Of All the Sabotage New Power Soul Festival Releases, Which Are Worth Getting? Any of them? Which ones have the best sound quality and set lists? All the usual web sites list the sound quality as being EX or EX-, but it's hard to tell which ones are really worth getting. Do any of them stand out?

Those tours were horrible. As my luck would have it, it was the first time I had the money to follow Prince around, and the show in Huntsville Alabama was similar to some of those European Festival shows. If I had to say which release was the best for these crappy shows, I'd have to lean toward Thunderball's "All Access." I usually stray from highlight collections, but it is 4 discs, 1 complete show, and a best of many others. You get the closest thing to a full version of Computer Blue that you will ever get from Prince since 1985, and it actually sounds decent...practically a miracle for that band. Most of the songs are loose fragments or medleys or watered down arrangements that make Welcome 2 America seem like a combination of the Sign O The Times Tour and Lovesexy in terms of quality. In fact, as much crap as I give Shelby and Prince on the current tour, it at least has some great moments...but from 1997-2001 there were hardly any great moments...a sad time to be a Prince fan...but even then, each show probably had at least 10 great minutes. | |

I don't know if it's a sabotage release, but I like "the electric factory". | |

For my money (or rather, free download) best Sabotage from this era are Disco 2000 (such a great audience recording, pretty standard setlist although Love...Thy Will Be Done is thrown in there) and R U Gonna Go My Way (also excellent sound and phenominal setlist, one of my all-time faves) Go get'em while u can...
