Albums & corresponding tours Could someone break down which tour corresponds to which album...(I am trying to organize my "live" recordings.) 
here's what I have so far: Album: Tour Dirty Mind: Dirty Mind Controversy: Controversy 1999: 1999 Purple Rain: Purple Rain Parade: Hit & Run 86 & Parade/UTCM SOTT: SOTT Lovesexy: Lovesexy D&P: D&P Gold Experience: Gold Experience NPS: NPS TRC/ONA: One Nite Alone Musicology: Musicology (I think) those are pretty obvious (please correct me if I have mistakes); but what albums did the following tours go with? Nude Act I Act II Hit & Run 94 L4OA Jam of the Year--was this Emancipation? Hit & Run 00--was this Rave or NPGMC launch? Thanks!!  The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp. | |

Prince album was supported on the Rick James Tour
Dirty Mind - Dirty Mind Controversy - Controversy 1999 - also known as The Triple Threat tour (Prince, The Time, Vanity 6) Purple Rain - Purple Rain Hit & Run 86 - Parade Under The Cherry Moon - Parade Sign 'O' The Times - Sign O The Times Lovesexy - Lovesexy Nude - not quite batman and not qute Graffitit Bridge - Basically just a tour. Diamonds and Pearls - D&P Act I & II - basically served as the tour for the O)+> album Hit & Run 94 - not too sure on this one Ultimate Live Experience - Exodus and Gold Experience before it came out Gold Experience - Gold Expereience L41A Charity - not sure how this one really fit in either, close to Jam of The Year shows tho Jam of the Year - Emancipation - kinda Newpower Soul - New Power Soul One Night Alone - One night alone Musicology - Musicology - also known as another greatest hits tour. maybe someone else can be a bit more acurate...just going off memory and guesses. | |

Yeah, you pretty much got it spot on sovembol.
The Nude tour was a best of tour, before GB and after Batman, it was a money thing, taking advantage of the strong markets in Europe and Japan, not really promoting any particular album. Act I was the USA  tour
Act II was a continuation of Act I, but by this time, Prince had decided to change his name, and billed it as a hits show, the "last chance" to see the hits. Readers of Controversy magazine in the UK got to pick tracks for the show (the tracks were already a part of it) - hence the inclusion of stuff like The Beautiful Ones and Sometimes It Snows (this was my first Prince gig, it was great seeing all the hits because I'd only been into him a year or two when the Hits came out and everything, it was a great introduction - I digress).
Hit & Run '94 - Uhm, these are the Glam Slam shows? Not any release promoted. L4OA - The PP shows of 95? No release promoted, sounded like brilliant shows the, the setlists were amazing, love these boots! Ultimate Live Experience - Playing the Gold Experience stuff, pre-release, very exciting, but turned off A LOT of casual fans who didn't know the stuff they were playing. JOTY - Was billed as a world tour, on the back of Emancipation, but when EMI kealed over, it turned into a greatest hits show. The '98 tour - NPS / GCS2000 / Come 2 My House ONA - I'd say this was a show "promoting" TRC, at least it played a large chunk of the album, along with lesser hits and such - a lot like the '95 Gold tour IMO, and another of my favourites. | |

Excellent! Thanks everyone...this is exactly what I need.  The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp. | |
