TRC is just as amazing on wax. They sound great live because he can really jam out and improvise if he needs to.

I prefer the verison on the One Nite Alone DVD. I wear that shit out.

I also prefer his performances of Musicology he did on Jay Leno and Much Music.

If only the live version still had that ultra-funky, high-pitched wahwah guitar or keyboard or whatever the heck it is that is making those quirky sounds, I'd agree.
And this theocratic order stuff is just irritating for me.

I think Prince thought this was better live too - he released three different live versions of it over the two years after TRC was released - the first was the Xenophobia Celebration version released as a free MP3 on NPGMC in 2002 (back when we all thought we'd be getting an official 7CD set of the shows... - in fact, the end of the track has Prince saying "Xenophobia - coming soon to a monitor near you..."); the second was the ONA Live version from Lakeland included on the Days Of Wild Montreal single and on ONA Live; the third was on the Live At The Aladdin DVD - my favorite of the three - I could watch that on repeat for hours...

Some of the last performances from the ONA tour are weak as duck though. I have the Tokyo live on video-CD and that one especially. Eeew.... disgustingly lazy.

This one could even be better than the one on ONA CD.

hmmm...am I the only one who disagrees this time?
I love the album version...it has a nice vibe...some weird key/gtr effects...and it reminds me of Erotic City...
The live version is great for dancing, but I prefer studio...

How could the live version blow your mind more than the album version? You must not have very high standards.
