Rick James/Jamaica 1982

Prince’s early rival was Rick James. However, Rick James’s sound board live at this peak in 1982 is in a sense more than Prince’s live at this time. Prince played on the opening act for Rick James in 1980, but Prince too, but it was Rick James who had a big hit, and in 1982 Prince began to see Rick James as his rival. It’s from when I was. In a symbolic incident, it was also during this period that Prince stole Rick James’ girlfriend Vanity. Released the soundboard live from that time! It’s clear that Prince adopted Rick James’s live style (Rick James was furious that Prince would steal his girlfriend and even his music), and even Prince would drool over the early songs of Mary Jane, You And I. It’s a masterpiece that you should have thought of. Give It To Me Baby was covered by Prince after Rick James’s death, and the version by Rick James is amazing. Rick James, a man who was already familiar with Prince’s funkness, delivers a superb soundboard live performance, a must-have for funk lovers!
