It's something like 2 hours of brilliance.
Mostly very accessible for the masses.

There is a part though where prince says "uh.", 2 the beat, (as is very common these days) and larry graham comes back with: "uh, that's right, ya'll, uh", and this totally throws prince from his passion and he looks back to larry in irritation.

This is the 1st time I realised that true 2 common belief: Larry is a twit. lol

An irregular golden moment.

The DVD is terrible. I could NOT get all the way through it. Super Edited, people look bored etc. Now we have all been to a concert of his and know this is not how it is.

I heard it took 3 days to shoot, so that was part of the issue.

I also started a similar thread after I watched it.

hmm intresting-you do have a point though it is nothing like a real prince gig and is quite artificial.

its alright i guess.

Moris Day and The Time's performance's are excellent. Plus some of Princes stuff he deos is pretty nifty. I just dont like Rosie Gaines at ALL.

Some of the upclose crotch shots are a bit eye opening as well. The cover is pretty disturbing too!

the video is worth for watching prince so clearly and close. some very good moments worth watching.

...and that beautiful black girl in the audience makes it even better.

appear to be too short when he raises his hand.

I just lokked at the dvd cover and I'd have to watch it again to find out exactly which song. Sorry, I can#t do that right now.
Next time you watch it watch out for Larry, everytime he opens his mouth or gets in the way - watch out.

LOL... I'm sure his valuable imput of banging away on a railing was noted by the band.

What about the bored girl during Rasberyy Beret. The camera zooms in on her when the crowd is singing the chorus and she's looking around bored. Have some Berocca missus!

Yeah. Don't know who that is but that bit is quite hard to get past. I think I've switched it off a couple of times during that bit but once you're through that, the rest is a groove.

I'll say it's iight. I'd recmomend it to another Prince fan. I'd give it an 7-8 around there.

a wasted opportunity by prince 2 not capitalize on showcasing songs from Rave..and not very accurate in set list...the time footage was done on the previous day

the bonus extras r a joke since he could have shown the whole song instead of snippets
man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81

It's fairly horrendous in my opinion. Very dated and far too edited for my liking. Staged staged and staged. My wife and daughter laughed most of the way through wondering what the fuck he was wearing.
