sadly, back in oct.1981, nobody understood with Prince' open for the Rolling Stones .. we already knew back then that Prince was an amazing entertainer. He could sing he could shred the hell out of a guitar and he certainly could dance and he wrote some pretty amazing songs. He is gone way too soon. I’m 75 and I’m white and I think he was phenomenal.
Hey Anthony... I was at that Rolling Stones concert back in '81 with a bunch of people from high school. I was way up in the stands so I couldn't see it very well from where we were sitting. What was strange was that the music that Prince played was more similar to what was being played over the intercom while we were waiting for the bands to come on stage - only with Prince's music you could actually dance to it. One of the big deals back then was what he chose to wear (a speedo and a raincoat), but I'm sure there was a bit of racism too. I remember this being a time in our culture of the big divide between people who would admit that they liked disco - and those that chose rock in roll. Prince dared to combine them. I really would have liked to have seen Prince's set. But... wouldn't we all now! Such a crazy world this can be!
Prince was 19 years old. It is called Loring Park Sessions ’77, a series of free recording sessions in the studio of Loring Park (Minneapolis) owned by Owen Husney, Prince’s first manager. Eight tracks, all instrumental and untitled, realized with the participation of bassist Andre’ Cymone and drummer Bobby Z, who will soon become members of Prince’s first band.
Thank you! Was going to ask if anybody knew the line-up. Like, that's some fierce bass. Wouldn't be surprised if it was Prince, but I sure like that it was people playing together vs 1 multi-tracking like we're all doing lately.
Ok I have been a Prince fan for 43 years and This is the first time I have had the honor of hearing this. WOW. Yes. Yet another gift from his Majesty. This one is special though. I have been a professional musician for over 30 years and this is the first time I have ever 'jammed with Prince' my gawd I am having the time of my life. These pieces are bringing things out of me through my guitar that are beautiful. I am free! I think this came to me tonight because I am ready to have it. Again, thank you Prince.
I would say you have your fingertips on the pulse of the fact that the Man was not only an Iconic musician, but a teacher or should I say professor as well, and using this as a backing track was a great gift from Prince that he left behind for us. Thanks for having the good musical smarts to enlighten us. I just need to decipher the keys to play cross harp. Any help would be appreciated. ..will try the chromatic till then.
Hey Robert, Dig, you gotta check out N.E.W.S. by Prince if you have not already....I think it will stretch the limits of your creativity and your guitar strings as well. ..Nuthin but the best !!
We said hello to each other on 23th and Chelsea in the Village, one summer afternoon. So pretty unforgetable, I am too sad about his absence! May he make music in HEAVEN FOREVER!

I think his music collaborations ,would have been a great experience for him , He was in love with expressing himself in sounds and was uniquely made to give 🎉
I hope that people will respect him and recognise him as a great guitarist! He derservises our respect. Rest in Peace, Thanks for the music. Be with your God.
Thank U 4 sharing!!! This should B heard by ALl!!! So they 2 will know just how talented our hometown boy was!!! There will never B another like him!!! He was a gift from God!!!💜💜💜
I don't own a single Prince record - my brother's the Prince fan - but I would have spent my paper route money on this if it has come out back then, bought the cassette through the record club, and the CD reissue!
@@carolinewoodward1016meilleur artiste m.jackson ???? Meilleur danseur probablement !!! Pour le reste désolé, on est pas à la maternelle, on va pas jouer à non le meilleur c'est le mien 😫 mais franchement pour le reste ce que Prince a réalisé tout au long de sa carrière ( et tous seul ) ses qualités de multi instrumentistes, sa voix ,la manière dont il a dirigé tout ça et encore une fois seul il n'y en a pas beaucoup à ce niveau. Et j'ai 60 ans donc j'ai eu le temps de voir et d'entendre les géniallissime J.Hendrix, J. Brown, M.Davis, D. Bowie et plein d'autres. Prince était vraiment à part. Et vive la musique.

I've seen Prince 3 times in concert he played in one concert more than a dozen instruments, he was a genius, so sad that he is not alive anymore...but he has left his fantastic music for us to play forever, nice gift - Thank you PRINCE!!!
Just before his first album, where he did everything. In the song “Just as long as we ‘re together” there is a cool funk interlude. On “I m yours “ he jams with himself too
I remember buying that Madhouse 8 album and was totally blown away by this man's special genius. Prince was surely a musical savant...way ahead of those in his time.
I saw Prince live on several occasions. I have never seen anyone that so completely fulfilled their musical existence. He was born to be a conduit of music. About this Jam session: Usually I find that musicians that can perform on a higher level like this would not be interested in writing or performing pop music. Take for example someone like Buddy Rich who thumbed his nose at anything that wasn't Jazz. One of Prince's great strengths was to write great pop records (and do them well), but then in a live performance inject all kinds of elements into those songs that might otherwise become only re-performances of the record. He also seemed to know at which concert to turn-up the other elements (smaller venues, fan-based shows) and when to just "wow" with the hits. You also never seemed to get the same version of any song at a show, it was musically fresh and often better every time!
He loved Amsterdam and holland in general to play live , I saw him in Amsterdam promoting his first Album in the club called Jazz land for three dollars 18 years old in 1980 I was sold ,already had his album but from there I knew lovely person to what a ride .
I never saw Prince but I think there are a number of high level musicians who crossed over into the pop world and had hits. Like George Benson, Tom Browne, Patrice Rushen (who I saw recently in London) and others. It was a unique period in musical history.
“Than” and “Then” don’t mean the same thing. Stop improperly using words so we have to fill in the meaning lol sheesh 🙄 You’re probably one of those people who uses your and “you’re” improperly also just wow 😮
Mind blown. 19 yrs. old and some of it would feel at home on Steely Dan's AJA....or Pat Metheney....also a Billy Preston 'Outa-Space' influence on certain tracks. Prince left a hole that will never be filled.
chill out dude, it was only TH-cam's dislike bots, no actual humans have disliked this other than a couple people with bad aim who missed the like button... I'd be honored if some Prince fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal TH-cam performances of PURPLE RAIN and DIAMONDS & PEARLS in tribute to the greatest songwriter/producer/multi-instrumentalist of all time. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and RESPECT to the genius of Prince.
@@jas_bataille so you are being snarky on someone elses' behalf, based on your own projected misapprehension? Why are you questioning what is very simply just a question of curiosity and not any kind of dubious intention you ascribed. Wtf? Very ridiculous concerns you have...

Rip my man .
He sure dissapoints and very often too! Lets be honest! He is one of my biggest 5 idols in music! But he made a lot of crap too right?😂😂 Scandalous? You always in my hair? Heaven? Erotica city? GLAM Slam? Thieves in the Temple? Gold? Dolphin? Pussy control? Betchagonnawellowow? Sometimes it shows in April? Dinner with Dolores? Chelsea Rogers? Peach? Etc etc etc!😂😂😂😂😂😂 Billy Jack bitch? The pope? AND ALL HIS OTHER SHIT BALLADS I CANT REMEMBER!😂😂😂😂 but this kind of work is out of this world! Also his guitar play but not always! A true MOZART Who thaught that everything he made was excellent! Making ONE song a day is every 6 or 10 days a good song!❤❤❤❤ BUT besides that i have to admit that if you judge him in general, he controlled different styles and instruments and his knowledge of music in history and present is EXTRA ORDINARY! But he was a worthless dancer and when he sang high it was shit! Only Kiss was a good song whit his high voice and maybe the song ' most beautiful girl in the world' or "god"! Speaking about the dead nothing but good! BUT..........WE are all true fans right? So we know better than the rest! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I wish we had heard this music at the beginning of Prince's career, but it's pretty clear why we didn't if you put the time in context. Warner Bros. Records was signing this incredible musical prodigy to an unprecedented 3 album deal around this exact time and they wanted a "the new Stevie Wonder"-sized return on their investment. Releasing fusion-jazz-funk albums wasn't going to make that happen. So, this just went into the vault so Prince could focus on becoming a bankable soul-pop star. All of this notwithstanding, these recordings are a stunning insight into Prince's unassailable genius that was already fully-formed from the beginning. I truly want this material to be officially released. I'm dying to hear it in pristine sound quality on my home stereo.
well said! Reminds me of that story Questlove tells about the time he and John Mayer were in the studio coming up with all kinds of amazing things, and then some label manager caught them "wasting time", and snatched John Mayer away to work on his "real" project. Who knows what crazy things they were coming up with that just ended up in a vault. Maybe we'll finally get to hear it in 2037
1970: Boy why are you listening to this freaky music when there's some serious debate goin' on? 2020: Boy why are you watching those freaky creeps when there's some serious funk goin' on?
All time favorite album, nothing comes close. Try dancing to this alone. You will not regret it. If you feel crazy, try dancing to this with someone sexy.
The mind-blowing improvised funk sessions feature a 19 year old Prince on keys/guitar, Andre Cymone on bass, and Bobby Z on drums, held in the Loring Park office rehearsal room of Prince’s first manager, Owen Husney. Prince also takes on drums and bass throughout the session, switching it up for a thoroughly impressive session. This is a must-listen for any fan! These eight instrumental tracks sound more like well-crafted compositions rather than the improvised jams that they are.
It's 2024. Im 47 y.o. and didn't think I could love Prince any more than I've been since the early- mid 80's.smh again 😮💜
when you got a moment head over to his 1975 sessions and 1976 one too in for a treat.
👀 he has a lot things unreleased.
He was the Mozart of our era. He will live on for years.

drummer is killing it....as well as the rest, very cool jams...
the bass as well....
that was Prince. like the all other instruments
19 years old... Can't wrap my head around it.

Just before his first album, where he did everything. In the song “Just as long as we ‘re together” there is a cool funk interlude. On “I m yours “ he jams with himself too

Almost 50 years later, the man is still entertaining me. Never heard this before, what a gift!
There may not ever be a Talented Musician....like PRINCE....and...he was Great at a young age....to FUNKY R.I.P
So glad I stumbled upon this today.
From 1977 to eternity!. Thanks Prince.
es una cosa de locos que a los 19 años, en esos años, pueda componer esto.
Keep in mind that Prince is approximately 18 years old at the time of this recording. Amazing.

He certainly did. I agree.
I agree on the names but the funk was just a tad higher than Steely Dan or Billy closer to Metheny
@@krisscanlon4051 But the sound quality and drum sound is very similar to Aja, and the jazz chord changes are very similar to Aja as well.

2020: Boy why are you watching those freaky creeps when there's some serious funk goin' on?
Wow! No limits to talent of this superhuman.
Este loco era muy capó otro nivel
This needs to go on a CD ASAP.
Come on, dude. On VINYL.
Okay both, I wanna jam to this on my way to work.
Vinyl too. It's very Herbie Hancock Headhunters with sprinkles of Steely Dan

In my opinion this is WAY better than any of his 'pop' tracks/ albums. Thats just my opinion. He should have stayed with the funk!
well the funk doesnt pay the bills....but it deffinetly makes you shake your booty, even on an empty stomach!!!!!
@@solarplex2128 LOL!!!!
@@lindawhobbs am i right or am i wrong ?????
You're completely right.Funkjazz is music from a higher order!those so-called pop hits are trash compared to this Funkjazz
All time favorite album, nothing comes close. Try dancing to this alone. You will not regret it. If you feel crazy, try dancing to this with someone sexy.
There's intelligent life in the yt algorithm.. thank you!
Always respected him, never purchased any of his music . . . BECAUSE I NEVER HEARD THIS. Luv it!
For real!
Same Here. That will change as soon I shop on ebay in s few minutes
Pure genius! Greatly missed...
Muses and seers can become receivers of that universal consciousness that allows them to transpire music to the masses
Amazing talent which he squandered frequently. I'm sorry to say, but I find this again and again.
The mind-blowing improvised funk sessions feature a 19 year old Prince on keys/guitar, Andre Cymone on bass, and Bobby Z on drums, held in the Loring Park office rehearsal room of Prince’s first manager, Owen Husney. Prince also takes on drums and bass throughout the session, switching it up for a thoroughly impressive session.
This is a must-listen for any fan! These eight instrumental tracks sound more like well-crafted compositions rather than the improvised jams that they are.
