Rock & Roll is Alive (it lives in Minneapolis!)

I've never seen this Prince video before, it's absolutely *nuts* but I love it!

You can get to it from http://www.mtv.com/bands/...re_040428/
just click on the Musicology video link, and you'll get a whole list of Prince videos you can watch.

Rock & Roll Is Alive was the B-Side to "Gold" single, a forgotten gem

I love Prince's outfit in this video, the whole thing is just crazy, but there's SO much energy in the NPG and Prince here.

Other than Prince's outfit, which looked absolutely rediculously embarrasing, the rest of the video was great.

I can't remember the colors but he did have a ski mask, one of those hooded coats like thugs wear, and snow boots. He looked like a drag queen out of drag.

It was part of the "Love 4 One Another" TV special.

I wonder if this was an answer to Lenny Kravitz's Rock & Roll is Dead that came out that same year

I was at the video taping of this at Paisley! Fun night. Recorded the Gold video that night as well.
