Prince - 'CITY LIGHTS' questions I have 3 questions about the Bootleg 'City Lights'...
1) Is it the live 1999 tour in great quality? 2) What is the track-list? 3) Is it any good? “Tuna, you better do something or else we gonna have to put you back in the can!” | |

Every CD in the set is top fucking notch. And they were all uncirculating shows before City Lights came out.
A must-own boot classic. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

I don't have much far as sets but City Lights is the favorite set of what I do have. "Why'd I waste my kisses on you baby?" R.I.P. Prince You've finally found your way back home. Well Done. | |

How many CDs make up the set? “Tuna, you better do something or else we gonna have to put you back in the can!” | |

11 cd's total. The 1985 Purple Rain show is on two discs and the 1986 Parade show is also on two discs. All the other shows are single discs, I think. | |

NO SOLICITING FOR BOOTLEGS. You want to discuss them, that's OK, but NO OFFER TO COPY, NO REQUESTS TO COPY, NO "WHERE CAN I GET", etc. NO POSTING OF LINKS TO THESE SITES EITHER. ***Violating posts will be removed and your account possibly deleted.*** Repo Man's got all night, every night. | |

I believe I heard that Bobby Z was the one who let them leak out. Try asking him  | |

It seems like some of the best Prince material is rarely offered by Prince. Sometimes I wish he wasn't such a control freak and would let others market his work. But it's his work and he can do with it what he pleases. | |

(mentioned it here before) I've never heard 'International Lover' LIVE before apart from a brief bit on the NAGOYA '89 CD.... but never the full version from '82. You guys have convinced me to keep my eyes open for a copy! “Tuna, you better do something or else we gonna have to put you back in the can!” | |
