What live Concert videos of there of Prince? I'm talking legal ones, ones that I can purchase?

Is there a list compiled somewhere? It's been too long since I've seen him live. I need a fix

Official...On dvd

Vegas - the aladin
Rave into...2000
Sign of the times

Unofficial...
TOO many to list

It blows my mind he didn't make a video of One Night Alone...LIVE!

Well, I'm sure he did. It blows my mind he didn't release it at the same time he did the discs.

was the last one aladdin?
i'm just discovering some of the early concerts thx 2 org buddies

Right... Prince and the npg - live at the aladin - vegas

Is the Aladdin disc any good? The reviews on Amazon say it's edited oddly and half the show is missing.

bleutuna said:

It sounds great
But its highly Edited, the show is way incomplete, The show is too short...
the only bonus / extras u get is a 1 minute promo.. and 1 bonus live performance
Its kinda disapointing..... But it still might make u happy.. confusing i know

It is an absolute shame, and probably my biggest gripe with Prince, that he hasn't released a quality concert video.
By quality I mean a well produced, high audio and video of a complete concert such as Coachella.

Aladdin is a pathetic concert dvd unworthy of release by an artist of Prince's stature (not that stature ) and talent.

he looks HOT & the songs are great even tho he dances a bit like my dad at times
it's def worth watching at least 4 wholelottalove

I like,and own all these.

Prince and the Revolution Live is another

Prince And The Revolution Live (vhs, 1985)
Sign O' The Times (concert movie, vhs, 1987)
Lovesexy Vol.1 & 2 (2 vhs', 1988)
The sacrifice of Victor (aftershow, 1993)
Beautiful strange (Live at the Café de Paris, London, vhs, 1998)
Rave Un2 The Year 2000 (dvd, 2000)
Live at the Aladdin, Las Vegas (dvd, 2002)

I don't know if I missed something. These are all official.

The editing is really odd, but the worst thing about it is the sound quality - it's dreadful. A big shame.

yeah i have las vagas too and i think its too short.but what can i say i add it to my collection. i like the 1+1+1=3 live though.

Now that's some funky shyt right there!

i read recently somewhere that P gave Warners a set of his live CD's from several years worth of tours to release as CD's!. Talk about a missed opportunity. That would have been really great.

you have that right! that is the funk. uhmmhummm.

oh and it got love rollercoaster and housequake combined.

When Did Beautiful Strange get released officially ????? Dont remember this ever been available, only copying it from channel 4's broadcast with that fucking Scary Spice annoying talentless bitch ruining the whole thing ,Prince should have locked the fucking door of Paisley Park that day.

purplecorvette1 said:

I don't have that one. I do have a Purple Rain concert though.

What about The Undertaker? was that ever officially released?

The CD was never released - some copies were printed and then (mostly) destroyed. But never released.
As for the video, I don't think it was ever available in the US. It was released on VHS in Europe and on laserdisc in Japan. (And unofficially on DVD-R )

You could buy it through the NPGMC in the early 2000s. That's how I got my copy.

Me to.

I've been to one of the shows (in Holland). If you compare the energy and the excitement from the show with the Aladdin DVD, the last one is absolutely shit. bad sound, bad picture, bad editing. its not the (songs from) show in a row, but edited so they all stand 'alone'... the whole live experience is gone. I would say the worst thing from prince i ever spend my money on.

I disliked the length, but otherwise enjoyed it. What isn't to love about him shredding on a Led Zepplin song, and putting his guitar to rest when he's done? Absolute classic to me, even if it was for Whole Lotta Love alone.

Forgot about the old downloads,did it have bloody scary spice in it as well?

purpleparty3000 said:

It wasn't a download, it was a VHS video - they shipped it out to you. It contained the Mel B interview, a 40min performance from the 1998 Cafe de Paris aftershow, and the promo videos for "Beautiful Strange" and "Come On".

There's also some live stuff on Diamonds & Pearls
