Has anyone noticed that Sign "O" The Times is the least photographed Prince era.

Of all the Prince eras SOTT is my favorite, yet finding pictures from this era other than the one posted we have all seen are almost non-existant. I have only seen a few rare pics. Is there anyone out there that has pics from this era that we haven't seen yet and if so please post them.

Your close to my age.

I think those of us in our lower to mid 30's love that album becuase it came out duringa period of time in our lives when music was really important, his peers were belting out regular pop, and he was really starting to stretch his arms out.

I have a lot of really neat memories during that period of time. Prince really blew me away with this album.

I think some younger kids listening to his albums now may like SOTT, but wont actually get why WE dig it so much. Just an assumption though. shrug

I think you're talking about the Stadion Feijenoord pic from '88:

Prince & the Lovesexy touring band - Rotterdam, Holland (August 1988)


Prince played three dates there (open air shows) to about 100,000 peeps.

Agreed - he never had a better photographer than Jeff Katz:

In the Backstage Pass room over at our friends NPGMC they now have a wonderful tourbook archive.

So all those classic shots can now be viewed in all their glory.

thumbs up!

TOTALLY agree about Katz. I collect the Prince tourbooks, and the Katz photos are always the best.
