Do you really even qualify PE as a classic? You're funny! I sure do! The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

Many times in the history of man, greatness is not seen untill many, many years later. I've been thumping how great this album is on this very site ever since I first joined. I was shocked to see that I was damn near alone in my thoughts on how brilliant this album is. I can't count how many threads I've written about the album. About that tour. About his unreleased songs from that album.Many threads. I've actually held back on threads from this album thinking nobody on here was really into the album like I am. Cool to see that there are a FEW more folks. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

I read up on the Grammy Hall of Fame, and nothing is eligible until it is at least 25 years old, so this was 1999's first opportunity to be inducted. I kinda doubt it got in because of Prince presenting... Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018!
