Hej guys!

I was just watching one of the Montreaux concerts Prince did during the summer, and as always Prince was great. But I couldn't help to notice that the performance of "Little Red Corvette" was outstanding, it was soooo good! I think this is the best live version of this song I've ever heard of before, all the guitar solos gave me goose bumps!! The whole part when he was like "slow down" Oh myyy goood! I can't even imagine how it would be to hear Little Red Corvette live.

So I was wondering what you all here in the org that have seen this performance thought of it? Did you also like it? And also you who saw it live, please tell us who waren't there how it was.

Take care!

I prefer the version he played at Coachella. I watch that performance almost every day. But his Montreaux gigs are excellent nonetheless.

When are some of us going to be able to go into "Target," and purchase these great concerts?

I haven't seen that performance, gotta look it up now
Prince was amazing in Montreaux, no sign of him becoming older on those performances lol

Sorry but I don't know, I saw the whole concert on TV, but you can probably find the videos somewhere in the internet, if you look it up

Absolutely love it. A really cool modification of a classic--doesn't get any better than that!

Yeah, Montreux '09 and Coachella are my favorite versions.

I haven't seen it but I heard it for the first time today. I thought the first performance was outstanding. Actually I've enjoyed listening to it. Didn't get all the way through it but I will this week.

That's what I thought too. This should definitely have been released. Prince and the band were in stellar form.

Yeah I actually saw it on TV, but they aired the whole festival in a TV channel called Mezzo I think, I'm not sure, it was a French channel

YES they should definitely release it, I would buy it in an second haha, I love almost everyone of his performances but there was something special with Montreaux, it was only about the music in some way, it wasn't so much about what he had in the stage (dancer, porps etc.), it was only him and his band and I really enjoyed watching it

It blew me away! The guitar part is just too much.

The first montreux concert was Prince at his best. That's why i'm still waiting for that montreux dvd! He just has to release this one!

he dont do too many moves on stage but he wasw having passionate sex with the song that night, and the audience all willing participants in the corvette orgy

Yeah, it was pretty good although I agree that Coachella was the best peformance I'd heard of it in a long time.

Anyone wants to talk about the All The Critics Love U in Montreux version? that must've been the best ever performance of that song too.

The performance was beautiful

Both shows were absolute fantastic, Little Red Corvette beeing one of many highlights !!

I agree, All The Critics Love U In "Montrow"-the only funky song played that night was outstanding too and the beginning of the finale grande !

That theses concerts were shown on TV is a surprise and gives hope for some kind of release.....
