An excellent recording of the 3rd show from the One Nite Alone US tour. The
recording itself is extremely clear and clean with minimal audience noise. There
are a few small moments during the show where a conversation takes place or a
few comments made are audible, but they are very minimal and barely worthy of
mention. My one observation is that during the closing 'Anna Stesia' the
recording becomes noticeably thinner than the rest of the show. It picks up
again after a moment or two, but is certainly audibly different. The show itself
is short of the spectacular, although still a great One Nite Alone show. The
equipment Prince uses to alter his vocals during the opening 'The Rainbow
Children' appears to malfunction and he has to drop certain parts from the show
- during 'Family Name' and 'Anna Stesia' most obviously. 'The Everlasting Now'
is performed in it's entirety which includes the "See this girl in the make
believe world" verse, which was dropped soon after. The piano medley includes a
short instrumental take on 'Under The Cherry Moon' along with the less usual
choice of 'One Nite Alone'. There are more passionate and better shows
circulating but this is a nice example of a very early show from the tour. The
packaging is a little disappointing by Sabotage's standards.
