'88 aftershow at the camden palace?

i was watching this documentary, i believe it's called "the prince of paisley park" (it's the one where he's working with mavis staples on "god is alive", plays "the ladder" at the end, etc.). at the very beginning eric clapton is talking, then it cuts to p singing "ooh ooh hoo, ooh ooh ooh hoo" giggle, before he kicks down the mic stand and goes into what looks like a kick-ass guitar solo. the first time i saw it i was like eek drool, i MUST hear this full performance beg lol . anyways, i read up on it and apparently it is from an aftershow in '88 at the camden palace in london??? my guess was that it was another awesome take on "just my imagination" (i love the small club version worship ), but i could be wrong. it looks SO cool. anyone hear this whole thing? any info on this is greatly appreciated! smile

Parts of that aftershow circulate but not the whole show unfortunately. The best version is a CD called 'Driving To Midnight Mass' so I'm told. I only have the show on an LP called 'Rogers Nelson' sound quality is far from perfect but it's a kinda cool boot anyway. smile

Does that mean that after I'm dead, I'll finally get to go to a Prince concert?

quick update: i heard the whole thing shhh and it is pretty awesome. nod i must say i still love the small club version a bit better, because this one takes a bit longer to get to the "good part", you know. guitar. but it rocks. headbang the full performance still eludes me though. pout guess i'll have to die unhappy. lol
