Prince/FL,USA 1985 & SC Upgrade

The final performance of the 1985 “Purple Rain Tour” is a 2CD title that has been remastered from the soundboard sound source, including the sound check. The album and movie “Purple Rain” became a huge hit, and the 1985 tour was at its peak at the time. The final performance in Miami on April 7th was recorded in the highest quality ever with the latest digital remastering. First of all, while it has been known as the standard line sound source of this tour in the past, there were some cuts and skips in the last song “Purple Rain” due to the master, but here it has been perfectly corrected by professional mastering, and the sound quality is also flawless, with a realistic and powerful sound, condensing the overwhelming performance of the peak of the revolution era. The opening act, Sheila E., is also well recorded, and Prince also participates in “Erotic City”, and the main Prince live performance is a performance that breaks through all at once, from the dramatic opening to the overly emotional “Purple Rain” at the end of the encore. In any case, it is an uncompromising invasion of the realm of pop, a stylish experimental work, and a set of almost all the songs from the album “Purple Rain” that shocked the music scene at the time, as well as his representative songs up to “1999”. Furthermore, disc:3 also includes a sound check that was held on the same day, recorded in master quality and on a soundboard. This is a completely different set list from the main live performance that day, and includes “Strange Relationship”, which will later be included in “Sign of the Times”, the unreleased number “High Fashion”, and even “Body Heat”, which blew away the original JB, showing Prince’s relentless attitude of repeating experimental trials from this time onwards, not just a sound check. Although the recordings have been distributed in various forms up until now, this collector’s edition includes a rare sound check and is the definitive version. DISC 1 : (Sheila E) 01.
