I doubt he will ever release a dvd of his best live performances. But lets just say you were in charge of picking the performances if he did..
Pick you favorite 10 live performances. Song, location and year. Example

Lets go crazy/Kiss - Arsenio Hall Show, 1991
Bambi - Tokyo, 1989
Peach - Montreux jazz festival, 2009
Creep - Coachella, 2008
The Cross - Dortmund, 1988
Whole Lotta Love - Las Vegas, 2003
My Guitar Gently Weeps - RRHOF, 2004
Te amo corazon, Purple Rain, Lets Go Crazy - Brit Awards, 2006
Purple Rain - Minneapolis, 1983
Purple Rain - Atlanta Ga, 1985

NEW MUSIC PRINCE

thats my dream dvd, dvd filled with new stuff

The last jam of 2009 at Paisley would be a good one. But my dream live dvd, would be a selection of tracks from a selection of gigs during his 21 Nights stint in London.

Or an aftershows compilation.

the 2002 Xenophobia celebration

If they could fix the sound somehow, that would be a good one.

There are several entire shows that were filmed at Glam Slam and Paisley Park that I would love to see the light of day.

It's truly disappointing that the artist has such a lackluster output of officially released live video. Considering the Vegas DVD has such crappy production, It's really odd, I think.

And hell...dvd? How about Sign of the Times on Blu-Ray? That's one I would like to see/buy.

MikeyB71 said:

Booh! Baaad!
THAT is exactly how HE would do it. Even like he did it with the aftershow release: one CD for 21 nights of aftershows (at ~14 of which he did appear).

MikeyB71 said:

See.
No compilations. Just give us the full, unedited thing.
It's easy and cheap.

errant said:

Hell YES. Nuff Sed.

The Paisley gig would be a pretty bad dvd choice. Lots of filler, half the time he wasn't on stage and Larry Graham.

I would love a Nice Pro-shot DVD of the Gold tour ''Live Experience''
I just thought that formation of the NPG was superb and super funky
The concert was great as well nearly all of the songs off the gold exp
with hardly any hits played,
I suppose it's because the GE is one of my fave albums
But there was just something ''Cool'' about him back then
Billy Jack Bitch, Race, P Control, Race e.t.c.
And the stage was amazing!!
And when he comes on to do GOLD at the end with the explosion and gold flakes everywhere!!
I just think it would of made a excellent DVD release
Any opinions?

JAYJOE said:

I think I can agree.
But I also think he is past that album/tour/show. Also his now-ex-wife is very much in that show.
So I doubt he will ever release a show.

We all know that Prince hasn't released a live concert Dvd in seven years.I even thoughtthat the Musicology tour would be released,considering the fact that is was his biggest grossing tour in 2004.I know a lot of you people say that I'll doubt he'll ever release anymore Dvd's.When the time is right,he'll put out one.I myself,would like to see a Blu Ray release of a best of hits from various tours,like the Controversy,Purple Rain,Lovesexy,2002 concerts,Musicology,etc.My hopes are still high.It's just a matter of time whenever Prince decides to release the shows.Peace!

WOW

`Paard van Troje` DVD!

JAYJOE said:

I haven't actually heard or seen anything from that tour, but if it's like the 1994 shows I've heard and the television performances, there was way too much use of backing vocal tracks and dialogue clips thrown into the performances for this to be satisfying to me. Yeah, it's great material and the band was awesome, but every time the NPG operator or chorus of Prince's on tape comes in or the music stops so we can hear dialogue from a movie or something on the stuff I've heard, I kind of cringe.

Diamonds and pearls tour, Act I, Act II or Gold/Ultimate experience tour...in HQ and profi! I love them

Camden palace 1988

.....But with his current beliefs this will never happen - shame!
[Edited 4/18/10 14:57pm]

the full unedited June 7th 1986 Detroit birthday show (which some orger a few years ago claims he seen with his own eyes at a Detroit Prince party in the early 90s) or the San Fransisco May 1986 Parade concert. Also, the June 7th 1984 birthday show @ First Avenue. Either one of those would do me just fine

udo said:

Camden Palace was filmed (on film!); PvT apparently exists on video but is basically very dark.

If he releases the Montreux DVD I will be already happy. Somebody said here that in the contract, the Montreux guys have the right to release it, and some snippets were posted on YouTube, but I wonder when it will be released.

But speaking of the past, any live concert with the ´real´ NPG (Sonny, Barb, Michael B, Hayes) would make me very happy. I simply love that band and that period around 95 was very funky.

The Palace, Nov 7 1988

GustavoRibas said:

Oh, he will pay them. It won't be released.

MikeyB71 said:

The last night (concert and after party) would be particularly amazing. Then I can do that geeky thing of pausing and trying to find myself in the audience lol

AshK said:

Last night was too mainstream.
29th of august aftershow , despite the lyrical changes is killer.

Oh yeah - my eyebrows are still smoking from the rendition of Calhoun Square that was done there
