"when you were mine" First Avenue 1982 Appreciation

Prince's best live version of that amazing song ever.
That guitar hook through the entire song
is something else.
i hope it's released on video, one day.
All of those First Avenue shows.

I agree. Being from MN I have deep fondness and appreciation for his First Ave shows.

When You Were Mine is my favorite Prince song of all - and this might well be my favorite live version of it.

It still kills me that I never got to hear him perform this song in person. sad

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

I love the way he played it in '88 on the Lovesexy tour.

One of my favorite Prince songs. The August 83 version is my favorite because it sounds so raw and energetic but now I need to find this 82 version. You got me curious.
