Prince's precious early live performance footage, a 75-minute Minnesota Dance Theater benefit concert held on First Avenue in his hometown of Minneapolis on August 3, 1983, has been released directly on Blu-ray in HD quality and professionally shot. Taking advantage of the large capacity of Blu-ray, the video and sound in HD:TV quality, as is, has been upconverted from the SD quality of the master to HD, and the latest remastering has been added to correct the image quality and improve the sound quality, allowing you to watch it in the best quality possible. And on this day, six songs from the unreleased "Purple Rain" were already performed live: "Let's Go Crazy," "Computer Blue," "Electric Intercourse," "Die for You," "Baby I'm a Star," and "Purple Rain." The live recordings of this day were used as basic tracks for the album, and "Purple Rain" in particular has some different lyrics, so be sure to check it out. It was also the debut live performance of Wendy, the female guitarist of the future Revolution, and she showed solid playing, which is hard to believe she had no professional experience before. In any case, this is a must-have collector's edition for fans, recreating the amazing performance that marked the start of Prince's career in his prime. 01. Let's Go Crazy 02. When You Were Mine 03.
