Denver 1983 Soundboard 9.3 - Typical of the sharp and detailed board tapes from this tour.
Detroit 1983 Video source 8.6 - Possibly grabbed off a VHS or some other video source. I cannot confirm this 100% but my ears tell me that is the case here. It is a professional recording with a lot of issues concerning compression and noise – I say it is pro because of the location this is being recorded from which seems definite it is not from the audience.

Soundboard 9.7 - One of the most interesting concerts by Prince I have heard. It’s an after show gig, and Prince is cutting loose with some amazing guitar solos, to the point where it is hard to believe it is actually him playing. Certainly one to add to your collection, and one that will get frequent plays. -
Audience 8.7/8.8 - A little fluctuation but not much, mainly due to at times where the recording sounds a little further away probably due to taper hiding his gear. A very lively show, you can tell this is at a time when Prince mania was at a real high level (especially considering this was New Year's Eve!). Fun to reminisce… Prince Reunion Arena Dallas, TX December 31, 1984 Disc 1 01. LET'S GO CRAZY 02. DELIRIOUS 03. 1999 04. LITTLE RED CORVETTE 05. YANKEE DOODLE DANDY 06. FREE 07. TAKE ME WITH U 08.

PURPLE RAIN -
Audience 9.3 - At first I thought this might be a board, it’s very clean and clear. Then in spots, especially crowd (but some boards get bleed from stage mics) but certainly during hand claps it gives it away. It’s a really sweet recording for sure, and just sublime playing all over the place.

Audience 9.0 - Recorded in the middle of a whole lot of fun but retains a nice focus on the music throughout. When you listen, you begin to fully kind of appreciate the aspects of an audience tape that soundboards simply don’t provide – there’s an immersive quality to it, as long as the audio fidelity is good you can relive the concert through the taper and his position in the audience. Really nice! Prince Coachella Music And Arts Festival Empire Polo Field (Main Stage) Indio, CA. April 26, 2008 Disc 1 1. Intro 2. The Bird 3. Jungle Love 4. The Glamorous Life 5.

Harvelle's Funk E Jam 11. Jungle Love Medley 12. Turn Me Loose -
Audience 9.1 - Atmospheric, where even if it may be recorded from somewhere in the middle, the immersive experience has been well captured. Vocals sound lush and full, and percussion is crisp and well defined with a nice, rounded bottom end holding it all down. This is a decent recording that allows the listener to imagine where they are sitting and how the event sounded, the actual P.A. sound.

Radio/TV Broadcasts 9.4 - I have learned to trust most Prince titles now, generally speaking there is great care taken to preserve the fidelity, to obtain master sources, and to package appropriately. That seems only fitting when dealing with an artists’ of Prince’s caliber…and I mean that most sincere. The list of contents for this title is extremely long and extensive and I did not write it up. I do have an image that I am willing to email if you need to see the track listing. It does show the contents in detail. My apologies, but trust me this is a great title and all the info is on the artwork. -
Studio Quality 9.7 - As good as you can hope for. Prince recorded a lot of these tunes several times with different combinations and different mixes and that explains why you will see these tracks popping up on different collections. Hendrix did the same thing. Prince: Box O Chocolates Compilation of outtakes. All sourced from low generation tapes... NOTHING has been ripped from existing bootlegs. You won't hear a better version unless the purple vault is opened! 1. Witness 4 the Prosecution 3:52 2. Movie Star 4:24 3. A Place in Heaven 2:50 4. The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker 3:58 5. Starfish and Coffee 2:46 6. Girl O' My Dreams 1:27 7. Cant Stop This Feeling I Got 2:10 8. We Can Funk 5:31 9. Data Bank 7:56 10. Wonderful Ass 11. All Day All Night -
Audience 8.9 - A good, clear, and very strong recording. The percussion is crisp and detailed, all of the music is well balanced, Prince vocals are mixed above all which is great. This gig celebrated Prince’s receiving the Minnesota Music Awards honors. Prince 1986-05-20 Bloomington - Carlton Celebrity Room 6th Annual Minnesota Music Awards 01. Intro 02. Raspberry Beret 03.

Soundboard 9.7 - A pure unadulterated masterpiece of classic Prince music that ANYONE can appreciate. Rediscover this amazing talent, this is a packed set and well worth exploring. -

Audience 8.8 - Certainly a decent sounding tape, the band sounds a lot more grunge-like than glam pop here which is a good thing. The PA sound mix is off for a bit, with the Third Eye Girl guitar being buried in favor of Prince’s lead guitar role which hurts the interplay (as in the jam during Let’s Go Crazy) but as it goes they seem to get a little better with that.

Audience 9.5 - Yes, this is all audience recordings but the quality is impeccable. The guitar is simply SUPREMELY badass, if you are on the fence about Prince, do yourself a favor and dive into this one because no matter what your bias might be about the man, you can’t deny the power and finesse that this music demonstrates. Just a wonderful testament to how brilliant and masterful Prince was on stage.
