Name three Prince albums that you would love to see Prince perform in their entirety in concert.

Much like The Cure: Trilogy when they performed three full albums in concert back-to-back, which three Prince albums would you love to see Prince perform in concert back-to-back in their entirety. I'd love to see him do one of these and release it on DVD!

My 3 albums are: in this order:

Around the World in a Day (and I'd love to see him wearing that outfit from Raspberry Beret video while performing this album!!!!)

The Rainbow Children (I saw One Night Alone concert at Kodak Theater where Prince performed many tracks from this album and it's the best concert I've seen; I'd love to see him actually perform the whole album LIVE!!!!)

Planet Earth (especially since this is his last album, I'd love to see him perform all the songs from this album live especially looking forward to Guitar, Somewhere Here On Earth, The One U Wanna C and Chelsea Rodgers. Oh my God, just thinking about it makes me delirious!!!).


How about you?

1) Parade (still my favorite Prince album of all time)
2) Emancipation (three hours of love, sex and liberty wink )
3) The Chocolate Invasion (When I Lay, Judas Smile, Vavoom, etc... good times!)

Normally, I would have chosen The Rainbow Children as well, but I have the feeling that it was featured enough in the One Nite Alone tour. And Planet Earth would be great as well, but it's of a too recent date to judge.

Yes, but in combination with all the old "Hits" they somehow perished.

How about you?


U outcho mind? TRC?! He DID perform this in it's entirety, it was called the One Night Alone tour. And it was fine, but come on...

For me he comes out with his briefs, high heels, a trench coat and that greasy nigga Andre Cymone and performs the shit outta...

1. Dirty Mind ("Fuck this tame shit, who wants some 'Head'?")

Then at the climax of "Party Up" Prince gets us all to chant "You gonna have to fight your own damn war, cause we don't wanna fight no more!" then runs off stage. The lights change and he is brought down on stage laying in a lavendar flower, completely naked except for his bass guitar. The flower lands on top of Andre Cymmone (we presume he gets shoved down a trap door in the stage) and Prince starts a bass groove for "Eye No" and gets into...

2. Lovesexy

Cat is out there dancing her little ass off, Sheila takes over on drums, and they rock the whole album until we are brought to "Positivity" and are led to sing with Sheila and Cat "Hold On...to your soul, we gotta long way... to go!"

The lights go out and up again on a blank stage. The house lights come on and we sit in confusion for a good 20 minutes. All of a sudden we hear Mayte on the sound system, "Prince esta muerto! Prince esta muerto!"

The lights change again to a bright gold and purple. And out walks Sonny T, Michael B., and Tommy Barbarella... They start a groove that sounds familiar as O(-> comes over the sound system, "Ugh! Yeah! Ugh! Good Morning, Ladies and Gentelmen, boys and motherfuckin girls..." and off we go with...

3. The Gold Experience.

Mayte comes out and shakes her ass, as the most minimal, funky, rockin band kicks our ass from Pussy Control to Gold.

And Spanky is left laying on the floor, foaming at the mouth, wondering why he needs to keep living in a world where this doesn't happen every night!
I wish u heaven
