Agreed...a great performance! Funny how the version shown at the first Celebration was of no better quality than the version that is floating around. We need 2 come 2gether, come 2gether as ONE  We need 2 come 2gether, come 2gether as ONE | |

Songs performed that night were the foundation for the studio(overdubbed) versions of Let's Go Crazy and Purple Rain. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

You could feel the heat in the room... the funk was that thick, you have to remember to catch your breath watchin it. "That...magic, the start of something revolutionary-the Minneapolis Sound, we should cherish it and not punish prince for not being able to replicate it."-Dreamshaman32 | |

I JUST got it and watched it over the weekend. It's everything they say it is. I don't think Let's Go Crazy was used - Baby I'm A Star was definitely used, but Let's Go Crazy was all studio I thought. But who cares - yeah, it's all that. I ALSO caught the America video - the one with him in the big ole black hat and overcoat - MAN! THAT performance BLEW MY MIND! The Last Otan Track: www.funkmusician.com/what.mp3 | |

I agree on all points, otan. Great '83 performance, and the America video is so phucking hype! Obviously a song he was proud to get into. I am MrVictor.... | |

I got it too. I love his version of Joni's "A Case of You" The guitar solos was the best.  | |

This one is fantastic! I just love his early trial of "A Case Of You", the wonderful "Electric Intercourse" and the irresistible "I Would Die 4 U". You can get the video on "Sound & Vision, vol. 1", the quality is great. But remember that you don't have to buy boots  -----------------------------------------
