Absolute Genius

Sunny was his idol the neighborhood bad ass

I definitely liked Rosie’s voice over Bonnie’s. Not that Bonnie couldn’t sing, but just preferred Rosie as I felt Bonnie was a bit of a screamer too much for me.

Nice !

Prince was no drug addict 🙏🏾🥀💜🕊️🕊️

Never tire of Prince stories

Dez you and "Tito Jackson" look like you could be related. You fit right in with Prince's band, Keep Shining Bright!!💎🌈💥👁️👁️🎇🌹💕💖

His Purple Rain Era put a certain magic into my youth that nothing else did in his songs. They all are great. But when I i listen to Purple Rain I'm 17 again. I feel it.

Wow! In A World Of Artificial Intelligence, It's Nice To Hear Gifted Musicians Talk Shop! The Musician, The Last Of Their Kind. Hip Hop Thuglife Culture Is The Worst Thing That Ever Happened. When It Was Just Fun Music,Cool. But When It Became A "Culture", All Cultural Hell Broke Loose. Especially For American Black Kids. When They Took Instruments Out Of The Schools,It Was Ovee For The Creation Of "The Black Musician"

I love when Ronnie Baker Brooks described Prince and The Time as being brothers. Beautiful. Another great interview by Joe Kelly.

Praying ill get to go see ronnie in berwyn. Ive been scraping money together as soon as i heard about the new album.

I am so glad to see Mr. Duhe doing well. Love his music ❤❤.

Love this story and the song, it hits my heart every time!🫡

What’s an SSL?

Brothers Prince didn't t fail he believes in Jehovah

ALWAYS GOOD TO SEE CHRIS JASPER , I HAVE ALL OF THE OLD ISLEY BROTHER ALBUMS , HE IS BEYOND BRILLIANT !!!!!

live in new orleans with maze you were at your finest

I peeped an old school Shure Vocalmaster P.A. mixer in one of the photos. Folks used those way back in the day in the 60's and 70's. That picture had to be taken years before he became famous and he was probably still in high school. God Bless his soul..🙏🏾🎼🙏🏾

I hope to see Ronnie and the band in South Bend,IN again! if not we are 1h and 15 from Chi-town

@Chicago Bluesman 🎶 Very good and insightful interview with Joe Kelley!

This is Prince

My mife and I are big Prince fans. Collected ALL of his albums down thru the years and attended many of his concerts. During one of his hosted after parties my wife approached him and chatted for a few minutes. Now I have always been one to give famous celebrities their space. They yearn for that sometimes. So I was content to let her talk with him and fill me in afterward. However she gestured towards me to come meet him. Due to a huge security guard giving me the evil eye, I hesitated, looked directly at Prince in his eyes, shook my head no, and pointed towards that menacing security guard. So Prince, having acknowledged that gestured for me to walk all the way to a far side of the ballroom to meet them. When I got there, he and my wife met me there and we had a nice casual conversation between the 3 of us for about 10 minutes. I respectfully asked to meet some of his band members including Larry Graham. He told us to stay there and not move. He walked away a few steps and- again- told us not to move. Within a few minutes he walks back with Larry Graham, his wife, his daughter, Rosey Gains, and several other members of New Power Generation. We all talked for about 15 minutes. He was so respectful and accomodating. Never did we fawn over him but treated him with respect as we would anyone else. We sensed that he truly appreciated it.

The G.O.A.T, Uncle Rob! 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🪕

He was a multi instrument talented musician. Self taught. Very creative and very intelligent I'm sure. Very true to himself. No surprise he creatively found ways to not be copied. 🌟🌟🌟

Prince is so genuine. I got a 1 in a million chance to chat with him for about an hour. He was so down the earth. It happened in Atlanta during the NPGMUSICCLUB days at a sound check. He didn't have to chat with me but he did. I will never forget that day.

Je t’aime forever …

Controversy, 1999, Dirty Mind, Little Red Corvette, Darling Nikki, Purple Rain, Raspberry Beret, When Doves Cry, Let's go Crazy, Kiss, Girls and Boys, Mountains, I could never take the place..etc. etc. They all played a part in my youth but a few months after his death I heard a song of his that he recorded in the last years of his life when I had long since stopped listening to him and it broke me. After the Batdance album, I gave up on Prince, and then after his death, I started listening to his more recent recordings that I had missed almost 3 decades' worth of music. The song played from a recording I got from an old friend of mine. He transferred a recording of it onto a USB stick for me, and I was playing it as I drove to work. I felt like Prince was with me when I heard it. I felt his song touch my soul, and it seemed to say it's ok. I'm home, and you will be too in time, don't worry! The song? It was "Way Back Home." To this day, I still tear up with both sadness and joy. I want it played at my funeral as I believe he wrote it with foreknowledge of his death. It's almost an acceptance and realisation of his own mortality and connection to everything. He wrote it for himself and for us all. It is both his story and our story. It's beautiful. RIP Prince and I'll see you on the other side ❤

Prince was one of a kind.

He was a humbly unique person

Is this why i can't figure out the layers of Computer Blue? lol

My Uncle turned me on to Maze 50 yrs ago. I grew up listening to them constantly. Not only his smooth silky voice but the bass player. One quick quick response besides live in New Orleans how did you tune the four on Time Is On My Side

Umm...Didn't Chaka Khan cover "I Feel For You ?" and with his blessing ?

He was a multi instrumentalist a one man band and his type of caliber was rare. He among the Minneapolis Genius 1977 album Artist set for a reason further reference alone the For You 1978 liner 🎶 🎵 notes Including the Vocals, Guitar 🎸 effects,Synthesizers in place of horns pianos and Keyboards ,Drums. All that can be ▶️ played by a larger group act that would take alot of managing logistics.

She's the one who said Prince Ike Turnered her.🤔

Encore to the great black prince🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤

I saw him hang out at glam slam West many times, and if you saw him walk casually, his posture was impeccable. He looked taller than he was, and he walked with a purpose. There was a purpose almost every move. Even when he was relaxing one of the restaurant tables with a friend. Around 1986 and 1987 as a teen I was trying to figure out what he was about, and I realized and discovered qualities of what made him not only interesting but great was his pursuit of individuality. And later on I realize that in order to achieve that individualism you need a very strong dose of confidence. A self-love or self caring for self-esteem, loving, and wanting the best for yourself and carrying yourself with a sense of purpose and physically manifesting that with the way you walk the way you stand. In the song ‘walk, don’t walk’ he lays it all out for you and I thought yes that’s it !

I’ve seen some of Bryan’s progression thru his website. He has become a true Prince friend. And I respect him for opening to this journey

I thought that was Bootsie baba

Glad to hear Robin is still alive and well . Got to get his music!!!!
