Prince and the Revolution: The Makings Of Rain

This film centers on Prince's benefit concert for the Minnesota Dance Theatre Company, held on August 3, 1983, at First Avenue in Minneapolis. The concert was organized by Loyce Houlton and aimed to raise funds for the financially struggling dance company. Prince's performance is noted for its energy and excitement, marking it as one of his most memorable shows.

The movie features contributions from Prince, Wendy Melvoin, Lisa Coleman, Brown Mark, and Bobby Z, offering a glimpse into the funky essence of the era. The event raised $23,000, highlighting Prince's commitment to the arts and his community. Additionally, the basic tracks of three songs performed that night were later utilized in his iconic album, "Purple Rain." This connection to his music makes it a significant piece for collectors interested in the evolution of his work.
