This was an All Star tribute at the "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame" after the induction of George Harrison as a solo artist. George had previously been inducted as a member of the Beatles. George died from cancer a few years prior to his election as a solo artist. The guy with the high pitched voice is Jeff Lynne the lead singer and main creator of the group The Electric Light Orchestra (ELO). ELO was huge in the 70s and 80s and might be a good rabbit hole to explore. George wrote this song and the beatles releaseed it on their album "The Beatles" which was known as "The White Album" in 1968. Eric Clapton, as an uncredited guest musician, played lead guitar on the Beatles version while George sang lead and the higher vocal harmonies were performed by Paul McCartney.
And that's George Harrison's son on Tom Petty's left side.
Spitting image of his father.
Also, I might add, George, Jeff and Tom, along with Bob Dylan and Roy Orbison, were members of the supergroup The Traveling Wilburys.
Steve Winwood in the back on keyboards.
check out the Beatles
This performance was to honor the song writer George Harrison from the Beatles. Even his son Dhani, is on stage playing
He's the young lad next to Tom Petty
@@yelnek4548 The one who Looks exactly like his father.
that is awesome!
This was Prince's protest and middle finger to the critics for being left off the top 100 guitarist list. Soon after he was slotted into to #33 of all time greatest.
Still too low. Prince was an awesome guitarist.
Yea Prince is Top 5 EASILY ...
From what I've heard, he wasn't even slated to be on stage. And Tom Petty was as pissed as he was for Prince being left off the list. Petty asked him to come on and just shred the end of the song. And he obviously did! He is definitely a top 10-15 guitarist of all time.
love that!
@@jrshelton3398 Wow, those two in your family must be very famous! Oh no?
You can't learn about music without listening to the Beatles. They are the most influential band in history. They changed everything in the music industry.
Prince himself was a huge Beatles fan and his Album Around the World in a Day is his love song to them.
Agreed. I haven't seen you do a deep dive on any Beatles songs yet, and they were absolutely iconic in changing music. Maybe more so than Elvis. Yesterday is powerful. A Day in the Life. Come Together. Let it Be. Penny Lane. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.
They had several 'stages'. Early stage was the bubble-gum simple songs. Then they got deeper/angrier. Then they got spiritual/hippie. All are great.
Thank you all popular music should be divided into BB and AB . Before Beatles,After Beatles.
Just read the comments or look at the full title of the video! Also start reacting to The Beatles!!!
Jeff Lynne and Tom Petty (deceased) along with two other music legends Roy Orbison (deceased) and Bob Dylan formed The Traveling Wilburys taking on fictional personas and producing several albums. The men on this stage had been friends with or admired George Harrison and The Beatles for decades. It was the second time George was inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.
I hope she stops and looks it up .This is torture.
Most people have no idea how great Prince was on guitar!!! And as far as I know he played 23 different instruments, he was a musical genius.
that is so cool!
Most underrated musician ever
He was a musical genius! He played, sang and wrote. He wrote numerous #1 hits for other singers.
Prince was a amazingly talented guitarist 🎸......he was heavily influenced by Bill Nelson,perhaps the most criminaly underrated guitarist of all time. He was in a band called Be Bop Deluxe,.....listen to Crying to the Sky off their " Sunburst Finish" album and you will hear exactly where Purple Rain was born!!!!
Jeff Lynne/ E.L.O is a must. Start with Mr Blue sky. You might find it familiar.
This song was written by George Harrison. He recorded this with the Beatles in 1968 on their White Album. George sang the song. One of the greatest solos in rock history.
thanks for the info!
Eric Clapton played the solo on the original "The Beatles: White Album" recording. Until I saw Prince do what Prince did on thst stage, I never expected it could ever be improved upon.
@@wadsworthaaron Someone once asked Eric Clapton what's it like being the best guitarist in the world and his reply was I don't know you'd better ask Prince?
@@wadsworthaaron yeah, I know. BTW, there is another video of an all star band tribute band doing this song. Eric Clapton plays his original solo. Including George's son is on stage, strumming rhythm guitar.
@@brittreacts The guitarist on this gig duplicated what Clapton played in the studio. Very famous solos.
I’ve always loved the part where Prince looks over at Tom like, “do I keep going?” And Tom basically nods back as if to say, “this is all you Prince, get it!”
Prince's solo was entirely improvised on the spot and none of the band knew what he was going to do. That there is genius 🙌🏻
Yeah but she was way too damn chatty!!!!
Prince is our Mozart, he mastered over 14 instruments by age 17, he could dance, sing any note, rap, he wrote, arranged, performed ALL his music, including wrote hits for other artists, he has covered almost every genre, Metal, Punk rock, hip hop, pop, r&b, soul, jazz, blues, country, ambience, classical, instrumental. The Multi-Genre God. He could play anything, and your favorite artists have been deeply influenced by him. Corey Taylor, Whitney Houston, Steve Vai, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Lil uzi vert, H.E.R. , Paul Mccartney, all worship Prince to just name a few.
Prince recorded his first 2 albums at 16 all by himself, all instruments, lyrics, arrangement, composition, production & vocals were all by him. He was such a prodigy, that music executives wanted proof, they would fly across country just to see if he could really play all instruments, because it was so unheard of. Prince has over 50 official released albums and when he passed, they found over 10 thousand unreleased Prince music in his vault. He then came into the business and was the FIRST to fight for artists rights, and he WON. He would write "slave" on his cheek and go to meetings protesting against the industry. Prince was also the first artist to sell his music on the internet. You are talking about the most talented artist we will ever see.
My quick research shows that it was DAVID BOWIE to first sell a full album online. However perhaps PRINCE sold an individual song beforehand. Either way both DAVID and PRINCE were geniuses. R.I.P to them both. Coincidentally they both passed in 2016. ✌
Whoa, haven't seen anyone reference H.E.R in ages...Ville Valo has such an imposing voice and stage presence...I love that one metal magazine described him as, "Mick Jagger's swagger with the presence of Brandon Lee in The Crow."
27 by highschool
That vocalist you asked about is Jeff Lynne, of ELO. You owe it to yourself to dive into Electric Light Orchestra's catalog. It's like nothing you've ever heard before. Sort of a Beatles meets Pink Floyd meets Tchaikovsky. I suggest starting with "Turn to Stone".
I will keep it in mind, thanks!
Or “Telephone Line”
@@LA80sMike Also a good one!
Or Mr Blue Sky, also a great song by ELO
@@brittreacts ELO is awesome... just an incredible band to listen to and experience
Prince’s guitar needed a cigarette after he was done with it.
haha
Hell, I NEED a cigarette each time I watch this performance, and I don’t even smoke! Prince was definitely a badass on so many different levels!
He certainly had a thing with his guitar. th-cam.com/video/E1yDVPY1E-w/w-d-xo.html
Prince was a once in a lifetime level of musical genius. He will be missed forever 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Britt, if you love the Tom Petty/Jeff Lynne harmonies; you’re in for a treat!!
Check out The Traveling Wilburys where both of them, George Harrison (the one this tribute was for), Bob Dylan, and Roy Orbison played around and blessed us with an amazing record right prior to the passing of Orbison.
Absolutely 😂🎉😅
What a great version of this song! On the original Beatle's release, the weeping guitar was provided by George Harrison's good friend, Eric Clapton. Eric returned the favor when he had Harrison provide the iconic guitar riffs for Cream's "Badge". Of course Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison, George Harrison and Bob Dylan all played together in the super group The Traveling Wilburys.
It is forbidden by the constitution to cut, pause a guitar solo, they can put you in prison
EXACTLY!!
I had a friend who was the biggest Prince fan,she had never heard this and she called me crying thanking me for this gift.
that is such a sweet story!
I don’t know if you know. In the video game named Risk of Rain 2. One of the songs is titled “The Rain Formally Known As Purple” is a song that is pretty much a tribute to Prince’s Purple Rain. I suggest checking it out and recommending the song to your friend if you think it is worth sharing!
The young man standing behind Tom Petty is George Harrison's son. George wrote and recorded this song when he was with the Beatles. Absolutely the epitome of a rock and roll classic. The Beatles influenced so many of the musicians today. They changed the music world forever.
Prince literally shredded that solo. Widely considered in the music industry to be the all time best guitar player ever and he played about every instrument. Somewhere there's a video of him playing drums with Sheila E playing percussion, it's beautiful. Stevie Winwood is the keyboard player here, quite the musical genius on his own right. The song was written by George Harrison of the Beatles, I urge you to listen to the original.
That song with Sheila E on drums then switching with Prince on drums is It's Gonna Be A Beautiful Night. Please check it out
Thank you Wanda, I couldn't remember the name. It is delicious.
Really. Who is better? What say you?
I have time. You couldn't even come up with one.
Not a chance. Page himself sad prince was better than he was. None on your list is better than even Glen Cambell whom Van Halen wanted lessons from. They may be hard players but they aren't great players. I'd have respected you if Les Paul or Mark Knopfler was on your list but no.
On a stage full of rock GIANTS...
Prince out shone them all!
What an absolute LEGEND!
R.I.P. PRINCE...
Is Prince just going to play guitar? LOL, Depends on what you mean by "just"... ;-)
haha true!
Legend says he threw the guitar back to heaven after its earthly purpose was complete
love that!
All of these other artists understood the Talent Prince was 😮😢❤😅😊 & each
Prince’s Superbowl performance remains the Best. It’s raining, he doesn’t focus on his music, but pays homage to other artists….There will never be another. You must deep dive.
There's a great production documentary on TH-cam about that. Producer calls to Prince, "it's forcasted to pour the rain". Prince: "can you bake it rain harder?". Well alright....
This song was a George Harrison song. George was known as the quiet Beatle. Like many quiet people, they don't speak often but when they do what they say is worth listening to. It took George some time to catch up to the famous writing team of Lennon/Mcartney But when he did he contributed some masterworks. This was one of them.
You ask, "Is Prince gonna sing?" He didn't just make it sing, he made it weep!!! I guess he wanted to prove a point. Definitely one of the greatest artists and musicians of any generation.
This was the all star tribute to George Harrison from the Beatles. His son is playing iny the back right of the group. He is the young man playing the guitar. This is when people realized that Prince was a beast on the guitar. He is easily one of the greatest guitarist of all time. George wrote this song and it was one of the greatest guitar focused songs ever.
The guy playing the weeping guitar in the body of the song is Marc Mann. He is a writer, producer and session musician. He has done quite a bit of work with Jeff since the 90's.
thanks for letting me know!
@@brittreacts
You are most welcome!
The ultimate" mic drop " at the end of his performance
That was Prince's "mic drop" moment, showing the world how amazing a guitarist he was. Nothing else needed to be said after that.
It was supposed to be a tribute to Harrison, not him.
It turned out to be both
@@kenhoyer8601it's the damn Jam session for the inductees that includes Prince and George Harrison!!!
People have known this about Prince literally for decades bruh! 😂😂😂.. It was a mic drop moment for people on TH-cam who never seen Prince perform before lol
@@YourMothersMan Except he was still massively under appreciated. People tended to discount him from the conversation of greatest guitarist. This solo is basically what put him on peoples lists.
Prince doesn’t have to vocalize to sing, he is letting his instrument do the singing!
The amount of talent on that stage is amazing. I had heard Prince almost backed out of it but changed his mind after talking to Tom Pretty. That would explain Tom's smirk when he kept playing in front of him.
OK I see you niece. This auntie is happy that you reacted to ""My Guitar Gently Weeps". Such an iconic mix of talented/legendary musicians doing what they do best, performing/sharing their GOD given talent/talents with us, the fans. Chefs kiss 🖤🖤🖤❤❤❤
Prince found out he was left off the list of the best 100 guitar players. Guess he showed them what a huge mistake that was! Go back and look at a picture of George Harrison in his younger years. Then look at the young man next to Tom. That's George's son. They look so much alike it gave me chills. So glad you enjoyed it as much as I did ☮️
Prince could have been on that list. But he decided to do pop music instead. That isn’t Rolling Stones fault.
This was a magical and iconic performance. Great tribute to George Harrison and Beatles. Once in a lifetime event!
Prince was actually holding back here. I've seen him go much crazier than this. On another note, I love the combo of Tom Petty and Jeff Lynn on vocals
Prince was the greatest musician of our lifetime. He played 23 instruments but the guitar was like an extension of his hands. He was amazing. His death & Tom Petty's both hit me hard. Their music meant & still means so much to me. 2 of the greats, gone too soon 💔
He played more than 23 instruments
I never did like Prince’s songs but I always loved his incredible guitar playing. He was a legend.
you'd probably enjoy the Prince Jazz Funk Sessions from '77, it's completely intrumental.
th-cam.com/video/cOc2MzvqbN0/w-d-xo.html
he is great on the guitar!
@Danny Murphy oh I have. Incredible.
Great reaction. I love Prince! There are only two guitar players that bring me to tears when I watch them perform, Prince and Stevie Ray Vaughan. My heart aches that they are both gone.
:Supposedly, Prince didn't show up for rehearsal, so the group wasn't sure if would show up for the performance. So a lot of the looks at Steve was Prince making sure he could continue with the solo. This was also after right Rolling Stone's 100 greatest guitarists issue and Prince wasn't listed at all, and many felt Prince was disrespected. This performance was probably a middle finger to the magazine .
You ruined the song by pausing all the guitar solos over and over again. It was just way too much.. But we still love you.
Tom Petty loved playing music with other artists, when the show began he made sure everyone had their own showcase to show off their best talents they had. Tom Petty never really interrupted them, all he did was play the back up and watched other talent go.
Prince did not have to sing or say one word. His exceptional guitar skills speaks volumes. Enough said.
I still find it so hard this late in my life when people don’t recognize a Beatle song! George wrote this song and was one of his biggest hits! I am really shocked because their music is everywhere!
If you like the guy (Jeff Lynn) singing I don't know why, you should, if you haven't check his band ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) for some greatness and beautiful fun music.
Oh Prince - the most talented musician of all time, the GOAT. I always thought of him as the baby of James Brown's funk and dance, Jimi Hendrix's guitar and Little Richard's audaciousness. What a mix! Probably the only one that could dance at Michael Jackson's level back in the day. He did it all and thank God we have the music to remind us of that. Can't even recommend where you'd start with him.
That is a perfectly descriptive combo of his talent!
Yes!!!
No, he’s not going to sing. What he’s going to do is show you what an enigmatic music man he truly was 💜
I will keep him in mind, thanks!
My wife and I love Prince! One of my favorite solos. Warmed my hear to see your reaction, and you nailed it, he was such a beautiful creature. Thank you for sharing
Prince sang a masterpiece with that guitar! Absolutely perfect!
Jeff Lynne has the voice you like. Steve Winwood is on keyboards.
Winwood is a great artist in his own right. Check out "Higher Love", "The Finer Things", "Dear Mr. Fantasy", "Low Spark of High Heeled Boys", etc. His band was "Traffic". Always a pleasure Britt...
@@davidburgess3882 I am very familiar with Steve Winwood. I met him once in Boscos pub, Nashville. It was 20 years ago. Steve was an investor in Boscos and lived in Nashville, maybe he still does.
thanks for letting me know!
This is from the evening Prince was inducted into the RRHF and George Harrison was posthumously inducted. Prince is beyond amazing. He's a one man army 💜
No no no, this is from the George Harrison tribute concert.
This is my all time favourite song and I'm 68 years young ❤ and yes Prince is about the Rock your socks Off.peace and love from Ireland
It's one of my favorite Beatles songs. Eric Clapton played on the original version.
glad you enjoyed it! it is a great song!
Best supergroup covering the best George Harrison song. Prince kills it, per usual, being a GOAT, but this whole performance gets me in ALL my feels 🫶🏼
Jeff Lynne of ELO. One of the greatest writers and producers in rock history. Check out some of ELO’s work
I will keep it in mind, thanks!
I haven't seen it mentioned but Jeff Lynne, of ELO, and the singer, was also in The Travelling Wilburys. Comprising, Jeff Lynne, George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty and Bob Dylan.
A short-lived group because it was created when they were all together in one place.
I saw Jeff Lynne's ELO in 2018 here in Newcastle. I bought my first ELO album back in 1976.
His guitar is weeping for the world.
Your reaction to this was beyond appropriate. Especially towards PRINCE. R.I.P to him and to TOM PETTY and, of course, GEORGE HARRISON. ✌
I can't believe you never saw this Britt! It's one of the most watched lead guitar solos of all time!
Britt, I loved your shock and awe reaction to Prince's performance, and especially @9:42 where you say: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is what I call making love to the guitar and making it weep at the same time."
As a guy that holds Prince the highest of any male solo artist,i love this reaction! (sure,he had his bands over the years,but he was in the front and being focused on,the bands were simply to back him up) I even got teased and even bullied for loving his music so much,while also calling myself a metal head and being heavy into Metallica,so over the years i changed my attitude around. I only say that im a music lover now,and if people still ask what im listening to,im like "abit of everything!". I still identify as a metal head,but i listen to all kinds of music,it just depends on the mood and day.
I never buckled under pressure,and i have to admit i loved Prince`s savage way of stealing this performance. Many called it a disrespect towards the other artists,and i seem to remember someone getting heated over how he pushed his guitar solo on and on,i believe some of the other performers went into abit of a "okay,now you are just overdoing it Prince!" type of mind lol. But Prince did it for a reason,he felt underappreciated for his guitar skills,so he wanted to prove himself to whoever ran thoose lists.
You know Prince is fed up if he tosses the guitar,all sassy and savagely,and just walks off the stage with that "diva strut". 🤣I did not see eye to eye with alot of his opinions etc,but i managed to look past it and i still loved him as a performing,singing,composing,writing genius!
Prince was going in on Michael Jackson,and Michael teased him back on any opportunity he got. But when Michael Jackson died,there was a story of someone knowing Prince. I cant come up with the name now. I think he went up with Prince on a roof somewhere,where they would just sit and talk and admire the landscape,great view they had. I think Prince watched at the stars at one point,and this person said Prince would NOT stop talking about Michael in a complimentary way. He just poured his soul about the loss of Michael and how great of a musician he was. So it was a rivalry there yes,but Prince had the outmost respect for Michael and cared for him. So a friendly rivalry more then anything,Prince wanted to overtake the throne from Michael,he wanted to have the same success and more,he had great goals for himself,but deep inside there was no grudge or hatred at all from Princes side.
Prince looked at Michael as a track and field sprinter look at his teammate,in a relay run they are buddies but in solo sprints they want to beat eachother,be faster and better then the other.
So in many ways,MJs fame was the absolute inspiration and motivation for Prince. And that lead to Prince making Purple Rain and actually bypassing MJ for the first time.
Many good documentaries on YT about thoose 2,i think 1 even includes Madonna.
Prince actually locked himself in for days,calling off his own rehearsal and sent his bandmates home,after he heard about MJs passing.And i just looked it up real quick,it wasnt a celebrity but a close friend of Prince actually,Tavis Smiley. I recommend this documentary for you Britt: Prince on His Rivalry with Michael Jackson! Candidly In His Own Words | the detail.
Prince was ... the greatest musician of his generation.
of all time, i think
The Beatles were master songwriters Britt. The reason you love the part with the lyric "I don't Know Why-i-i" so much is because the song changes keys from A minor to A Major during that part. The Beatles(John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison) were absolute masters of songwriting, lyrics, and melody. This is a song George Harrison wrote.
You forgot Ringo Starr
Prince and Tom Petty are jammin together in Heaven!!
@@patriciaellis4848 Love Ringo's contributions to the songs, but Ringo wasn't really a songwriter.
I loved his guitar toss and strut off as though he were saying, "I don't need this anymore. There's no music left in it." 😅
And yes, that guitar solo brings tears to my eyes every time. Thanks for the reaction!
George Harrison's greatest song, from the Beatle's White Album. That young lad is George's son, Dhani Harrison.
Jeff Lynne (ELO & Traveling Wilbury’s) one of the most brilliant minds in music! He is the man!!
That was awesome! More Beatles please (please me)!! More Prince too! :)
I will keep it in mind, thanks!
Original by The Beatles, written and sung by George Harrison
The was Jeff Lynne from ELO whose voice you loved.
This is one of my favorite reaction videos ever! In my humble opinion, Prince was the most gifted artist of my lifetime. And in addition to the talent, every artist who has the ability to own their masters has him to thank for it!
This song is a Beatles song written and sung by George Harrison. On the recording Eric Clapton, a rare guest artist on a Beatles recording, was brought in to play the guitar solo. I noticed that you hadn’t done any Beatles reactions before. Well, not any longer. Since George had died by the time he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this band of his closest musicians was brought in to play this performance. Even his son is on stage. He is the baby face guitarist over Tom’s left shoulder.
Its original version was the Beatles, written by Beatles George Harrison whose son is in the background playing the guitar..RIP George, TOM and PRINCE ❤️
Literally spit my mcfrappe out laughing when you said where’s Prince, is he on this song!?! 😂😂😂.
Just. You. Wait.
Tom Petty (The Heartbreakers, The Traveling Wilburys) - lead vocals, guitar
Jeff Lynne (ELO, The Traveling Wilburys) - co-lead vocals, guitar
Steve Winwood (Spencer Davis Group, Traffic, Blind Faith) - organ
Dhani Harrison - guitar, backing vocals
Jeff Young (Jackson Browne) - piano
Marc Mann (ELO, Oingo Boingo) - lead guitar
Scott Thurston (The Motels, The Heartbreakers) - bass
Steve Ferrone (AWB, Duran Duran, The Heartbreakers) - drums
Jim Capaldi (Traffic) - persussion, tambourine
Prince - soul, swagger, heat, sexiness
George Harrison - spiritual guidance
Eric Clapton - blues inspiration
Jimi Hendrix - cosmic influence
Written by the great and highly underrated George Harrison, my fave Beatle. Does not get any better, Prince and The Beatles-two of the the most fabulous and influential acts to ever grace the stage. Not to mention the great Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne.
Britt...you have to do Steve WINWOOD song... ROLL WITH IT 🔥🔥🔥💯
Prince didn’t get a chance to rehearse with the band and just went up and raw dogged this appearance and hit it out of the park. Miss you Prince. Rest well.
I may get flogged by die-hards for saying this, but 'PurpleRain' and the 'BATMAN sountrack' are right up there with 'Sign 'O The Times' for me.
The first because it tells the story of my teens (pretty much). The secong because it's all over the place and playfull - I just have the biggest smile on when done with this soundtrack 🙂
SO glad that I was fortunate enough to witness him live before he passed away ... R.I.P. my beautiful one
Quote Of The Day: "Because. yeah. Prince."
haha!
You’re so beautiful and funny, I enjoyed your videos. This was masterful performance by this musicians. Prince killed it with the guitar. What a talented person.
That was Jeff Lynne of ELO (Electric Light Orchestra.) if you aren’t familiar with them I strongly suggest you listen to some of their music.
I love how you breakdown lyrics and your comments but on this video 10 pauses is too many. I subscribe to you and will continue to enjoy your You "Tube". Constructive criticism- with all the pauses you broke the rhythm of the video and song. You paused twice during a magnificent guitar solo by Prince. This was a tribute to a famous guitarist.
RIP, George Harrison who wrote this for his little group, The Beatles.
it is so sad he has passed 😔
The singer you weren’t sure of was Jeff Lynne, he’s the lead singer of ELO, you should check out some of their songs, Evil Woman and Mr BlueSky.
The best live version IMO still is George and Eric at Japan 90 or 91, followed by Concert for George
And two quick notes about how good Prince was
Eric Clapton considered the greatest guitarist of all time was in a depression about the state of music.
And he saw a movie that was playing while he was driving purple rain had no idea what it was. He went in and watch the movie
And he said that he got out of his depression because he saw that music was still alive and well because of Prince
The second story is that a reporter once asked Eric Clapton how he felt about being the best guitarist in the world
And his reply was well you better ask Prince that because I think he’s the best
If you don't see Prince on stage, he isn't on stage. One thing about Prince, he doesn't blend into a background.
An Aside, when Eric Clapton was once asked what it was like to be the GOAT guitar player. Clapton replies, "You'll have to ask Prince.".
Sweetie if you don't know the Beatles music your honestly not doing yourself any favors. Start with the Rubber Soul Album then The White Album (While My Guitar Gently Weeps is on that one.) Enjoy!
Your reaction should have emphasized the beautiful song and included MORE interest in who wrote it; instead you got carried away by Prince's performance of the last solo in the song.
Forget Prince.
Forget Michael Jackson.
It was The Beatles and The Beatles alone who defined rock music.
If you're not steeped in the music of The Beatles, you haven't even begun to learn anything about how magnificent music can be.
This masterpiece was composed by George Harrison and he was only the third best songwriter in the greatest band of all time.
The Beatles never repeated themselves. Every track they ever created was an attempt to create a kind of music which had never previously existed.
Second raters such as Prince couldn't even aspire to such ambitions (notwithstanding that he was an excellent guitarist.)
Grat music. Doesn't need glitz, glamour, bs choreography, light shows, fireworks. Just the stage presence of great musicians delivering a memorable rendition of a classic rock n roll number. Modern day "super stars" pale in comparison. They rely on gimmicks to hide their lack of music skills.
PRINCE WAS THE BEST EVER, AND I WAS NOT EVEN A FAN OF HIS MUSIC, PRINCE IS AS GOOD IF NOT BETTER THAN ANY GUITARIST I KNOW OF, BUT PRINCE COULD PLAY MANY OTHER INSTRUMENTS, AND WAS A GREAT MUSIC WRITER, PRINCE IS AND WAS THE COMPLETE MUSIC ARTIST! PROOF ME WRONG!
If you like Jeff Lynn, then react to Electric Light Orchestra, Telephone line. That's my jam
The rumor is that Prince had never actually heard this song before. He listened to it in his dressing room for the first time a few minutes before the performance. Prince was the greatest musician of the 20th century.
I love this performance, especially Prince’s jaw-dropping guitar solo as his big F-you to Rolling Stone Magazine. Apparently, Prince didn’t rehearse with the other artists,so the only person who was aware of Prince’s impending guitar solo was Dhani, George Harrison’s son who is also on stage!
This is a perfect example of a song that if ya did an inch of research before listening, your reaction would be on a significantly deeper path - rather than asking & wondering about it origin….
Prince was the frikkin' Man! I don't care what anybody says. I really miss that guy.
He was the BEST!!!!🎉🎉🎉🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Jeff Lynne is the singer with the high voice. His band is electric light Orchestra. ELO
A George Harrison song. He passed away. His son is in this set. Beautiful song ❤ very tastefully done ❤ perfect song for Tom Petty to sing. Sounds like George
I can't imagine what it actually felt like to be in that room, but I'm guessing that there are several babies made that night.
The queen of pause strikes again, can't go more than 30 seconds, my gosh
As others have said, this was written by George Harrison , of the Beatles. That' s his son Dhani (playing acoustic in the back) . Prince said his one goal with this was to make Dhani smile. I say *mission accomplished!*
