off', 'Diamonds And Pearls', 'Sign O The Times', the unedited 'Under The Cherry Moon' - they're all up for grabs!

Some of the later laserdiscs actually have 5:1 sound.

Not condoning pirating, but somebody somewhere could make money snapping some of these up and copying to DVD.

All of these have already been transferred from LD to DVD and are circulating amongst traders, not to mention The Undertaker and Live in Syracuse, as well as a new transfer of Lovesexy 88.

I have the LS88 one and was really pleasantly surprised by the whole package.

I made my own covers and it looks chipper. I wasn't too bothered about them before, but I will definately acquure all the official videos releases on fan-DVD, especially if they've been transferred from LD, I didn't know that.

(P.S. - No-one org-note me about these, I haven't got a clue in my tiny mind where one would acquire such things, mine fall from the sky, and I'm lucky enough to catch).
