By A Pop Life (Erwin Barendregt) in Concert, Prince
5/5: The day after the disappointing opening show Prince had to make things right and he delivered: opening with Joy In Repetition followed by The Love We Make. A marvellous experience!
3/5: This concert was the first of three NSJ shows and was marred by real awful, even ugly, sound and an uninspired setlist.
4/5: Extremely good concert. Before the 'regular' set Prince played quite a lot of songs with all the house lights still on. A party concert.
5/5: The regular setlist was thrown out the window and the first song played was an extremely funky Controversy. One of the most special Prince evenings of my life!
Prince, Selah Sue
4/5: Nice show, that took some time to get into full swing. The last encore in particular was great.
Graham Central Station, Mint Condition, Prince
5/5: Aftershow by Prince that ended strangely, but contained a number of gems, like the opening jam and an exquisite extremely funky I Know You Got Soul.
4/5: A number of great surprises (Don't Play Me and The Ride) at the soundcheck and the concert. Very good.
5/5: Top concert and top soundcheck. Definite highlight of this tour (for me). One of the most special concert experiences of my life!
Very impressive show with an even more impressive band!
The Artist, 12/28/1998
5/5: This show clearly showed Prince felt 'something' towards his Belgian audience. He was up for it and it showed.
Graham Central Station, Prince
3½/5: Good show in an environment where concerts shouldn't be organized.
4½/5: Good inspired show by Prince in a very atmospheric Zürich.

Emancipation? No, thank u!

1996: Emancipation has just been released. I post this review in newsgroup alt.music.prince. Nice to re-read this after all those years!

5/5: Aftershow. The only time I bought tickets on the black markets (5 times the original ticket price). Top night, during which Prince's spirits were genuinely lifted by the audience.
5/5: Aftershow. Never before did I stand so close to the stage at Paradiso. Funky, funky, funky, this show was funky.
