Filmed in December 1999 at Paisley Park Studios, and premiering as a pay-per-view special via In Demand on December 31, 1999, the film was produced as a companion to his recently released album Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic. The concert featured performances of songs from the album, other Prince hits (including a ceremonial "retirement" of "1999"), as well as covers of other songs. Special guests included former band associates, Rosie Gaines and Morris Day, funk legends Maceo Parker and members of The Family Stone such as bass player Larry Graham, as well as funk-rock performer Lenny Kravitz. In June 2019, in honor of what would have been Prince's 60th birthday, the film was picked up for broadcast by PBS.[1][2][3]
