Prince at the Conga Room, OMFG!!!! I just got a copy of this show and I gotta say it's probabaly Prince's greatest show in ages. Prince, Michael B., Sonny T., no filler, no unncessesary instruments, no women singing or dancing all over the stage. Three bad-ass musicians playing an amazing rock show. It's what Prince should have been doing all these years instead of dicking around with nonsense.
Check the tracks:
01 - Prince Talks 2 Sonny T. 02 - I'm Yours 03 - Colonized Mind 04 - Chaos And Disorder 05 - With A Little Help From My Friends (The Beatles) 06 - Prince Talks 2 Michael B. 07 - I Like It There 08 - All Shook Up (Elvis Presley) 09 - Empty Room 10 - Peach 11 - Spanish Castle Magic (Jimi Hendrix) 12 - When You Were Mine 13 - Guitar 14 - Prince Talks About His Guitar 15 - Dreamer

@ CallMeSir, may I ask what version you have, is it the one on Akashic Records?
If so, then there is a slightly better version (imo) on Eye Records, here is some info http://discrockplace.co.jp/page092.html
Anyway, whichever version you have, it sure is a great show.

THIS is the tour that Prince should do. But I understand that it's extremely unlikely that Michael B. will play with Prince again. |

I'm happy with what he's doing now, but if was just him, a bass player and drummer that would be great. As for this show excellent, but the versions available are fairly ordinary. Absolutely no disrespect for the efforts in briniging it to us, but if the soundboard would fall off the back of a truck... that would be another story.

How come this?
Prince is a musician not a lifestyle. |

Is there a difference between that and The Power Trio set? Because the tracklist is almost identical. |

The eye and Akashic releases both have the same power trio set, but they differ slightly in quality. The eye set also includes the two other gigs that Prince played that night, "3 gigs, 3 bands, 1 day." The 1st show was a regular kind of set played at the the nokia theatre, then there was the power trio set at the conga rooms, then a jazzier sort of set at club nokia..all in the same day.

I like this performance of "All Shook Up" (if this is the one I'm thinking it is). |

I'm curious too. But I would imagine it would be that Prince is just being the unreliable, pain in the ass that he is. Prince is a master bridge burner. |

From what I've heard, Michael B wasn't too thrilled that after the show at the Conga Room, Prince split and didn't have a way home arranged for Michael and Sonny. They were pissed about this.
