New topic
PrintableEverybody keeps talking about bringing new fans etc. That’s not the case. The only records that get a boost are the ones constantly shoved down our throats aka purple rain and 1999. This man had a 40 year career and everybody acts like he stopped making music after 1988. Was 78-88 the golden period? Yes. But there’s been greatness since. As far as this, am I shocked or surprised? No. My issue is if you are gonna stay in this era, at least give us a concert from the tour we don’t have or haven’t seen and heard over and over. Shit isn’t even the best show of the tour. Give me Worcester or La Forum or even MIAMI. Idk smh. | |

I must admit I was wondering why they put most everything from BS, RITY2000 and LATALV on the channel for free but not Syracuse? Possibly because WB is cheap and Sony ain't? A COMPREHENSIVE PRINCE DISCOGRAPHY (work in progress ^^): https://sites.google.com/...scography/ |

I agree. In the digital age the audio tracks of all these video albums deserve to be made available on audio-only format. I have a rip from the DVD but I'm glad casual fans who don't necessarily want to watch 2 hrs of Prince live can now listen to it on streaming platforms. Hopefully this will eventually be done with the other video albums. A COMPREHENSIVE PRINCE DISCOGRAPHY (work in progress ^^): https://sites.google.com/...scography/ |

The remastered audio of Syracuse was available on Tidal without the video as part of the deluxe expanded set until today when it has been removed. I guess somebody at the Estate realised their digital audio 'exclusive' was not so exclusive. Anyone else noticed this on any other streaming services? | |

Co-co -sign.
I've never seen this, as I have no video bootlegs. I'm excited!
Prince org seemingly hasn't changed which is why I never come around. Negativity reigns... So much for "have you had your + sign today?"
I have more faith in the Estate than the org. Plus, I understand more why Prince didn't have a will. "No more candy, no more candy for you" for a long time. "Free URself, B the best that U can B, 3rd Apartment from the Sun, nothing left to fear" Prince Rogers Nelson - Forever in my Life - | |

Wait, I don't believe it was. I have TIDAL, and I have had the PR Deluxe version downloaded from TIDAL since it was made available to stream years ago. And I never had the Syracuse audio as part of the set. I do remember a seperate, unoffical version of Syracuse available off and on on TIDAL over the years. But not as part of the PR Deluxe set. And it wasn't for sure the remastered version... | |

You don't need a bootleg as the remastered Syracuse concert is part of the Purple Rain deluxe set as a DVD. It was also offically released on VHS. | |

At least it's a new conspiracy for you that's not Covid-related :-) But yeah, in other words I made a mistake. And became outraged by my own imagination. So... good to have that audio soon.  | |

Waiting for Bobby Z interview to resume

Sorry to be the guy shitting the bed, but wasn't the vhs brighter in sound and crisper in pic? Also, synch is off on my side. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Still it's nice to know, when our bodies wear out, we can get another -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- |

I still have the VHS of this - I may never get rid of it even though I dont even have a VHS player lol.
Also, I'm hearing other instrumentation I've never heard before. Must be the new mastering. | |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Yeah it sounds better for sure, the backing vocals are mixed differently but still not pristine. Sound on that tour wasn't pristine. Picture looks like the VHS, just brighter. Surprised they didn't upres it to HD. | |

And also more than 52k people watching. Pretty cool I'd say.
I'm probably gonna get fishslapped [Edited 5/14/20 17:46pm] | |
