Not advertisimg a bootleg for sale, as in i am offering it for sale. I am providing info about the contents of said bootleg.

liberation said:

suuure you are.

LadyCabDriver said:

Don't wink it's true!...i'm a trader, not a seller.

you should go to jail for posting this... you're not a true fan

i don't think you should yawn like that when you're in the big house... you're likely to get dickified

Yawn is right, Christ. He IS a true fan. People who care more about winning the graces of Prince are fams, and Lib is on the opposite side of the spectrum: a true fan.

theblueangel said:

fraid not... he steals prince's music...true fans don't do that

MrBliss said:

Then he is an ENTHUSIAST, god damn it.

Anxiety said:

tell that to the judge

MrBliss said:

For crying out loud, get 'em on the horn.

Anxiety said:

that comes later

He wants to steal anjis' thunder

liberation said:

An 8.29 version of A CASE OF YOU?!
I'm sold

MrBliss said:

I do not steal anything, others do that. And if any anytime Prince wanted me gone...he could do it.

liberation said:

you'd betta be providin only info! and wow...how long's it been since there wuz a fresh (well, semi-fresh on account the material's all from '98) bootlegg?

40acres said:

Hell no!...but look at it this way, if Anji was working for us and tryna get Prince in the right frame of mind to release some shit, that would be differet.

If you're talking to him to try explain the universe and the meaning of life then, why bother?

If i was talking to the brotha i'd be hipping him to some cool ideas to make $$$ and give the fans what they want.

Bootleggers are doing the job Prince SHOULD be doing, releasing the funk.

If Ian or Ben thinks i am selling, they can axe the thread. It's not even info i got myself. I copied and pasted from another website...but the boot market has been DEAD for ages and it's exciting to see something NEW come onto the market.

You are right...there are very few recordings from 1997-98 in circulation. You can find these recordings on bootlegs such as:

"All Access" 4CD
"Paisley Nites" 2CD
"Pasiley Power" 3CD
"If U Want Me 2 Jam" 2CDR
"Joy & Pain" 2CD

Oh great take his side...

Finally

Even though th (* shows were really MR LARRY GRAHAM concerts, this looks good as he's doesn't seem to be there or taking an active part anyway ..

YAY

I was at this show. Teddy Bear is the Elvis tune, which Prince rips up with his guitar. Bambi is awesome, but I don't seem to remember the other specific songs, except that the mood seemed to be incredibly loose. While all the Paisley shows of that era were worthwhile, sometimes Prince seemed focused on what he was playing or the arrangement, or on playing to the audience. This show seemed more like he was playing to himself, and having fun in the process.

Audience recording or soundboard recording?
