Prince and the Revolution: Live

Prince and the Revolution: Live cover art

Originally broadcast globally as a television special in 1985 from Syracuse, New York, this audio release perfectly captures the sheer spectacle and musical dominance of the 'Purple Rain' tour. Prince commands his remarkably versatile backing band through extended, theatrical arrangements of hits that seamlessly blend James Brown-style funk discipline with Hendrix-indebted guitar heroics. It is an enduring document of an icon at his absolute commercial and artistic peak.
