Back on Halloween, saxophonist Karl Denson rounded up Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe and special guest vocalist Ziek McCarter of Con Brio for a tribute to Prince at Brooklyn Bowl in NYC. KDTU and Ziek wound up rolling through all of The Purple One’s severely underrated Dirty Mind LP for the October 31st performance and now professionally-shot video of the set has been shared on YouTube by Nugs.net.
The video below starts with KDTU and McCarter performing each and every song off Dirty Mind including the title track, “Uptown,” “Head” and “Partyup.” Following a brief encore break, the ensemble returns to play “I Wanna Be Your Lover” from Prince’s 1979 self-titled LP as well as “Soul Glo” from the 1988 film Coming To America. Denson was featured in the Eddie Murphy movie as a member of the fictional group Sexual Chocolate.
