Description
I was shocked to see the 15-year tour appear on a soundboard. In fact, even audience recordings hadn’t appeared for a while. The sound source that Prince sends out is good, but this leaked soundboard is of such best quality that it would not be strange to release it officially as a live album! This is the first show in Louisville on March 15th. Hannah’s usual MC without recording is also a soundboard (naturally). Wow jumps out immediately after the DAT Intro. It’s the first time I’ve heard it in Prince’s band, and it’s a soundboard. The guitar comes in, but I wonder if it’s Donna. Well, I thought the vocals would naturally be Liv, but it’s not Liv, it’s Prince himself! This is a shock. She sings very loudly and is already moving from the first verse. There, in the chorus, Liv puts in a chorus at a high place so that she can harmonize. A luxurious lineup with the main vocalist as a sub. In the next verse, Prince sings as if he is talking, taking care of his throat, sings a low part in the chorus, and finally shouts like an earthquake. The closing was also considered and ended in a different way from Liv’s version. Then we went straight to Funknroll. The remix of Art Official Age also sounds good, so you can really tell that the guitar phrases are really cool. Then Breakdown. It starts off a little sad, and you might think that his voice is not in good condition, but in the next verse, his voice becomes stronger. At least a male vocal comes in, perhaps Prince’s voice is sampled, or maybe Joshua’s. In the chorus, Liv’s chorus is combined with his own falsetto to power up, and there is a shout, but it is just as ferocious. Pretzelbodylogic is a great version with a raging guitar, and even after it becomes Stratus, it is played for quite a long time and is a festival featuring individual instruments. At the end, an instrumental that samples a voice that I have never heard before, “Hey Hey,” comes in and ends with an explosion sound. It is a long version of 9 minutes and 40 seconds with two songs. And here the drums are slowly beaten, are you ready to go crazy? Prince shouts towards the balcony and Let’s Go Crazy is played slowly. Take Me With U has a rock guitar sound, Prince sings U Got The Look roughly, and in Cool, Prince’s voice is hoarse, but he calls Saida and she takes the lead in Don’t Stop ’til You Get Enough. Then, from a graceful piano intro, it suddenly goes to Something In The Water (Does Not Compute). I wonder if his throat is a little better. The elegant guitar riff reaches my ears comfortably. Prince is singing a little out of place, and there is also a feeling that he is protecting his throat. Another guitar starts a solo while the elegant riff continues to be played. In that case, this solo is definitely Prince, and it is many times better when you listen to it on the soundboard. The guitar is in great shape even in the extremely funky Controversy (he doesn’t always play the same way) with a subtle change in the cutting pattern, and the tension continues in 1999. A talking guitar solo is included in Little Red Corvette. The next song, Nothing Compares 2 U, is sung in a very relaxed style to take care of his throat, and he doesn’t sing, but just recites the lyrics, or gets the audience to sing along. He shouts quite a bit, so he uses that a lot too. Prince MCs that he’s happy to be able to play in Hannah’s hometown. Kiss sings well in falsetto, and gets the audience to sing along as well. And the long-awaited live version of What If is finally shown, and it’s a sudden soundboard! It’s true that his throat is not in good condition, but because of that, he sings in a very relaxed style, which sounds quite different from the studio version. In the chorus, you can hear the female chorus, especially the voice of Ida, which is very refreshing. The fact that it’s not a soulful liv makes this rock song even more rock-like. In the next verse, Ida is probably the one singing. This is probably the first time that he has had the members of 3rdEyeGirl sing. That’s how much Prince had them focus on playing instruments. In the bridge, the female vocals are more prominent, creating a very refreshing atmosphere. Some people may be happy when a woman with a non-soulful voice starts singing like this, as it reminds them of the Revolution era. And Purple Rain is sung in a completely low part to protect her throat, has the audience sing, and features a lot of guitar. This recording is the original from the 14th. The sampler set has a high degree of singing from the audience from When Doves Cry. The cheers are almost off, so it’s a bit disappointing. On the other hand, in Hot Thing, Prince squeezes out his voice to get excited. Prince can’t keep singing all the time, so he tries his best when he has to. Housequake is also a funky play that is dry but has a certain flavor. And Liv sings to add soulfulness, and Hannah’s drum solo is added to make it a gorgeous version. And Sign O’ The Times starts with a Bernie Worrell-like weird keyboard phrase, probably by Prince. And Prince singing with a cool feeling is cool, and a different rhythmic keyboard is added from the beginning. It’s a tight band version with guitar and drums. And The X’s Face plays backing, but doesn’t sing that he’s not ready yet. Alphabet St. is a version with a snappy keyboard, but it ends in 45 seconds, and moves to Forever In My Life. After telling the audience that it’s an upstroke, he plays a long, chopper bass solo that stumbles, and the song ends as soon as it ends. It’s a little over four minutes, but the sampler set isn’t over yet. He starts by repeating the beginning of I Would Die 4 U many times, teasing them, but here too, a thin keyboard phrase is added. Prince sings A Love Bizarre roughly, and he puts in Alphabet St.’s scream of no at a nice timing. After Nasty Girl, there’s only the rhythm, and then a guitar cut that sounds like he’s sticking out his tongue, and then Play That Funky Music is played, and a version featuring guitar without much vocals is shown. After stopping the performance once, only Prince’s cutting is left, and from that cutting, it changes to Thank You. Liv and others sing mainly, but the live ends with a 2 and a half minute outro-like performance. Highlights from the second show are also recorded, and this is also a great soundboard. First, Diamonds & Pearls is a superb play that makes you see the wonderful finger work, and Prince’s voice is low, so it doesn’t seem to be bad. The following The Beautiful Ones is a song that requires a high voice, but the falsetto is quite good and the natural voice is also fine. The piano also puts in unusual phrases and sings in a broken voice. And the vocals are well heard even on the guitar. It’s spectacular to see it flow straight into Plectrumelectrum and rock. It’s certainly nice to be able to listen to these two sets on the soundboard. The second set doesn’t seem to be as bad as I thought it would be. However, the sampler set only did one song, When Doves Cry, and it was a 90-minute stage. The Louisville Palace Show 1 2015.3.15 CD1 1.Hannah Intro 2.DAT Intro 3.Wow 4.Funknroll incl.
