Prince and the Revolution Live 3LP Box Set

James Brown had the Apollo.

Jimi Hendrix had Monterey Pop.

And Prince had Syracuse, New York's Carrier Dome - the Purple Rain Tour performance that was beamed to millions live via satellite and captured for posterity in the Grammy Award-nominated concert film Prince and the Revolution: Live, and has since gone down in history as one of the most iconic live recordings in pop and rock history.

For the first time, this powerful performance by Prince and the Revolution has been entirely remixed from the original 2" multitrack master reels by engineer Chris James and remastered by Bernie Grundman.

Prince and the Revolution: Live is available on 3 black LPs with a 16-page book with never-before-seen photos of the Purple Rain Tour and new liner notes.

...[T]he performance captured on Prince & the Revolution: Live is phenomenal, a gig that captures a band at its peak who know they're being filmed for posterity. The group is comfortable enough to stretch, vamp, and jam, and they'll even throw in such flair as jazzy accents on the chorus to 'Delirious.' Nevertheless, this performance isn't distinguished by detours, it's defined by its precision. Prince decided to close the book on his Purple Rain era with this March 1985 concert, filming it for home video and broadcast in Europe. Knowing this represented a farewell to this phase, Prince pushed the Revolution to deliver a focused, kinetic set...The result is perhaps the best recorded document of Prince & the Revolution in full flight: they sound invincible here.
