Prince-the Hits on VHS

I'm interested in buying Prince-the Hits on VHS. I have 2 questions:
1:Is it music videos or concert footage?
2:Is it worth buying?
If it doesn't fit, it's ugly anyway.

It's mainly the videos, 'I would die 4 u' is a live performance.
It's a good set for beginners, but it doesn't offer any surprises/extras.
Also the DVD hasn't got any special features.

It's worth getting if you haven't seen many of his
music vids, but it does leave alot of obvious choices out...
When Doves Cry, U Got The Look, Gett Off etc.

I have it - and I definitely think it's worth it -
It's mostly vidoes but it does have concert footage from the early controversy days. Good stuff!

Is there any reason you don't want the DVD? Just wondering . . .

I had the VHS for almost 10 years, and then just broke down and got the DVD a few months ago. Nothing new on the DVD, I just prefer that format now . . .

you must mean "dirty mind" and "uptown"...neither of those were live, they were more a cheesy faux-concert.

You could also find The Hits on Laserdisc if you look hard enough. But DVD would be the way to go now. Who the hell uses laserdiscs anymore anyway? lol

Anyways, the only live footage on that video would be the live performance of "I Would Die 4 U" from the Purple Rain tour. Great performance too.

i thought the 'sexuality' and 'controversy' vids were alot better,
mainly 'cause of the fact there's no stupid woman wearing 5 layers of clothing prancing around in the background. lol
