The 2004 Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame ceremony included a noteworthy lineup of inductees: Jackson Browne, The Dells, Bob Seger, Traffic, ZZ Top, Prince, and posthumously, George Harrison.
During the ceremony, a musical tribute was paid to the Beatles member who had passed away nearly three years earlier. An all-star band, featuring Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Steve Winwood, and Harrison’s son, Dhani, along with the newly inducted Prince, performed the Beatles' 1968 hit' While My Guitar Gently Weeps' from the White Album.
As the song unfolded and the artists played their respective parts, Prince launched into a monumental guitar solo lasting almost three minutes, during which he effectively turned the other legendary musicians on stage into his own supporting band, outshining even Harrison’ s son. With his induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame earlier that evening, Prince reaffirmed his status as one of the world’ s most influential musicians.
