Description
The latest offering from the Prince estate and his long mythologized vault comes in the form of Prince And The Revolution: Live. The surprise release, recorded on March 30, 1985 at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse, New York as a part of the Purple Rain tour, marks the first official release of this widely-bootlegged concert and paired with a concert film from the same night. Concert film and live record alike, Prince And The Revolution: Live is a truly spectacular documentation of one of the greatest artists in history at his first major creative, and his definitive commercial, peak.
“Hello Syracuse and the world. My name is Prince and I’ve come to play with you” a distant voice declares before the familiar “Dearly beloved” kicks off the first song, “Let’s Go Crazy”. Prince And The Revolution are in truly fine form as they blast through a thrilling opening track. Naturally, the album includes a number of soon-to-be hits, including “Purple Rain”, “When Doves Cry”, “I Would Die 4 U”. It also includes a number of favorites from his previous records, such as “1999”, “Little Red Corvette”, and “Let’s Pretend We’re Married”, among others.
*You may have gathered we were & remain HUGE Prince fans!!
