Comment

Quite a fun NPS concert. Brixton Academy is tiny in comparison to the other venues the tour was held in, and the show and atmosphere is all the better for it! Filmed by an audience member from the balcony slap-bang in the center, the view is un-obstructed and (for the most part) steady, with some amazingly cool close-up shots. There are a few moments during the show where the camera is unfocused, or drops down behind the balcony, but they are minimal. There are a few minutes missing during 'Bambi', and the footage cuts off abruptly at the end of 'The Christ'. However what is here is very enjoyable, and it's good to see Prince feeding off the crowd's frenzied reaction. Excellent picture quality, and very good sound quality.

Notes: "Beautiful Strange" bootleg CD. According to the info file in my copy, the venue in which this show took place is actually Cafe de Paris in London, UK. Also, the setlist differs slightly to the one listed on etree.
