First Ave 83

AAAH...I just watched it again after a looong time.
All I gotta say is "DAYUM"

If you haven't seen it...GET IT!!! If you got it...WATCH IT AGAIN!!!

I'm an old school faN...I know NOTHING of TRC, ONA or N.E.W.S except that they are collecting dust on a shelf...somewhere in the house.


FirstAve 83...is nothing short of one of the best live perfomances...IMO

here are some screenshots!!









Enjoy

it's an electrifying performance. one of prince's best performance that i've seen. especially 'computer blue' and 'electric intercourse' are supurb.
don't need no reefer, don't need cocaine
purple music does the same to my brain
i'm high, so high

I only have the audio for this show. I've never seen it but I'm sure its amazing. Electric Intercourse is sooo good. Its the best version I've ever heard. When he sings "baby don't you know your technicolour climax is at my fingertips"...



drool I have to go change my underwear Ooops



And now I've just seen the pics OMG

And that Morris Day voice in DMSR. I've never heard him speak like that! So who created that voice? Prince or Morris?

So I have not figured it out , is it worth getting? Actually I watched the Detroit Birthday 86 show, I think it is an absolute blast to watch, is First Av even better. And where the Lovesexy vid fit in the scheme of things?

It's one of Prince's best performances...ever.

So it's definately worth getting. nod

Probably his best performance on video IMO.My only quibble is Wendy is a little rusty on the guitar(solo on Little Red Corvette). Hopefully a proper release will someday show up on DVD.A prsitine copy exists (check out the BBC documentary for proof).

Yeah, I noticed that too...'tis understandable though, considering this was her 1st time playing live with the rest of 'em.

...and it doesn't help much when Princey leaves her playing the opening chords to 'Purple Rain' for almost 5 minutes. lol

I still think that this is the best bootleg live performance video.

It's so fucking raw! (and intimate).

woot!
