Prince’s ‘Prince and the Revolution: Live’ concert film is now available to stream for the first time ever

The 1985 concert film has been remastered for this new audio edition

The companion live album to Prince‘s 1985 concert film Prince and the Revolution: Live has finally been released on major streaming platforms.

Prince and his backing band were captured on film performing on March 30, 1985 at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse, New York during the ‘Purple Rain’ tour. The film marked the first time that Prince had officially released live concert footage as both a television broadcast and home video, while a subsequent DVD release followed in 2017.

Today’s release (May 15) of the audio version of Prince and the Revolution: Live marks the first time that it has been made available to listen to on major streaming and download platforms. The audio has been remastered by the late artist’s longtime mastering engineer Bernie Grundman, and you can hear it below.
