HONEYHUSH PRESENTS PRINCERADIO-1987 NYE PAISLEY PARK SHOW W/ICONIC MILES DAVIS

`EVERY LAST WEDNESDAY OF THE MONTH HONEYHUSH PRESENTS #PRINCERADIO....  As far as Prince bootlegs go, 1987 is a stellar year.  Starting with the Sign O The Times warm up show at First Ave, through the tour itself, the excellent after shows of Le New Morning, Park café and Fineline café, there is a good variety of shows available and some of them are of outstanding quality. The year of 1987 is capped off with one more legendry boot, the New Year’s Paisley Park show, where the iconic Miles Davis joins Prince and the band onstage. Prince had experimented with jazz the previous two years, and one feels that having Miles on stage with him meant a lot to him and his art.  Miles doesn’t feature through the whole show, and the show itself isn’t as jazz infused as some of the other shows that year, but it’s still great to see his interaction with Prince and the band onstage. The show is an interesting mix, there is some standard renditions as we had heard throughout the tour, but things get more interesting near the end as the band indulge in a long jam that incorporates all sorts of songs.  The recording is missing the first few songs which is unfortunate, but what we do get more than makes up for it.
