Minneapolis news shows bootlegged Prince rehearsal. Last night Local MPLS new station WCCO played footage of Prince and The Revolution rehearsing from 1984. It is the green tinted video. Question: Where was this filmed? Are they at the infamous warehouse? "New Power slide...." |

It's a story on Prince's rare videos, I guess.

Music Web site Daily Swarm found videos from 1984 and posted them to YouTube. In them, you get a rare look at Prince singing, dancing and directing his band. The Daily Swarm: Prince Rehearsal Videos From 1984 WATCH (WHILE YOU CAN): PRINCE REHEARSAL VIDEOS FROM 1984...

This is starting to smell like a pre-meditated "leak".
I just wish Prince had a website where he could post exclusive videos like this. Maybe one where people would pay a fee for access to exclusive rare videos and 10 albums of unreleased music. That would be awesome. I'd pay $77 dollars for that. Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it. |

I don't think the Daily Swarm actually posted these to YouTube, more likely they found them there... unless they posted them and then waited a week to tell anyone... | |

Yes it was the Warehouse. It was filmed on June 7, 1984, his birthday. They were rehearsing for the First Avenue birthday gig later that evening (which the audio for has been bootlegged out I believe). And, according to studio records, and Per Nilsen's DMSR book, it's also the date of the actual recording for "All Day, All Night". When you see Prince and the Revolution playing it in the video, THAT is them actually recording it. That is the version you eventually hear on Jill's album, sans his vocals of course. The recording is also historic because it has them playing "Roadhouse Garden" and "Our Destiny". Also interesting to see the infamous Susan Rogers running around doing her job. It's truly a great piece of Prince history. I just presented this video to a band member the other day and asked if they had seen the video before. They had, and added that even back then Prince was notorious w/ folks for recording every performance, and dissecting it afterward; even a rehearsal. The very end of the video is funny, once it's over and everyone files out of the room. Fink's dork side shines as he says "WHAT ELSE ARE WE PLAYING?" or something like that. | |

OMG..  .Prince was getting the feeling in the "When Doves Cry" rehearsal. He looked like he was in church doing the "Preacher Man Walk and Stomp" when you catch the spirit in you in church. Lawd have mercy he took it to church from mark 5:53 in the video to the end in the "When Doves Cry" video. I couldn't stop laughing when he was doing the preacher man stomp at the end like he "caught the feeling", and I absolutely loved every minute of it. Felt like raising my chu'ch fan and raising my right hand and saying "Hallelujah!"
These are the kinds of rare videos members of the Lotus site should have been able to see on Prince's official fan site. Even if it was for purchase. I absolutely enjoyed watching it, and domehow don't feel guilty because the source comes from a news station apparently. [Edited 2/16/10 11:53am] | |

[Edited 2/16/10 11:52am] Honey, I don't care about none of that! I really don't. I've just gone exploring back in time  and right now where I am, it's August 3rd 1983. Prince and I, the Revolution and a whole bunch of other folks are having ourselves one absolutely, positively, motherfucking STUPENDOUS time at the First Avenue!!!

To set the record straight, the recording of All Day, All Night that ended up on Jill Jones' record was from the First Ave show and not this rehearsal, correct?

I believe it was the one in the rehearsal. I think there's a stop and restart on it to get it right, in the video. | |

Thank you very much.
I've only seen the When Doves Cry rehearsal so these other ones are great. I didn't expect the warehouse to be so gloomy though, but maybe that's just the camera? EDIT: Prince with no shoes  [Edited 2/16/10 13:23pm] | |

It may even be in the liner notes of her album. Edit: Found the info here: http://www.princevault.co..._All_Night (of course) About the song
All Day, All Night is the fifth track on Jill Jones's first and only Paisley Park Records album Jill Jones. Although Jill Jones shared official writing credits, the song was written solely by Prince and is registered at the Library of Congress as having been written by Joey Coco. In 2009, Prince used the label All Day, All Night for two concerts in Paris, France on 11 October: a 5pm show (All Day) and a 10pm show (All Night); he also performed the song and used chants from the song several times during the shows and others that followed later that week; it remains to be seen if there is a further purpose behind this use of the song's name. Initial tracking for Prince's original version took place during Prince & The Revolution's concert on 7 June, 1984 at First Avenue in Minneapolis, MN, USA (this is listed in the unreleased versions section since it was used as a basis for the released track). Prince added further instrumentation and Jill Jones added vocals at a later date (likely 1986-7, although this is unconfirmed). Recording info 7 June, 1984 - First Avenue, Minneapolis, MN, USA - Live recording 1986-7 Recording personnel Jill Jones - vocals Prince - all vocals (unreleased version only) and guitar Bobby Z. - drums Brown Mark - bass guitar Wendy Melvoin - guitar Lisa Coleman - keyboards Dr. Fink - keyboards [Edited 2/16/10 13:40pm] If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Alright...this now reeks of publicity stunt. Not that I'm complaining, except, you know, the whole website rip off thing. The vids are great though. Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it. |
