Pop star Prince delights 60,000 US fans with a blistering performance at California's Coachella festival.
Organisers of the event had been trying to persuade the 49-year-old to play there since it was founded in 1999.
"You are the coolest place on earth right now!," Prince told fans as he played covers of Radiohead's Creep and the Beatles' Come Together.
Portishead, Jack Johnson and Kraftwerk were also on the 125-strong bill.
Coachella founder Paul Tollet denied reports he had paid Prince $4.8m (£2.4m) to secure the Saturday night performance, which had only been confirmed two weeks before the event.
Dressed in white trousers and a white shirt with a glittery fringe, Prince returned to the stage to play two encores - the first featuring his classic track Purple Rain, the second a frenzied version of Let's Go Crazy.
