Jon S. Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Killer!! I'd love to see Prince live. Last time he came to town it seemed like it sold out in 2 seconds... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabs Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Yeah hes pretty awesome... oddly enough I came across this today where he does a nice tasty solo :) (check out Dhani Harrisons there too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlashPerryBurst Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I do like Bill Bailey's (No not Axl Rose, the comedian Bill Bailey) "Hindie Indie" version. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPZjPGepoXM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveinspain Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Saw him live in LA in the 80's... He was amazing but I think he is a much better guitar player now than he was then... Would go see him again in a flash!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfox14 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Where was that clip of Prince playing "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" come from? I don't remember him being at the "Concert For George" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T Bone Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 After watching the top clip, I spotted this one. Check out his playing there, great sound. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZlIL2Fl1Cc&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfox14 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Give it up for Prince. Not only a great guitar player, but he sure can spot talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabs Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Yeah, and for me the Purple Rain solo has gotta be up there with some of the best.. heres him doing a live version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKXDlMNf-So&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryUK Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I've always felt sorry for him. The bulk of people think he's a little wierdo and a second rate MJ. He's a true talent and a great guitarist. A great songwriter and producer too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LT ED Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Dont think theres much to feel sorry for, hes a rock monster of the highest order. A little strange maybe but an eccentric genius non the less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Searcy Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 I agree. There really is nothing to feel sorry about. Prince is a class A, barking mad, nut case to the nth degree. But he's also a badass artist. Most of the truly great artist I've met over the years have been total lunatics. Comes with the neighborhood I think.

michaeljohnr Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 The Prince characters on SNL make me crack up. Prince and Beyonce below. Did anyone else see that skit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabba2203 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yeah hes pretty awesome... oddly enough I came across this today where he does a nice tasty solo :) (check out Dhani Harrisons there too) Yes, I've seen this before and it is killer! I'm not a fan of Prince's standard music, but it his one off stuff like this that that I really like. That solo was pure rock-in-roll with attitude and showmanship and overall it looked like he was having a good time doing it too. He's way more than his pop music.

Thundergod Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yeah, Prince is one of the best musicians ever. I am a big fan of his playing and his composing. Thanks for posting this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaysEpiphone Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Prince is a very good musician and has written some good song's, not my fave act but very good none the less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Natural Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I've always felt sorry for him. The bulk of people think he's a little wierdo and a second rate MJ. He's a true talent and a great guitarist. A great songwriter and producer too. Speaking of comparing Prince and MJ... I heard someone say once that Prince was like "Michael Jackson with a d**k."

Jeff-7 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I still like the original by Radiohead more but Prince did a good job. The best prince impersonation skit IMO is the Dave Chapelle one. "Game, blouses." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
