So much energy & looked like they were all having fun! He's always surrounded himself w/the best bands-he knows so many instruments so he picked 2 his own standards! Sheila E has always been amazing-luv her but u can hear how much better he is on the drums! Mastery of musicianship-a true genius! Ty!
Prince played a series of concerts in Europe which were filmed for the SIGN O THE TIMES movie. However, most of the footage was grainy and unsuitable for a motion picture release. So he recreated the concert footage at Paisly Park studios and filmed it there, basically lip-syncing to the audio recordings from the tour. Only a few minutes (probably crowd shots) of actual film shot in Holland and elsewhere are in the final product.
This is quite a performance. The music is great and some of those dance maneuvers he did in the beginning were very impressive. Entertaining on many levels.
amazing live performance! wishing 4 once,to see this on stage;am sold,gotta love these''funky'' moves//beat and horns; this can go on and on:-thanks for sharing!!
Poor Boni Boyer! Her heart couldn't take being on stage with Prince all the time giving out this much energy. Sheila E. had a lung blowout because of the constant non-stop energy of Prince's concerts. The Lovesexy tour was a killer for both of them! Talk about giving your all!
"AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A MUFFIN, WE GOTTA A LOT OF BUTTER TO GO!" IF YOUR BODY GETS TIRED, KEEP DANCIN' CAUSE YOU OUTTA & KEEP THE BLOOD FLOWIN' DOWN TO YOUR FEET, BROTHER BROOKS BE AROUND IN A MINUTE WITH BUCKET FILLED IN IT, SQUIRREL MEAT!" Where does Prince come up with his lyrics?!
what a master from loud big jazz funk band to minimalism sound..

Does anyone know if this concert is on DVD? I remember about 7 years ago the entire concert aired either or Cinemax or Showtime.

Catch 6:08, the bassist has his bass flipped and if you listen he doesn't miss a beat. Solid.

This is a real live sound recording. Prince choose to replay all in playback to make the whole film.
Can look strange i admit. But they really played it.
I was in the Paris concert in 87. Waaaawwwwwaaaawwwawww !!! was real man!!!!

@lollito84 I don't understand your comment. Are you saying that all the instruments were overdubbed in studio?

@SimonFunkel
No overdubbs, they just replay the concert in playback. But soundtrack was originally recorded live, of course.
