Which Prince tours have been professionally filmed and broadcasted?

I'd love to see footage from the Jam Of The Year or New Power Soul tours... or the Interactive tour...

Were any of these filmed and broadcasted on television anywhere?

I guess all Tours have been professionally recorded, though only some have been broadcast as full concerts:

Purple Rain Tour (TV, VHS)
Parade Tour (TV)
Sign O The Times Tour (CINEMA, VHS, DVD)
Lovesexy Tour (TV, VHS)
Nude Tour (TV)
Act I (I´m not sure, but wasn´t that broadcast as part of the Rock in Rio-concert?)
The Beautiful Experience (TV)
One Nite Alone (DVD)
Musicology Tour (CINEMA)
See the man with the blue guitar, maybe one day he`ll be a star...

It's very obvious that the Musicology tour has been Professionally filmed but I don't understand why it has yet to be released or broadcasted, it was great.

RELEASE THEM FOR CHRIST SAKES!!!!

It can be such a bloody pain being a prince fan! While so many other lesser talents routinely releases concert dvds of their latest tours, Prince, who it appears has professionally recorded all his tours, virtually never releases any (and when he does it's highly edited!!) WTF!!!!????

He could release box sets of live concert dvds for each tour decade, one box set for the 80's, one for the 90's and the 00's: but no, nothing. PRICK!

He can't complain about bootleg dvds when time and time again tours pass with no official live dvds released. But unfortunately for average joe, those live bootlegs are all but impossible to come by. Yet anybody else with any sort of musical legacy (and even those without) flood the market with live dvds. He really screws the fans on this count. F- buddy, F fucking - !

Just thank God you're not a Michael Jackson/J5 fan. At least the Prince tour videos exist in some space and time, and VHS can be copied onto home-made DVDs easily now.

I don't think Act 1 was shown on TV, but the Rock in Rio concert was (hybrid of Nude and D&P)
The Beautiful Experience wasn't really a concert was it ??

One of the nights at Earls Court in London on the Diamonds & Pearls Tour in 1992 was professionaly filmed for an intended release xmas 1992. However, it didn't happen for some reason (though if you hunt around you can find it unofficially!)
'I loved him then, I love him now and will love him eternally. He's with our son now.' Mayte 21st April 2016 = the saddest quote I have ever read! RIP Prince and thanks for everything.

The Beautiful Experience focuses heavily on a concert Prince gave at Paisley Park in February 1994. The movie contains live-versions of "Interactive", "Days Of Wild", "The Jam", "Shhh!" and "Now" and videoclips for "Come", "Race", "Acknowledge Me", "Pheromone", "Loose" "Papa" and "The Most Beautiful Girl In The World". I would count it as a concert movie anyway.

I know they were filming professionally the last night in Vegas. What a great night! I hope they release that one.
