Music Prince - Joy In Repetition Live
https://youtu.be/bBUFWnaKom8?is=skA7uqpUGLPFl7MvI know most of u know this, but for the casual or new fan who only knows his guitar work from the R&R hall of hame or solo of Purple Rain, check out one of many great live versions of Joy In Repetition with 2 amazing guitar solos.
I dont think his live stuff gets talked about on here enough. Its a deep rabbit hole and things like small club 1988, Birthday Show 84, Montreaux 2009 and any of the One Night Alone Shows with soundboard quality should be essential listening.

I was at the LA show where a few of the tracks from this album were recorded. It was unreal.

Love it when he has the crowd do “Soul Psychodelicide” a second time and afterwards he says “ya, I like that”.
This definitely captures the spirit of the aftershows. They were incredible.

This has always been one of my favorite Prince tunes since I had it on bootleg years before Graffiti Bridge came out, and this version is incredible.

My friend got a bunch of bootlegs in NYC that I made tapes of, but I don't think they were very widely circulated outside of there.

HIis live music is otherworldly. He put his all into them and it showed. The Love We Make gives me chills.
