| Description | THE COMPLETE RIO DE JANEIRO PERFORMANCE FROM 1991 Prince and his band were invited to play two dates as part of Rock In Rio 2, the second edition of the Brazilian-based music festival, the largest in the world. The recording featured here comes from Prince''s first appearance at the event, when he headlined proceedings on Friday 18th January. The result, presented here across over two discs, is perhaps one of the finest shows in musical history. With the crowd in the palm of his hand throughout, Prince put on a quite superlative performance, as thrilling as ever, and featured such legendary tracks as ''Purple Rain'', ''Kiss'', ''Nothing Compares 2 U'' and a staggering 28 minutes medley of ''Baby I''m A Star''. Surprisingly given the man''s stature, he allows his co-vocalist Rosie Gaines to take lead duties on a couple of Aretha Franklin covers. Captured here in the highest available quality, the entire performance remains a poignant reminder of what an immense talent the world has lost. |
