None of them are officially available on DVD.

Sign O The Times the movie is available on DVD (of course the 3 other movies are too and the Hits video collection)

Prince and the Revolution Live (1985) is available on VHS
Lovesexy Dortmund 1&2 is available on VHS and Laserdisc

Other concerts were televised and recorded and are circulating...
Like The Nude Tour live in Spain and Tokyo and Parade Birthday Concert from 86, also some from the 90s like Beautiful Experience..

However, every tour is unofficially circulating, say no more....

Yeah but he was asking about shows from the 80s..

For the record, although the ONA show and performance was good, the quality of the production and the sound and camera work makes Aladdin unforgivably CRAP. I can't watch it..SHITE. There's Rave as well, but I think he meant 80s classic tours.

As Prince fans we honestly deserve a better selection of his classic tours on DVD remastered with 5.1 sound on DVD but it ain't gonna happen, hell we haven't even got remastered Purple Rain CD and the thing is 25 years old!

Amazon.com

Purple Rain (special edition has 3 concert videos on it)
Under The Cherry Moon
Sign O The Times (concert movie)
Graffiti Bridge
Diamonds & Pearls Video Collection
The Hits
Rave Un2 The Year 2000
Live At The Aladdin

That's what is on DVD officially.....to my knowledge.

VHS includes
Prince & the Revolution LIVE (Purple Rain tour in Syracuse 30.Mar.85)
Gett Off Video Maxi Single
3 Chains O Gold

Anything else is a bootleg, and out there if you dig around. The Lovesexy show in Dortmund is a must. The Controversy Tour in Houston is hot too. There's a Detroit show from the Hit N Run tour at Cobo Hall. There's also a Toyko Nude Tour out there. Lots of other stuff. The Beautiful Experience and Love4OneAnother are fun ones too.

True.


Hey,I know on the "Hits" collection there's a liver performance of "I Would Die 4 U" is that taken from that concert? (and if it is, Baby, I gotta find it!)
I love a Man who:
Wears More Make Up Than Me.
Wears Four Inch Stilleto Boots.
Changes His Name To An Unpronouncable Symbol.
Who Changes His Name Back From An Unpronouncable Symbol.
Oh And Most Importantly, Who Is Sexy Little Drop Of Butterscotch

The 1985 VHS and The Hits both have different versions of "I Would Die 4 U". The 2 Disk Purple Rain DVD set has both "I Would Die 4 U" and "Baby I'm A Star", which both ran on MTV when the single was released. They were not filmed in Syracuse like the VHS of the tour was.
