He did a couple of average performances in 99 of TGRES and a frighteningly boring 'Baby knows'. At least his 'Pretty Man' performance on TFI around that time helped salvage some credit...

The Holy River is the ONLY one I recall, actually in the studio for TOTP. Thought 'Baby Knows' was only TFI Friday, cos that deffinataly happened also.

It was the Mustang Mix performance. Taped at Paisley Park, specifically for TOTP. They also taped Endorphinmachine at the same time, which you can find on the Interactive CD-Rom.

TOTP Studio performances:

'Get Wild' (March 1995)
'The Holy River' (Feb. 1997).
'Baby Knows' (Nov. 1999)
