Prince - Purple Rain First Performance - 1983 from Anthony Citrano on Vimeo.

This (very low quality) 1983 video of Prince performing Purple Rain was circulating just after his death, but the A/V was annoyingly out of sync. I tried to line it up a little better so we can all appreciate him.

The most important thing about this video underscores the level of his talent. You are seeing the FIRST TIME he performed the song live – and the result was so fantastic that it was the version they edited and used for the album the following year ('84).

The word "genius" is so overused these days, but he's a person it absolutely applied to. This is a guy who, when recording most of his songs, played each and every instrument HIMSELF.

The subtitles apparently were put in by a former member of Prince's team to provide some historical background. They're a bit annoying, but well worth tolerating.

ARTIST STATEMENT: "The social and the mirror is so obvious, being and rediscovering the omnipresent objection of the recovered tendency to the exteriority by a hard, fast object in exteriority. (Re)gaining in self is being personal on temperature differences. Although some aspects of the recovering in exteriority are delineated to a loss of personal autonomy and valorization into pieces." – Fly Pan Am

ARTIST STATEMENT: "An étude on the sculpturality of resilience. Timbres are squeezed together in a small suction filled compression chamber to produce a warped temporal mould, highlighting the role of pressure as a shaping element. Zooming out to see larger circumstantial compression chambers forming curves in the broader structures of social organization. Across the various permutations of scale, resilience is an engraving in time." – T. Gowdy

CREDITS: Bass saxophone performed by Jason Sharp Recorded at the Gates of Heaven - Madison, Wisconsin

Engineered by Vid Cousins Edited by Vid Cousins and Jason Sharp Mixed and mastered by Jesse Zubot

Video by Guillaume Vallée

ARTIST STATEMENT: "This recording captures a solo bass saxophone performance in the Gates of Heaven, a small synagogue in Madison, Wisconsin. After an exhaustive recording process elsewhere I visited the synagogue en route to the airport to quickly record a solo piece. The engineer and I had only a couple of hours to capture something before catching our flight home to Montreal. Microphones were set up at varying distances throughout the synagogue and I improvised a solo piece using the acoustics of the space. We had just enough time to record what became an 18 minute multi-tracked piece. Every layer was a first take and a response to the previous. It began to rain heavily towards the end of our session audibly rattling the synagogue, we tore down the mics, and hurried to the airport. Taking this fleeting moment for myself to play in this beautiful resonant space was both nourishing and revitalizing. I returned to this recording when the pandemic hit in mid-march as a way to focus my attention on something positive and future driven. Listening back to this acoustic document during this unprecedented time I once again felt the support this space had provided and was reminded of the fragility that improvised music can often reveal and the strength it can restore." – Jason Sharp

"I’ve been thinking so much about mourning lately. About how we are all in it now, one way or another. About how so many of us don’t have any way to ‘actively’ participate in mourning, outside of our own individual internal pain. This has been a deeply important element of performance to me – the desire to create a place for a shared moment of reflection, alone and free with one’s thoughts while simultaneously being surrounded by people who may be feeling something same.

Of course I miss this with my whole heart. 

I wish for us to find new ways to mourn together – to share some of this commonality with each other. I believe being true to these feelings can bring a renewed energy to carry on...

Since I was a kid, Jewish music has represented a kind of unspecified mourning to me. Engendering a profound sense of sadness, death, and a deep connection to renewal, to this day it’s the music I feel the deepest affinity with. I’ve been involved in Jewish music projects before – in particular Black Ox Orkestar, which remains very close to my heart – but this is the first time I am releasing something alone from that place. I guess it’s time.

I have been an admirer, collaborator, and friend of the filmmaker Jem Cohen for near two decades now; that he agreed to come up with some images for this piece of music is a dream come true. Beyond their quiet beauty, I’ve always found Jem’s images raise a sense of mournfulness, have so much sadness and/but love for the world at their heart. I walk away from watching Jem’s work with eyes opened anew, heavy heart but dreaming...I hope a nine-minute glimpse of a world through his gentle eyes will leave you in some similar place." – Jessica Moss

"AN EMPTY ROAD AND A STRAND OF TREES AND JUST A LITTLE MORE TIME TO SPEND WITH THEE

O MY DEAR MY DEAR GENOCIDE IS ALWAYS NEAR EACH DAY IS LIKE A YEAR AND I DON’T KNOW IF WE’LL SEE THE MORNING

PILLARS OF FIRE AT THE COLD MIST OF DAWN SEARCHLIGHTS AND MIDNIGHT TRIALS AT THE RISING MISTS OF DAWN THEY LEAD US TO WATER JUST TO WATCH US DROWN O BABY IT HAS TO FALL

PALE HORSE IS HUNGRY AND BELLOWING FIRE ONWARD AND AWFUL WITH EMPTY BLUE EYES WHILE SLOWLY WE CRAWL AND SLOWLY WE RISE WE JUST COULD’VE MADE IT BUT WE RAN OUT OF TIME O BABY IT HAS TO FALL

AN EMPTY ROAD AND A STRAND OF TREES AND JUST A LITTLE MORE TIME TO SPEND WITH THEE O BABY IT HAS TO FALL

ACROSS THE GOLDEN ROAD THE FOREST EXHALES LIKE TRUMPETS IN MUD THE SUN IS INDIFFERENT AND THE TREES DON'T GIVE A FUCK

WE'RE HANGING 'NEATH TWILIGHT IN A STATE NEAR TO GRACE EVERY STAR IN THE SKY EVERY STAR IN THE SKY EVERY STAR IN THE SKY EVERY STAR HANGING ‘NEATH TWILIGHT IN A STATE NEAR TO GRACE EVERY STAR IN THE SKY EVERY STAR IN THE SKY EVERY STAR IN THE SKY EVERY STAR EVERY LIGHT MUST GO OUT EVERY LIGHT MUST GO OUT EVERY LIGHT MUST GO OUT BUT NOT FOREVER

SWING LIKE AXES CHILDREN SWING LIKE AXES CHILDREN SWING LIKE LIGHTNING’S FALL THE LIGHT GOES OUT AND THE LIGHT GOES OUT AND THE LIGHT GOES OUT BUT NOT FOREVER

IT’S GONNA TAKE A LOT OF SWINGING TO GET OUT OF THIS FUCKING HOLE BABY, POINT IN ANY DIRECTION AND THAT’S WHERE WE’LL GO

THE DEVIL LOOSED HIS BURNING SHIPS ACROSS THOSE GLOWING SHORES AND THREW ACROSS THE WATER 1,000,000 CONQUISTADORS WHILE THEIR REGAL GOD SLEPT IN HIS NEST HID BEHIND GOLDEN CLOUDS HE MUTTERED TO HIMSELF AND HE DID NOT RAISE A HAND WHILE HIS EMPIRE GREW UPON BURNING FLOWERS ABOVE THAT BURNING LAND WE ARE THEIR BURNING FLOWERS THIS IS OUR BURNING LAND

THE EXECUTIONER AND THE EXECUTIONER’S FILTHY CHILDREN THE EXECUTIONER AND THE EXECUTIONER’S FILTHY CHILDREN RAISED IN THE LAND OF MILK AND DEAD HONEYBEES FED ON COLONIAL ENTITLEMENTS AND AR-15’S A FUNCTIONING DEATHKAMP NEEDS A LOT OF POLICE A FUNCTIONING DEATHKAMP NEEDS A LOT OF POLICE

WHAT VALUE IS A STATE LIKE THIS A FOOL’S WEIGHT PRESSED UPON OUR NECKS WHAT VALUE IS A STATE LIKE THIS THAT WATCHES US DIE AND DOES NOT ASSIST THAT BANKS ON OUR DEATHS NO MATTER THE PRICE JUST TO DELAY THEIR OWN SLOW DEMISE

SO WALK ME TO THE EDGE AND BACK AGAIN TELL ME EVERYTHING’S ALRIGHT THRU ENDLESS DAYS AND THE MERCY OF NIGHT THRU SIDEWAYS RAIN AND HARD SHARP SNOW HOLD ME TIGHT AND DON’T LET GO

AND I WILL DRIVE A TRUCK I WILL DRIVE A TRUCK INTO AND I WILL DRIVE A TRUCK I WILL DRIVE A TRUCK INTO INTO THEIR GLASS ATRIUM WITH BLOOD ON MY CHEEK AND A SHIT-EATING GRIN WITH GLASS IN MY HAIR AND THE ENGINE BURNING I'LL READ OUR DEMANDS AND I'LL TELL 'EM WHO SENT ME AND I WILL DRIVE A TRUCK I WILL DRIVE A TRUCK INTO

FREE IS FREE FREE SHOULD MEAN FREE FREE SHOULD BE FREE FREE MEANS FREE

THE BURNING WORD THE BURNING WORLD

LOVE."

Markus Floats | "Karl Marx. Capital Volume 1. Chapter 33: The Modern Theory Of Colonisation [Abridged]"

"I’m not especially interested in writing lyrics but I recognize that music acts as a podium for the voice, and I try to respect that. In my live performances I use pre-recorded texts (e.g: The Negro Speaks of Rivers by Langston Hughes, an interview with bell hooks, a speech by Toni Morrison etc…) in lieu of lyrics. My objective in using these texts is to spark an interest in the listener. I want you to have questions about what you’ve heard and I want you to seek out more information. At the very least, I want some of those words to find their way into your subconscious to resurface years from now as a random thought on a lazy morning. All this to say, I hope this song makes you want to read Marx." – Markus Floats
