I always liked Prince, but never realized or understood how talented and what an amazing guitar player and song writer he really was. He was an incredible musician.
good lord ahmighty that man could shake the foundations. consummate musician/performer/poet/visionary/could rock a house down!!! RIP my man. you are sorely missed.😎
Give him any song and he’ll make it his own. No one improvises like Prince. His creativity and ingenuity is out of this world, no one can touch him. Everyone wants to play with him, he elevates everyone to another level. Total master class.
I was a young girl when Prince became popular. He was always one of my favorite musicians. It is hard to watch his performances, because like a lot of people, I miss him... But dang was such a talented artist.. Hail Prince!!
Absolute mastery. The showmanship of James Brown, the shredding of Hendrix, the funkaliciousness of Bootsy, plus he was his own individual thing too. Gone too soon ♡
We the world miss you Prince. Back in the day, we all knew he was from another world and way ahead of his time! A true Genius, that ya just couldn’t put your finger on it( way before internet) but YA we all Rock & Roll guitar players fully groves on his stuff, he had Hotties & wicked guitar, kind of strange But 1,000% original & No Rules of the game & on the edge! but his guitar playing was under appreciated, buy all the rest lyrics & ??Flash & dancing club stuff, Definitely had the Funk& never forget how it would be Fun - pump ya up! …ooh so sad, on many levels. He may have been in shadow of MJ, but to be honest, Sad but true, some/ many did not feel a thing sad when M Jackson was Gone) But Prince ! We all were blown away and knew we experienced someone the world may never see again of equal. R.I.P. our beloved Friend, your spirit in music has & will inspire untold souls.
Prince was genius about putting amazing talents around him. He himself could play 5 instruments. In my opinion he is in the top 3 greatest guitar player.
He didn't just play guitar ... here's a list of instruments he could play: Acoustic guitar Electric guitar Bass Fuzz Bass Singing Bass Acoustic Piano Electric Piano Poly-moog Mini-moog Arp Pro Oloist Arp String Ensemble Oberheim four-voice Drums Water drums Synth drums Clavinet Bongos Slapsticks Finger Cymbals Congas Orchestral bells Wind chimes Brush trap Woodblocks Finger snaps Tree bell Handclaps (According to the British farout magazine)
I don't care if he called himself Prince, artist formerly known as, a sign, or shit bag kitty fuck...that man was as talented a performer who ever lived!
Those shoes (combined with his James Brown -like moves) caused his hip trouble, then he wouldn’t get replacement surgery because of his religion, and so he became reliant on painkillers, which is what ultimately killed him. Vanity cost him his life. I truly thought he was smarter than that. So sad.
Have you ever asked yourself why the words “play that funky music WHITE boy” are allowed in is this song, when no record company would ever allow the lyrics “play that funky music BLACK boy” in a song? 🤔 🤔 🤔
