Movie Reviews of Prince - Live at the Aladdin Las Vegas
Movie Review: Great performances, disappointing sound/video production
Summary: 2 Stars
Prince is in fine form here. . . but, unfortunately, he's done a disservice by the "director" and producer of this video. I've gotten spoiled, I guess, by more-recent HD-quality widescreen concerts with 5.1 sound. This is something different. The image is often fuzzy, and the sound at times actually feels *mono*. This concert is from only 5 or 6 years ago; they could have done better. Add in the eclectic song selection (of the video producer, not Prince -- who apparently played much more material than is represented here), the "artsy" (and completely unnecessary) filler between songs, and the lackluster camera work (which often focuses on someone other than Prince, even when he's playing a killer guitar solo), and you have a video that is better than nothing at all but probably not appealing enough to encourage multiple viewings.
Summary of Prince - Live at the Aladdin Las Vegas
Studio: Uni Dist Corp (music) Release Date: 10/03/2006Given the sheer volume and varying quality of his recorded output, not to mention his weird behavior, it's easy to overlook the fact that Prince is one of the great talents of the last quarter century--a fact underlined in earnest by this galvanizing performance. The guy has always had a preternatural ability to channel R&B and rock legends like Sly Stone, Jimi Hendrix, and James Brown (cf. this performance's amazing "Money Don't Matter 2 Night/The Work"); now he's added more sophisticated flavors to the mix as well, ranging from George Benson to Steely Dan and Weather Report, and all without sacrificing his own voice. Add to that covers of the Ohio Players' "Love Rollercoaster" and Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" (really), all played by Prince and his smokin', skin tight band, and what you get is one of the best shows of 2002, or any other year. Extraordinary. --Sam Graham
