...small club don't move me at all. that's right, i said it. i probably am the only person in the purple realm who hasn't been moved by this bootlegg. folks talk about small club like it's the best thing since water. nice show, sure, but...what am i missin here? i've listened to the entire thing, beginnin to end...i ain't really feelin it.

call me distant, crazy, weird, not-with-it, jive, whatevs...but i had to speak my piece.



p.s. if you think this is a diss on the bootlegg, lemme be the first to serve ya with one of these...




oh well, edit

No biggie, I know a few who aren't big on this. I personally don't like People without, and Just My Imagination, the guitar was decent, but I think the vocals sound forced or something. And, still would stand all time is kind of neat in the sense that it was its first appearance, but I think it sounds dull, and drags on on Small Club. Don't feel too bad!

I'm a big fan of Down Home Blues, Cold Sweat, and Instrumental Jam

it's about to be blasphemous in here... so take off all your clothes!

I like the Small Club boot, but it is overrated. The version of 'Housequake' on this show reminds just how much Eric needs to be on this song!!!

I don't mean to be cliche, but the solo on 'Just My Imagination' is a great one, one of the best I've heard.

handclaps...there's no sin in not liking small club.
although i digs it a lot...another opinion ain't
wrong.

those of us who think its the best thang since sliced
bread...that's OUr view.

we still love ya. (some of US anyway!)

Small Club was the first live Prince boot that I ever cared to own. It's not that it's the greatest show. It's not that it blows your pants off and still calls you the next day, it's just that it's weird and subtle, maybe even creepy, and there isn't anything else quite like it. The recording is crystal clear, but the mix is all off and the audience is almost non-existant... I don't know that I did a hail mary or even broke a sweat the first time I listened to it, but I still dig it a lot. It's very bare-bones. It's very imprompdu. It's even got mistakes, and people without is just fucked up. What's he trying to say there?? Half of it is sympathy and half-judgement. Is it even his song? Does anybody know? It's a mysterious record and I think that's what I like. Plus I like Bonnie.

On the flip side. I one time lent a copy of it to a co-worker at a guitar shop and she had nothing but criticism. so either way
