And way to go saying they could melt my face off.. that's basically insinuating, that their style of playing was destructive. I thought it has been uplifting and full of joy. But I can see you have a lot of negativity pent up. I'm just putting Knopfler in his rightful place above them all. This doesn't mean that I am 'burning' him with that comment.

      What I really love about this though is that Prince wasn't just hogging the spotlight. There were several times during the solo that he paused and looked at Tom Petty to wait for the nod before he started another 32 bars. They all wanted him to keep playing and weren't just waiting there like "Oh this guy again..."

Wow! Can Prince play that guitar, which was the first time for me. . That man had tremendous talent and for some reason I didn't even know it. 🕊️ Can that guy play or what🎉. I was mesmerized. Never knew he could play guitar like that? What the hell took everybody so long to get that message out to me!! Well at least I'm going to see it now. What a great send off for George Harrison and I believe the guy in the back might just have been his son 🥰😘😘

I even had the opportunity at working one of the arenas where Prince was the performer for that evening. I wanted to see him, as many rumors were going around about how weird he looked, such as. people in my office, comedians making fun of the way Prince dressed and acted. So overall I would say here and there , I would hear derogatory statements made about anartist named Prince. So I had to go see for myself which I did and I thought he was outstanding 💥💯💥. So that's the unfortunate part of the story. I hope I cleared that matter up for you, and now he's gone 🙏 Today everyone says what a great musical genius he was.

If I remember the story correctly, Prince was supposed to do a solo midway through the song, but during rehearsal another musician up and decided he himself was going to play all the solos himself and Prince just kind of went along with it. There wasn't going to be another chance for a rehearsal with Prince so the director had a talk with him about what was going to happen and Prince basically told him not to worry about it, that he'll come in at the very end and to just let the other guy do whatever. That's why when he starts his solo during the actual show, he bursts out of nowhere and at times it's almost like he's mocking the other guy. But pretty much leading up to that, only Prince knew what he was going to do.

    Wanna know what I see? Prince didn’t reherse with the band because all he needed was the chords. Dhani cues Prince for the entrance, and Tom Petty conducts, letting Prince know when to cut loose and when to pull back. Prince tosses guitar at the end not in vanity, but respect for George Harrison being inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He had his fun playing and didn’t need the glory on George’s night. That’s what I saw. I could never watch this enough.

    • @cdub3019
      @cdub3019 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +115

      In the days after Prince died, the New York Times ran an article about the performance in which Petty and others who performed with Prince that night shared their memories. According to the paper, the show’s producer, Joel Gallen, asked Prince to play the song’s solos, since he was there to be inducted anyway. But during rehearsals, Marc Mann, who plays guitar with Lynne, took over, knocking out a note-perfect recreation of Eric Clapton’s original mid-song solo. “And we get to the big end-solo,” Gallen says, “and Prince again steps forward to go into the solo, and this guy starts playing that solo, too!”
      There wasn’t time to get it right, but Prince assured Gallen everything would be fine at the performance. He told the producer to let Mann take the first solo, and he would perform the extended outro solo. “They never rehearsed it, really,” Gallen says. “Never really showed us what he was going to do, and he left, basically telling me, the producer of the show, not to worry.
      “And the rest is history. It became one of the most satisfying musical moments in my history of watching and producing live music.”
      Though Prince is onstage the entire time, he stands off to the side until the end, when he takes center stage. From that point on, the show is entirely his. His slick stage move at 4:43 and his guitar face at 5:05 are as enjoyable as anything he plays...and he plays up a storm. The smile on the face of Dhani Harrison-George Harrison’s son, who plays acoustic guitar on the number-shows how much he was enjoying Prince’s star-turn on his father’s song.
      “You see me nodding at him, to say, ‘Go on, go on,' " Petty said. “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.’”

I think Prince was a very good lead guitarist, not great like Hendrix who shaped a style some of which can be heard in Prince's solo. I am not sure if you play guitar or not, I do. I can tell you that it is hard to drop in like he did and perform well. All I ever wanted to be was a lead guitarist because it is possibly the best example of living in the moment and making it mean something. It is what jamming is all about and I appreciate his ability and willingness to do so on a big stage. He in many ways embodied live performance by "real musicians' as he put it no matter the outcome. The break has a few very good moments and mostly is fitting to the song, like starting around 5:06. It is not the best lead break ever however and I know if he were here today he would say the same thing.

      @@meagainokay7673 Appreciate the link. If pull offs and arpeggios that never end is your thing then I guess it is okay. There are really two distinct lead playing styles out there: Ones that show off a player's proficiency and others that are from the heart. I prefer the latter. Not to say his lead break is bad. Note that he plays the same licks over at times however. No matter the complication, this a very taboo thing to do on a lead break. But even Prince does the same thing in places. So a technically proficient solo that lacks heart on a song that demands it is my take. I am not terribly impressed with either and I think I can do just as good or better in a particular moment, not to sound egotistical.

      just so so very sad isn't it. There are a few moments where Tom looked at Prince and smiled. So sad. Drugs are no joke.

    The solo Prince plays has got to be hands down one of the greatest guitar solos in the history of rock. I get chills every time I hear it. I just went to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and they have you watch this 15 minute video of HoF performances over the years. The last 4 minutes is Prince stealing the show. Brought tears to my eyes, especially how we don't have Prince, George Harrison, or Tom Petty anymore.

      I'm not a Prince fan - far from it even. But what he does here is excellent, not only the guitar part, but the "completely fitting in". He's clearly there to have good clean fun, no star stuff, just jamming with the guys & having a great time. Too bad we rarely saw this side of him, cuz it really really drives him to a completely new level. At times he even looks like he surprises himself, when he notices how well everything he does (even that one low part where he clearly expected a couple of clashing dissonants as a result, his face totally betrays him there) blends perfectly with everything else.
