New York in April 2002 was probably the longest performance of Prince's ONA tour. A thorough analysis of the 6 hours of outstanding performances, including sound check, main show, after show, and gorgeous guest appearances! Prince's charm is on full display! This set includes 1CD of sound check, 2CD of aftershow, and a DVD of extremely valuable aftershow footage. Sound check first. Prince tells the story of a polite Japanese man who left a tambourine at his seat during his first performance in Japan, but did not take it home. It begins with an unreleased jazz instrumental, and Prince shows off his generous and solid guitar work. And while The Ride, sung by Prince, is a freaky yet serious performance. It's more jazz than blues and features Maceo's horns. At Alphabet St., Prince and the band are finally in full swing, and The Payback's cool funk and Horny Pony-style cutting are featured, but this development is extremely rare and can only be heard here. And Calhourn Square, which is not played in the main show, was played while gabbing that Ho's shouts sounded like Michael Jackson. And the rare Power Fantastic is a beautiful song in which Prince sings elegantly with a perfect performance in the background. Then, the NPG Music Club members got on stage and showed off their guitars, and the band responded, making for a pretty cool jam. Next was Extraordinary, which also appeared after this, with Prince singing seriously and the band playing as well as they should. Joy In Repetition is a pretty rough performance, but I think this quiet version is also interesting in the sense of comparing it with the performance that follows. And the after show. The performance at this time was recorded on the official It Ain't Over, and you can see how wonderful it was, but although the sound is good, it is a partial recording (also see the video) As you can see, the photo used on the It Ain't Over jacket is from this show). Here, we have recorded the first 38 minutes of the audience video taken by the audience at that time, and the complete sound source of the aftershow. First of all, the video is shown from the beginning, but the camera is not stable at first. But it will calm down eventually. Even though it's an after-show, why don't you get angry at Prince for pointing the camera at him like this? It will reach this level. Prince sings while playing Joy In Repetition that Larry Graham is also there. Actually the bass is Larry. In the second half, you can see John Blackwell and Larry getting excited. Prince is wearing a cute hat. Rather than being ecstatic, I was impressed by how calmly he played Habibi without moving his body. It is true that there are places where Princes are not captured completely, but it is still a miracle that they are photographed so closely at the after show. Although the backing of Talkin' Lound And Sayin' Nothing is not that at all, when Prince starts singing that phrase, Maceo and others come in, and although there are JB manners, it transforms into a funky jam that stands out in Prince's style. Prince stops the band, plays a funny phrase by himself, then brings the band back in, and Larry and his friends react, making it even groovier. Please enjoy the professional development of the song, with Maceo called in, Maceo left alone to play, Prince playing the riff, John's drums coming in at the perfect time, and the band getting back on track. Mr. Takumi also prepared various guitars for Prince, and he was also very professional. Prince gives instructions to the band with phrases and fingers while playing, and prepares solos for Renato, Greg, and others, and the camera captures them. For some reason, Candy Dulfer is shown at the beginning of Pass The Peas, but Prince is actually letting Candy play a solo. Eventually, Greg and Odai Maceo also went solo. The audience is blown away, Maceo! While the audience continues to be trumpeted, the camera briefly falters, but then George Clinton is shown entering the stage. He performed an impromptu rap We Do This while shaking his body like a bear. George repeats the It Ain't Over chant, and the audience responds. Prince's guitar explodes. Then Doug E. Fresh took the stage. He also gets the audience excited by chanting the phrase "It Ain't Over." It's only the first half of the aftershow, but even though it's difficult to sneak into the show, it's a miracle that it was filmed at such an enjoyable level. And this time, the black Dance To The Music jam is centered around P-Funk's guitar and vocalist Gary Scheider, and Gary also pops out the vocals of Sly's Music Lover. Then Prince's guitar cutting cuts sharply into Alphabet St. However, the actual backing is a very fresh funk groove. Furthermore, the original Larry of GCS's The Jam introduces the vocalist, Renato as funky, and his freaky phrases are played. The NPG Horns are introduced as a group rather than individually, and the brother, John Blackwell, plays the guitar, saying that he is my baby brother, without mentioning his name, and Prince plays the guitar. And the bass is Larry Graham, and the fuzz-effect bass roars. This area is not included in It Ain't Over. Then there's Questlove on drums and Music Soulchild's Sly's cover of If You Want Me To Stay, and Just Friends (Sunny), a total of 12 minutes in total, followed by Extraordinary, with Prince on vocals, starting with a wonderful jazzy intro. Featuring Candy's saxophone and Renato's thrilling piano, it's certainly a song that only Prince could sing, but the backing is also something that can only be achieved by these members. Alicia Keys, who made her debut by releasing the best-selling R&B album in 2001, was on stage. With the backing of 777-9311, she scats Prince's It style song and creates a great funkness. If he is an extraordinary talent, you will get goosebumps at this moment. Then, she sings How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore, a cover of Prince's song that Alicia covered on her album and became a hit, in a scat-like manner. The piano player must be Prince. There's also a flute, and this is Maceo. Officially approved by Prince, with Prince on the back, it can be said to be a very luxurious version for Alicia. And the jazz version of The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker, which begins thrillingly with an interesting piano phrase, has Maceo's flute solo, and the atmosphere changes from the second half. It seems to be an after show that there are such subtle minor changes. Then Doug E. Fresh's rap and John's wild drumming led to the spectacular Peach. Amazing, even the listener gets tired, wondering if this is the end, but it resumes after being interrupted for a while. The Everlasting Now is not played at the sound check or the main show, making it a wonderful performance to decorate the end of a long day. It's a 10-minute masterpiece that starts with great excitement, everyone comes together as one, and lasts forever.
