There was a lot more to him than most will ever know (self included), and while I wasn't initially a big fan of much of his music style, I became appreciative of much of what he wrote for many others and how he maintained his personal and artistic vision. Stood up to the recording industry for artists who came to work their craft at his  studio. And, he did most of it at home in Minnesota.
Truly talented musician and writer. And a true shredder of guitars.
Until we meet again.

I had no idea he could play like this until this was posted on FB in regards to his death.

(his guitar work starts at about the 4:00 min mark)

I've got over 30 Prince songs on my iPod and have enjoyed his music since the mid 80's ... but I like dark humor, too.

So ... * * * WARNING - DARK HUMOR ALERT * * *



Will he be buried in a Little Red Cas-ket?

Given his flamboyancy, wouldn't be all that surprised if they sprung for an actual Corvette.  ;)

Damn!   That man was good.  Anyone know what album that song was on?   His guitar work was amazing!
