Start your morning off right with this extremely rare footage of Prince recording "Purple Rain" live during a benefit concert in Minnesota at First Avenue back in 1983. According to the clip, they recorded it live for the album from this performance. They cut parts and then went back and overdubbed for the final. Prince's performance in Minnesota that night also marked the debut of his guitar player, Wendy Melvoin. It's an absolute must-watch for any and all Prince fans.
