    A sound check from 36 years ago is hotter than anything coming out in music today. Incredible.

      Some much will never be, the show in 84, purple rain last song , he hit a pitch so high with the guitar we could not here it that's why he cried, and the fans were great and he gave them is something humanity you will never get to not hear, this genius will go unrecognized for 60 years.

      Thing is, the guy wás noticed in all his glory by many during his lifetime and even more now. Every true musician knew and knows his craftmanship, his genius and all that. His fans knew too and more people are getting to know about it today. The people who always say how underrated he was make me chuckle most of the times...the guy was hardly ever underrated, maybe only when opening for the Stones way back when, but I can't think of any other moment when true music fans didn't recognise his power, talent or whatever you want to call it. If you're into popmusic (and in this case not only popmusic) you know he's up there with the best , and in my opinion and in the opinion of so many others he's probably the best of ' em all and most probably will always be.

      You aren't alone. I miss him as well. I can only imagine what he'd release right now if he was still "here." I can't say "still with us" because he will ALWAYS be with us while his music is here. This was my song, too!

      Prince overdosed on fentanyl? Do i need to explain it to you? Watch The rise of fentanyl on TH-cam then ask yourself if you really believe that a genius like Prince succumbed to something like that. If you're still not sure why he would need to fake his death, look in to the event's that where occurring in his personal life. Now do yourself a favor and do you're research. May you live to see the dawn.

    In light of the recent Grammys, it occurs to me that you can gather today's "best and brightest" in popular music and the most polished performance can't match The Revolution going through a routine soundcheck in 1984. That's what we're missing today.

    Listening to Prince giving direction to his band always leaves me in awe. He was so masterful at his craft and at such a young age. A brilliant composer, arranger, lyricist, and band leader, he was also the sexiest man to ever live. How I miss you Prince Rogers Nelson and how I look forward to sharing with you how deeply I love you when I finally see you in heaven. You were truly a gift to the world from God and a great source of sustenance in my life. Thank you for the joy! See you soon...

    Happy Birthday to the One & Only Prince. June 7 1958 gave birth to the most important songwriter & musician we will ever know. They talk about Beethoven. They talk about the Beatles. They talk about Bach & Joni Mitchell & Brian Wilson and .....well, they talk. But Prince.....he walked the walk. He talked the talk. He brought us the Most Beautiful Girl in the World. He told us Let's Go Crazy. He let us know a Dirty Mind was not a Controversy. He took all that to the top of the charts and even when the charts turned its back, my Lord did that man turn out some of the best music of his life. Prince4Ever.

    LIFE will not be the same without this man-this creative Power. Listen to his genius speak words of art.
    I started out in life as a piece of clay and was sculpted into the person I am through years of experience, changes, people, friends, parents, siblings, MUSIC, and growing up in Detroit in the 50's, 60's and 70's my environment.
    Prince was a part of the mold that created the sculpture of who I became.
    Now I feel as if the "I" has been chipped away. A sledge hammer has busted a piece from the sculpture of me--broken.
    Prince leaving this place on Earth has taken a part of me with him.

      A lot of artists specialised in one single instrument or ability like dancing would get worked by Prince. Even back then everybody knew that. No shame to elevate him as a music deity because he is. And deserves this recognition not a single doubt about it
