Re: Prince--Multi-Instrumentalist Hero Icon--Dead at 57
Yes! If anything good can come out of Prince's early death, that vast treasure trove of funky awesomeness will finally be seen and heard by mortal humans! Enough to release a full album a year for the next 100 years and more! http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/pri ... d=38766251Quote: Bremer Trust, the St. Cloud, Minnesota, company given temporary authority over Prince's estate, opened the vault to which only Prince had the code, KSTP-TV added.
Previously, Prince spoke openly about his treasure trove of music on "The View."
"One day, someone will release them. I don't know that I'll get to release them," he said back in 2012. "There's just so many."
The seven-time Grammy Award winner reportedly left behind a vault containing so much music his estate could put out an album a year for the next century.
"We could put out more work in a month than most people could do in a year or more," Susan Rogers, Prince's former recording engineer, told ABC's "Good Morning America."
Rogers added that the vault in Prince's Paisley Park home was a giant room with shelves that filled up quickly. The door to the vault was sealed with a large spinning wheel. Adds: the vault they show in that video is HUGE! And the shelves are all full. That's bigger than my house, easily. They have Mozart studies, and Bach studies. I think there'll be more than enough to fuel a few schools of Prince studies!

Re: Prince--Multi-Instrumentalist Hero Icon--Dead at 57
Johannes! O.M.F'n G!!!! What the hell was that? That was almost a transcendent experience of awesomeness. I'm a huge Prince fan (you may have noticed) but that was truly spectacular live!
"Can I play my guitar?"
Yes, you funky mf'er, kill it man!
And then 4:30 that OTHER solo. Damn. Sprinkle liberally with F bombs. The dancing rhythm section.
[Prince blows on his guitar to cool it down. 5:33.] Squee!
Bass groove at 7:00. Horns and then organ come in.
8:30. Rhythm guitar takes a ride. Clapping along. Prince out! Like a motherless child.
[Steve wipes off half the sweat Prince is wiping off.] Comments and hits play again! Saturday productivity GONE! Doesn't care.]
Thanks, Johannes! Lots more to come in the years to come!

Although I had huge respect of him I've never been much of a Prince fan, but when I see this I think maybe I should have been.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RC34ZcDiCag[/youtube] finally got around to watching this - man! Very cool - what a tight band and awesome version of this song. I have always loved Lenny Kravitz so the two of them together just works on like 1000 levels. very cool video - actually made me go and buy a couple of Kravitz albums...I owned them years ago, pre-digital music age, and lost them.

Virtuoso redefined, how about a 5-minute live bass guitar solo?

Y'know, I bet that Unpronouncable Symbol Guitar probably has great balance (the keel)
