I just got home from the JT concert in Lexington, KY. Before the show my son said “No way he does Purple Rain.” Well, lo and behold, he sang and played a couple of verses of Purple Rain as a lead-in to Shower the People. I’ve seen James over a dozen times since first seeing him in 1971 and this was by far the biggest surprise of any show I’ve attended. Is it the ultimate live rarity? Maybe. Just sorry I didn’t at least record it on my phone! Guess I’ll check Youtube tomorrow morning!
Best wishes to all.

That’s really cool. He mentioned Prince before he broke into You’ve Got A Friend when he was in Chattanooga, but no “Purple Rain”.

I’d love to hear that as well.

There was a purple light shining on the curtain when James talked about Prince in Chattanooga,and the woman sitting next to me asked me if I thought that was because of Prince. Apparently so,judging by this tribute. There is a reason why some become famous. James is living proof.He has a heart of GOLD.
