Dhani Harrison is George Harrison's son. .. George wrote this song. Dhani was there honoring his pops!
So sweet to see him there for his father.
He looks just like his dad too.
Watching Prince looking at Dhani while playing the heck out of this song! George must have been smiling down from heaven!
@@judithstrenio9552 Dhani looks like he's in rock Heaven right now and who wouldn't be? I've watched this probably a dozen times and never tire of it.
@@jenniferrodriguez5337 When I first saw this I thought I was looking at a ghost!
Prince's smile to the other musicians during his performance is EPIC!!!
He’s asking. ”More?” Add Petty nods.
Prince's guitar solo was a finger to the magazine that left him off the top 100 guitarists ever list.
Exactly! I hope @Black Pegasus looks up the backstory here. I love Prince’s sassy response. We all know who was on the right side of THAT 😂😂💐
Same magazines which left late Eddie van Halen off the Top 10. Dummies. 😖😖
Any kind of "rating" or "ranking" in the world of art is pure BS. There isn't an objective way to measure art. There barely is a way to categorize music based on style, and we still argue whether certain songs belong "more to that style than the other".
Yeeeessss 💧☔🎸
I've seen some great guitarists perform live- Kerry Livgren, Alex Lifeson, Rik Emmet, Matthias Jabs, Rick Nielsen to name a few, and Prince himself. He is as good as any of them.
He walked in, killed it, threw guitar, walked off stage...Legend!❤
Big pimpin’ 😂
Dhani looks so much like his dad it's almost like George is there. What a tribute to my favourite Beatle.
Thank you for your sweet comment. My sister was a personal friend of George's back in the 70's and worked, I believe for Apple Records. We were Beatlemaniacs and saw them in concert in 65!! When I see Dhani it is bittersweet- so sad that George passed away, and so grateful that his "twin-son" is continuing his Father's beautiful, spiritual legacy. This song is greatly overlooked in musical history. Love to the Harrison family. 🎸🎶🎙🎵 🤗🙏💙
I'm with you on this !
I felt EXACTLY the same - and, still do, every time I see this performance!! ☮☮☮❤❤❤
That's what I was going to say- if you can't tell who Dhani's dad is just by looking at him...
I felt exactly the same.
Tom Petty reportedly mouthed “Go!” to Prince, telling him to not stop!
Prince was in full beast-mode!
That solo was Prince giving Rolling Stone Magazine the middle finger for not naming him in the top 100 guitar artists earlier that week. He came in without a rehearsal and killed it, tossed his guitar into the crowd and promptly walked off stage like a boss with zero F's given. That was Prince's guitar version of a grudge f***.
My issue is that Prince should have found a different time and place to show the magazine how he felt about the snub. This was a tribute to George Harrison and he should have kept his part in it, respectful. Everyone knows that he had quite an ego and he was definitely eccentric, but this crossed a line, IMO. Don't get me wrong... I've always liked Prince and I think he was an amazingly talented artist, but this little show of vengence and spite should not have been brought into a tribute to ANY other artist - not just Harrison. It left a sour taste in the mouths of many people, including a lot of lifelong Prince fans.
@@bobbiejojackson9448 In all fairness, Prince was one the of inductees into the R&R Hall of Fame at the same time (2004). As a lifelong Prince fan, his performance here didn't leave a bad taste in my mouth. And Dhani had a great time...and Tom Petty was the one who persuaded Prince to perform in this tribute.
And honestly, would anyone still be talking about this performance and have so many views if Prince wouldn’t have come out and killed it? Not saying it wasn’t a good performance otherwise, but Prince made it amazing! And worth watching over and over
When he walked off the camera went to Oprah in the audience holding his guitar lol it was awesome
@@bobbiejojackson9448 You're SO OFF BASE it's not even funny. Rock and roll should be dangerous, loose, unpredictable, sexy, rebellious and be dripping with swagger and attitude.
It would have been offensive for Prince to play Harrison's solo note for note and look bored and tame.
You really don't get it, do it?
There’s a huge back story to this performance, Tom Petty and Prince had a mutual respect for each other and Prince really wanted to do something with him, Prince was also snubbed by Rolling Stone in the “top 100 guitarist of all time” list and he had something to prove. Without going into detail the guitarist for ELO didn’t want Prince there but Tom has massive pull and said he absolutely will be.
You can see Prince is taking all cues from Tom and seen them smile at each other.
Dhani's smile to Tom Petty while Prince is absolutely shredding is fabulous!
Dhani looked so happy onstage but unfortunately he said some negative things about Prince afterwards, and I just haven't looked at Dhani the same since.
Dna I actually was NOT a fan of it..,said it was a”bit gratuitous “…
@@starlette570 Exactly! I shook my head in disgust at his comments!
@@starlette570 That's _NEPOTISM_ for ya! Sick of these kids of famous people that we are supposed to give a shit about.
@@starlette570 Thanks for the knowledge! I obviously took it at face value. Many geniuses throughout history who truly think outside the box of their times are maligned by their peers until time has proven them to be the true genius visionary that they are. IMHO, Prince's talent & music will be appreciated and studied long after most of his contemporaries. Cheers!
Princes Super Bowl Halftime performance is legendary. Played live, in the rain, no backing track. EPIC!
This! You have to see Prince's half-time show. One if the greatest rock performances of all time and by far the best Superbowl show.
Prince's show was so kickass that I didn't even mind that My Bears lost that Super Bowl. A couple of my dudes got hurt in the freakin' hurricane induced winds and torrential rains, and I was ok cuz Prince made it ok. Watch the documentary that the NFL did about it. A producer talks about how he told Prince it was raining when they met up to put on the show.
Prince said "Can you make it rain harder?" And I was like "Right on!" I don't want to ruin the rest
Best Half time Show ever ,Bruno Mars second ,Areosmith !!!
I've seen prince life as a kid. Open Air concert, during the rain... Purple Rain was amazing.
There is something special when a crowd can boil away the rain. Great Energy in the crowd.
Prince takes the weeping guitar to a totally new level.
Billions and Billions of Prince and Tom Petty FANS I KNOW SHED A FEW TEARS WHEN THEY PASSED 😢❤
I'm so excited you did this one! Tom Petty said that Prince didn't even show up to rehearsal so they had no idea what to expect from him. But as you can see, he showed up and he showed OUT!! 🎸
EDIT - I was incorrect, he was at rehearsal but didn't really rehearse. ✌️
Harrison's widow didn't really want him there, Prince wasn't a personal friend. He didn't rehearse because it wasn't 100% certain that he was going to even be ON; notice how they kept him sidelined until the end? You can go back and forth on who was disrespecting who until the cows come home, but the point is, Prince _respected_ George, and he turned very tense behind-the-scenes into a moment to shine. Tom Petty was a consummate professional, improvising with just bits of the chorus when Prince kept going.
Someone surfaced a picture recently that showed him at rehearsal so 🤷♂️
@@phunkysai I stand corrected, he was there but didn't actually rehearse
@xheralt was just thinking of how good the rest of the musicians are to react and anticipate and make a never rehearsed performance seamless
Princes owned the stage.
Legend has it Prince's guitar never came back down, and is still orbiting the earth, awaiting his return.
I love that Dhani is so obviously and happily in awe of Prince when he starts rolling. No ego, just recognition of an incredible musician turning in an effortless performance.
It’s sad to me that years later he retracted this initial reaction and tried to say he was laughing and snidely because of the audacity and showboating Prince did. I believe someone spoke to him and made him change his mind. But one only has to watch this to know that wasn’t the case in the moment.
@@rebeccahopkins9522 That might not even have been true, that he retracted. People say / write all kinds of sh*t that means nothing.
I always say that Prince’s guitar didn’t gently weep but cried for mercy. 😂❤🤘🏻
👏👏👏
My Man,
There are a few things you should know.
1. 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' isn't just one of The Beatles greatest hits it's one of the most iconic songs of all time.
2. George Harrison and Prince were both inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for their solo careers that very night.
3. Prince was on stage the entire time.
4. Tom Petty said that guitar never came down. 😉
Legend has it that Tom Petty was waiting for Prince in heaven with that guitar in his hands. 😏
Still get chills when looking at Dhani in this video. He is the SPITTING image of his father.
Prince was a musical genius, unappreciated by his peers! May his beautiful soul rest in peace.
Trust me, everyone knows he was the absolute best.
i think his peers were well aware of his talent.
At the very least he seemed to be respected by Georges son and Tom, and I have seen an interview where ZZtop's guitarist talks about meeting him and Prince was into his techniques, they talked guitars for hours. Real guys knew he was great.
That's simply not true
Anyone ever say Prince ain’t a great guitarist just needs to watch this.
And the superbowl!!
Agree!!!
Super Bowl
if he wasnt great he wouldnt have been allowed on stage with the legends that he shared the stage with in this performance. haters gonna hate.
There's not an instrument Prince couldn't play.
🇬🇧 Jeff Lynn (hat & sunglasses) was 74/5 years old here, and just listen to his voice. He still sings in the same key as he did when he was in his 20s/30s! TBF, they're all killing it here. Prince is amazing on the 🎸. George Harrison would be so proud of his son too. The sheer talent on that stage right there is phenomenal. Kudos to em all.
RIP George, Tom & Prince, you are ALL so missed 💔🩵
After many rewatches of this video, I just fell more more in love with Tom and Jeff’s vocal performances, so beautiful. My other favourite thing is Dhani in the background, doing this for the love of his Dad. I watched some videos on Dhani and saw how well Tom and Jeff treated him, you can see how much he is loving this and how important it is to him. The more I watch it though, the more I feel that Prince, as insanely brilliant as he was, was not connected to these people. There is some Prima Donna in there that I am not mad about.
Jeff Lynn is 76. He was 56 when this was recorded 20 years ago.
@@evanputterill8286
Thank you. Don't know where I got that bit of information from then. 🤔
@@mammuchan8923I feel it needed Prince’s solo to make this tribute come alive. It was lovely but needed energy and Prince brought that. Everyone on stage looked like they were enjoying him too, it made the tribute legendary
@@JazMegan 💜
Just when you think it can't get any better, enter Prince with a solo that sets everyone on fire.
He’s not even gonna show up unless he knows he’s gonna kill it
Eric Clapton was once asked in an interview what it felt like to be the best guitarist in the world and he replied that he didn’t know. Prince wasn’t there to ask.
That is a made-up story already debunked.
What gets me, in the feels, is that Dhani is there, putting this all together for his dad. It’s a magical, extraordinary moment. Brings tears.
I love that little sly grin on Dhani's face right b4 Prince comes in the spotlight like "oh shizz, this is gonna be wild!" And it was! lol
@@magoospsoriasismagic iT was, WILD
I think Jeff Lynne was the one who really put it together. He and Tom had the creds to get the other guys to come along.
Seeing Prince and Tom Petty on the stage together is just incredible. I always get chills during Prince’s solo.
I don’t know how may people truly appreciate what an amazing musician Prince was!
His guitar face is everything 💜 Prince was magical.
George Harrison, Tom Petty, and Jeff Lynne, along with others, were members of the supergroup "The Traveling Wilburys." Dhani is George's son, and is playing this tribute to his dad with his former bandmates, and others,all legends. Btw, one reason Prince wore high heels because he was only 5ft, 2in. tall.
Also, women like heels...
The traveling willburys were: George Harrison, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison and Bob Dylan.
Jeff Lynne was not a traveling Wilbury.
@@garyluciani1082he most definitely was a Traveling Wilbury!
Jeff Lynne was indeed in the 1st Traveling Wilbury CASETTE that I bought when they came out!
@@garyluciani1082 His wikipedia page says he was a cofounder of the Traveling Wilburys.
This is "MUSIC", not computer generated backing tracks, real music by real talented people. RIP Tom Petty & Prince, sadly missed but not forgotten!
George Harrison too
Prince was a musical genius and could play almost any instrument. So. So. So. Underrated.
Prince is highly rated... yet still underrated.
I don't think it is possible to give Prince a rating that couldn't be considered underrated...
@@liquidmindsagrée!
That was the best "Mic Drop" ever from Prince.
RIP Tom, Prince and of course George. I love Dani's reaction to posing Prince, that smile
If I was on stage with those musicians, I'd be smilling the whole time. It would make my life...
Prince is possibly the greatest musician that’s ever lived. The Mozart of our age, he was a musical prodigy that mastered 23 instruments…all by the age of 19. COMPLETELY SELF TAUGHT. Not only was he a mind blowing musician, but he was also a phenomenal singer, song writer, producer, dancer and performer. There will never be another Prince. And we will never see his like again in our lifetimes. I mourn him to this day. When he passed, it truly was the death of a unicorn.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡
Self taught? Both his parents were professional singer/musicians
i can feel that sadness for you. maybe Prince is the last of the greats.
i dont like him too much.
Yea Rebecaa,..its is true,...Prince is Best.
@@Thejoshrandall His father was a pianist, but didn’t teach Prince. He was self-taught, at everything.
Prince ran away with his solo, and they couldn't do anything but let him. You have to forgive him, because he's...Prince. And then you look back at this moment sadly after his untimely passing.
Knowing about his inflated ego ,I doubt it was a planned solo ,which is great, but kind of took over what was going on with the rest of the musicians on stage. If as they say he didn't rehearsewith the rest beforehand then this is the reason why...surprise, surprise ya'll !
Finally, I find someone who doesn’t bow to the altar of Prince. This was set up by his friends and peers, and Prince was neither . However, since Prince was being inducted into the Hall of Fame that same year, the producer of the show wanted him. There was tension during the rehearsals, but prince kept quiet. Dhani Harrison was strategically placed due to the tension with the other band members. Prince went rogue. A lot of the other members of the band weren’t happy. I did see a clip one time where Dhani was asked his thoughts on the solo and his response was “It was a bit too much”. Overtime and with the passing of Prince, Dhani has softened his thoughts on the subject.
@@edditorthe guitarist was disrespectful to prince at rehearsal by trying to steal his solos, but tom petty and the drummer were honored to play with prince. Prince's solo was magical
Yeah it was kinda a dick move but I loved every second of it.
@@edditor The producer said, "It became one of the most satisfying musical moments in my history of watching and producing live music."
Petty told Prince to do his own thing and to "cut loose". He also said, "You see me nodding at him, to say, “Go on, go on.” I remember I leaned out at him at one point and gave him a “This is going great!” kind of look. He just burned it up. You could feel the electricity of “something really big’s going down here.”"
(From the NYT article on it, where many of the participants were quoted.)
Prince was and always will be one of the best dressed men in the history of music.
And Women 🤣😂🤣😂😂
This is one of my favorite Beatles songs. These artists absolutely did this song justice. Amazing performance.
Mine too
The Beatles were the greatest song writers EVER.....they put out so much that someone ,somewhere in any part of the world would recognize one of their songs. Simply amazing...
@@Cchan53 Queen too
Noticed a couple of times when Prince smilled at Dhani Harrison, like "Yo kid, this is for your dad."
Prince is so talented, so cool.......RIP Prince thanks for making my life better.
Love this ❤
The look he gives the other artists is pure class. They all know he can kill that crowd. He looks at them before taking over. Then melts everyone’s face
Prince absolutely SHOWED OUT!! RIP to an absolute legend!
Prince? I had no idea how’d incredible he was on the guitar.
And Tom Petty is always fabulous.
May they both RIP.
Great reaction.
Prince is a master of every instrument, writer and composer ......MUSIC GENIUS!
You know it
They weren’t even sure Prince was going to show up that night. Not only did he show up, HE SHOWED UP!
Watching Danhi’s face as Prince just smokes that guitar is pure joy.
And rumor has it the guitar is still circling earth.
Holy smokes why have I never seen this masterpiece. RIP Tom Petty and Prince. Love the flipping of vocals between Tom and Jeff. Wow, gorgeous
It's from a tribute concert for George Harrison. There are piles of great performances. I highly recommend it.
@@mrsgrim688 thanks so much, I am going to go check it out
@@mammuchan8923 You're more than welcome.
Other performances that I can watch over and over are from the The Band's last concert on Thanksgiving Day in 1976. Martin Scorsese released a documentary on the affair in 1978 that is just great with performances by Neil Young, Neil Diamond, The Staple Singers, Emmylou Harris, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Muddy Waters, and I'm sure I'm forgetting some more.
Also, JIC you're unaware, there's a 1978 flick called Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band starring Peter Frampton and The Bee Gees as the titular band with performances by Billy Preston, Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, and even Steve Martin and George Burns, all doing Beatles tunes. More recently there was a 2007 musical Across The Universe, just full of Beatles references and comprised of nothing but Beatles tunes performed by actors who can really sing.
This is a really long winded response to your thx, but I would rather tell you something you already know than take the chance on your missing out on what I consider to be truly great music being made.
Peace.
There's playing an instrument, and then there's having absolute mastery over it.
Prince was an unbelievable player. The look on the faces of the others on stage with him was priceless.
They were in shock because he didn't take part in the planning ,the rehearsal...he just came on and took over the stage . If this was not planned and not known to the others then totally Un cool. Guarantee that would not have ever been allowed during one of his stage performances, someone comes on plays like a crazy solo and then just walks off? Huh..I wonder if the others involved that evening were ever interviewed about that night and the time leading up to it ???
@@Cchan53 I thought they all looked like they were having a good time but yeah, Prince has major diva energy. Too many front men in the front maybe.
@@Cchan53. Not true. Prince was at the rehearsal, and planned how the whole thing would go down with Joel Gallen, the producer of the show who asked him to come play. Prince just didn’t play the part during the rehearsal, as Jeff Lynn’s guitarist accidentally cut him off when Prince’s part came up, as he had been practicing playing the original solo note-for-note and got lost in the moment. Prince didn’t want to stop the rehearsal, as he was actually very humble, according to Tom Petty. Before he left, Prince simply reassured Gallen how it would go down at the end, and followed through with the plan at the final performance.
The beautiful thing is that on stage they're all legends, talented musicians who know their stuff, and then Prince comes along with his guitar and makes them disappear with his skill and madness. You can tell he's having a blast and Dhani Harrison laughing like crazy alongside Tom Petty is a fantastic scene.
Prince was here!
Steve Winwood was the one playing the organ, and is considered one of if not the best ever at playing rock organ. He's been playing for a long time, starting in the 60s with Traffic and Blind Faith, and had a strong solo career during the 80s. You've probably heard his songs "Back in the High Life Again" and "Higher Love."
I will only add that Low Spark of High Heeled Boys by Traffic is a legendary classic.
Started with the Spencer Davis Group "Gimme Some Lovin".
@@LonghopeBro-ju6jl and that song is awesome.
That's not Elo, it's E.L.O: Electric Light Orchestra.
He's also a great songwriter, vocalist and guitarist. Check out Dear Mr. Fantasy, and my fave: Can't Find My Way Home. I would recommend a deep dive into Steve Winwood.
Thank you so much for reacting to this! Prince is an amazing talent. He plays drums, keyboards and many other instruments
It's a scientific fact: this is the best guitar solo ever performed.
I think the guitar solo on Funkadelic's Maggot Brain is the best guitar solo ever recorded. I think the live version was pretty good too.
This solo makes me weep.....ridiculous amount of emotion he's wringing out of that thing❤
Oh man. I'll jam on the brakes for this one every time. I mean, the greats, but you can't have the greats without an immortal song. Say what you will about Prince-the man was electricity personified. RIP Prince. RIP Harrison. RIP Petty.
On a stage of legends, Prince went full epic!
He threw the guitar to George in heaven.
Prince had a guitar nearby to catch it for him.He gave a quick glance over to make sure the tech caught it.Prince had that particular guitar since way before the Purple Rain era "1984" Prince played with it again during his halftime show at Super Bowl XLI 2007.
Evidently he willed that guitar to Revolution guitarist Wendy Melvoin (or he gave her an exact duplicate), that she uses in this video...

THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😍😍😍
Could not click play fast enough. One of the BEST performances ever!
Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne were part of the Traveling Wilburys with George Harrison and Roy Orbison
And Bob Dylan.
Love Traveling Wilbury’s
@@GoldenBuddah1972 great album
Oh, and many congratulations on your new baby girl!
No matter how many times I watch this performance, I still get the chills seeing Prince DESTROY that guitar on that stage. Prince was & still is THE TRUTH. I’m so glad you got to see this video and see why so many of us love “His Royal Badness” so much. 💜
Right. Seen dozens of times over the years. He's fab
.
This solo was a direct response to not being part of the top guitarists list released by Rolling stone in 2004. The list came out shortly before his HOF induction and he responded with this monster of a shred session. Great reaction!
Pure fire and goosebumps each time i hear Prince electrifying guitar ❤❤❤❤❤❤
When Prince threw his guitar that was a metaphorical "mic drop"! He was so underappreciated as a guitarist, one of the best (IMO). The guy on the acoustic guitar to the right of Tom Petty was Dhani Harrison, George Harrison's son. Steve Winwood (from the bands Traffic and Blind Faith, also had a solo career with hits like Higher Love) was on the keyboard, Marc Mann (guitarist from ELO) played the other solos before Price joined in. According to lore, Prince's tech caught the guitar he threw and delivered it (per Prince's instructions) to Oprah. It is now interred in Prince’s Paisley Park (Prince's former home and studio), which is basically a tour destination for fans now.
Wow! Great info. All I knew was I loved it. Thanks for filling in that information.
Thank you! I knew I recognised the other guitarist but couldn't remember his name or place him and no one was even mentioning him. Personally I preferred the sound of his guitar over Princes. Princes is quite a scratchy/screechy sound. I also don't get everyone's immense praise to him for this performance because if you break it down it wasn't anything particularly special or difficult for any good guitarist. Don't get me wrong it was a really good solo but almost all the comments are people going nuts for this when there are way better ones out there and the other guitarist (Marc Mann) was frankly just as good; they were just different. Sometimes the tone and beautifully placed notes are far superior to super fast technical solos (like from "Hard To Say I'm Sorry" or "From This Moment", short but beautiful).
@ Creed Bratton...THANK YOU someone obviously with some real knowledge of musicianship...I agree with you whole heartedly. And the throwing guitar at end , such a petty and common gesture really...
Prince gave his guitar to Oprah afterwards ? OMG I won't even go into what I think about that....
Prince always wore heels PERIOD because he was only 5'2" (no matter how talented you are, everybody has their insecurities). After he had his hip replacements in 2010-11 (related to him jumping off of speakers and being such a dynamic performer for so many years IN HEELS), he did show up to a few events in sneakers.
But they were always platform sneakers and boots 😂. Can’t bring him down…in size that is.
Stevie Winwood is a solo phenom. He has been in several bands but his solo work is really great.
He was in Traffic and Blind faith and the amazing solo career
BEAUTIFUL, THE LEGENDARYS PLAYING IN MEMORABILIA OF THE LEGEND OF AND FOR
GEORGE HARRISON
RIP PRINCE 🎶 🎵 🎸 🎸
Steve windwood not for Dire Straights. He's another legend who started in band TRAFFIC and later BLIND FAITH! then solo artist. Diré Straights lead singer is Mark Knopfler
Dire Straits
KNOFLER another great talent!
I think he referred to the guitarist with the cap. Not sure who that is, but not someone from Dire Straits
@@dirkh772 I believe that’s Marc Mann from Oingo Boingo
@@Cchan53
Mark * _Knopfler_ *.
I have seen about all the Great Rock guitarists. Country Greats, Rock, Hard Rock, mind-blowing bands. Rock & Roll Roadie from the West Coast to the East Coast. 1965--1970. "PRINCE" rules. Jeff Beck, Joe Walsh, Eric Clapton, Alvin Lee, etc.
My dad died about 6 months after Prince, and I replicated his outfit from this video for my daddy's funeral.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Prince was mind blowing on this one ! I think he out did himself We miss you Prince.
Jeff Lynne is definitely one of the best song writers, guitarist and singers of all time. ELO is another great band you should listen to if you haven’t already.
Not to mention producer as well.
I beg to differ do even know Neil Peart, the drummer for rush he wrote almost every song they sang, and everyone of those songs have true meanings.
@@rammannawar1626 Are you saying Neil Peart wrote ELO's songs?? If so, you should google that. Jeff Lynne wrote Almost all if not all ELO's songs.
@@janbrayshaw7276 Neil wrote the songs for Rush not for ELO and I like both bands.
So many great songs. I'm seeing them in October. I can't wait. My first and last time because this is their last tour.
Jeff Lynne's voice though! At his age, live... effing amazing.
You should check out Prince's Superbowl halftime show in the pouring rain. He lit up the rain with purple lights and played Purple Rain in the purple rain like he ordered it. Most impressive performance ever!
I love Prince at the Super Bowl. The video with the narrator is the best!
Oh my gosh. All our greats of my generation together doing this timeless piece. And. How I miss Prince and Petty. I believe our generation put out the the best tunes. From '60's till the '80's. Brings back light bulb moments for me. 👏 👏 👏.. thank you.
Jeff Lynnes voice and harmonies with Tom are amazing.
Prince was a modern Mozart !!!! He was I believe the best musician in my lifetime for sure but I would say he comes around every 100 years or so !!!!
Steve Winwood is on keyboard. He was in the Spencer Davis Group and Blind Faith, but not Dire Straits. Tom Petty died a year after Prince died. RIP Legends! Dhani Harrison, the young guy next to TP, is George Harrison's son.
Steve Winwood was also in Traffic. The Low Spark of High Heel Boys.
Absolutely LOVE this! Prince was a badass! I wish I had seen him in concert...😔
NOBODY puts PRINCE in a corner!!!!
I saw what you did there.
@@higgme1ster 😋😋😋😋😋
This show and watching people react to it never, ever gets old for me. God, I'm still heartbroken he is no longer walking the earth with us. I grew up listening to Prince. I'm talking like 7 or 8...maybe younger...and I'm 47 now. Miss him so much! 💜
Also been listening The Beatles practically since birth. My parents were big fans. I remember when everybody was switching over to cassettes, my Dad gave me his old 8 track player and his whole collection of 8 track tapes. Again, I was anywhere from 5 to 8 years old. This song was always one of my favorites of theirs. Plus, I though George was dreamy. ☺😆 So, it only makes this moment even more special to me.
Prince throwing his guitar up in the air was like dropping the mic. It's like he was born with a guitar in his hands - just so natural at it and makes it look so easy. Never get tired of this performance!
Not everyone loved Prince’s music. But the man was not a human. He was soul and music in human form. Greatest live performance I have ever seen. Without question.
The great thing about this is that the guy who was doing the solo before Prince was hogging the rehearsal time whenever these musicians met to go over this song. Everyone was afraid that Prince would back out of the performance because of that dude not letting him play during rehearsals. Prince said it was okay. Producers were nervous because Prince didn't get to rehearse with the rest of the group. No worries. Prince played, and it was EPIC! (And Prince died on April 21, 2016. R.I.P.)
WOW!!!!!
Simply the greatest solo ever. Prince shows his skill and talent. Full confidence and a touch of arrogance for good measure.
This was Prince giving Rolling Stone magazine a big eff you for leaving him off their list of 100 greatest guitarists!!!
For those who think Steve Winwood is just a keyboard player, you should react to his performance of Dear Mr Fantasy, from Crossroads 2007. He is one of the best multi-instrumentalists of all time. He may look like your math teacher has somehow accidentally wondered onto the stage, but that man can sing, and he can play.
All of the musicians on stage are amazing. Definitely worth checking them out.
Tom Petty has a bunch of great songs, Jeff Lynne is the frontman of ELO (Electric Light Orchestra). Both were in the Traveling Wilburies; a supergroup including Roy Orbison, Bob Dylan and George Harrison.
Steve Winwood played for Eric Clapton and the Powerhouse, The Spencer Davis Group and Traffic.
All of them are amazing musicians.
Steve Winwood, playing the Hammond B3 organ, is a British musician who was a member of 3 masterful bands, beginning when he was only 16 years old. First, blues band The Spencer Davis Group, then Traffic and Blind Faith. Steve can play almost every instrument, but usually leads on the B3 organ or guitar. He became a huge solo star in the 1980's with songs like "While You See a Chance" , "Back in the High Life Again", "Higher Love" - #1 on Billboard, and "Roll With It" in 1988. Please look at "Gimmie Some Lovin" and "I'm a Man", then from Traffic, "The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys" and "Dear Mr. Fantasy".
Half of the people tuned into this won't know or care about this info you just gave ,I do ,I was a part of that beautiful time ☮️
Prince💜💜💜💜💜just a phenomenal performance
Fire, fire, fire! One of my favorite things to watch. Prince kills that guitar!
Steve Winwood...Gimme Some Love. A must hear. Mind blowing!!!
Most people don't notice that when the roadies push Prince back on stage after the backbend, his guitar actually cuts out. He handles it professionally and actually smiles at the sound guy, instead of freaking out like most musicians would.
Brightly is so beautiful. Welcome to the world little girl and may your life be blessed.
That's not a performance. That's an experience!
@@kdbee6086 I just dropped my hot pocket!! Lol
@@kdbee6086 Truth
Bp, this is one of the best performances by Prince fabulous 💜💜🎸 playing love ❤️ it.
Throwing the guitar up in the air is the best mic drop EVER.
Prince wouldn't be seen playing with just anyone. The fact that he was up there with these fellows says a lot about what he thought of them. And the late George Harrison
Prince is the best performer I have ever seen. And I've seen a lot of 'em, cuz i'm old. Prince is just hands-down the BEST.
Dhani (on acoustic guitar) is the spitting image of his father. Steve Winwood (Higher Love) is on keyboard. This was a great performance!! Prince's guitar skills were always underrated...phenomenal! RIP George, Tom and Prince!
Greatest thing about this performance is they’re obvious respect for each other and the smiles they exchange knowing they’re smashing it ❤❤❤
George Harrison was a beetle and he wrote while my guitar gently weeps Danny Harrison, is his son.
Eric Clapton played on The Beatles Original Recording. Well, my guitar gently weeps You Really need to see the concert for George. After George harrison passed away . ELO Stands for Electric Light Orchestra.
* _Dhani_ * Harrison
(pronounced 'Danny', spelt _Dhani_ ).
And George was never a "beetle" !!
He was a Beatle.
