Prince: Montreux Like Jazz (2009)

concert

A two-DVD set of Prince at the 2009 Montreux Jazz Festival that serves as a reminder for those that forgot, Prince is still one of, if not the, greatest live musician alive. This set captures both of the shows performed on July 18, 2009 in a stunning pro-shot video. The quality is good enough for an official release, of which one was talked about and planned before Prince once again dropped the ball on preserving his musical legacy. It's absolutely asinine that this was not released to the world, it's that good. So Prince once again misses out on giving his fans what they want and leaves it to the bootleggers to do it right.

Being a Prince fan can be a frustrating experience. Prince will turn 54 this year and I certainly do not expect him to be the groundbreaking, innovative genius he was through most of the 80's. His studio albums have fallen into the trap most legendary artists find themselves in when they reach this stage of their career. Still capable of putting out some great songs and enjoyable records, but nothing that comes near their former greatness, often times sinking into mediocrity.
