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!
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.
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.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡
He walked in, killed it, threw guitar, walked off stage...Legend!❤
Big pimpin’ 😂
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.
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.
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.
Prince's smile to the other musicians during his performance is EPIC!!!
He’s asking. ”More?” Add Petty nods.
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!
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 It shouldn't have. It was fitting and good.
@@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
🇬🇧 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.
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.
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.
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.
I always say that Prince’s guitar didn’t gently weep but cried for mercy. 😂❤🤘🏻
Still get chills when looking at Dhani in this video. He is the SPITTING image of his father.
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
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.)
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
@@mikemagoostherhythmdojo6064 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.
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, 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.
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 😢❤
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 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...
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.
Prince was a musical genius, unappreciated by his peers! May his beautiful soul rest in peace.
It's mainly because Prince was self taught. I'm not really sure he could even read music.???❤❤❤😂😂😂 I looked it up. No, Prince could not read sheet music. And learned to play instruments by ear.
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.
Seeing Prince and Tom Petty on the stage together is just incredible. I always get chills during Prince’s solo.
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...
@@mariajobson739 Queen too
I don’t know how may people truly appreciate what an amazing musician Prince was!
Uh, LOTS of people. He’s been famous for his musicianship for decades.
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 ???
@@mariajobson739 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.
@@mariajobson739. 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.
Prince was and always will be one of the best dressed men in the history of music.
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.
Prince is a master of every instrument, writer and composer ......MUSIC GENIUS!
You know it
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
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.
Prince is so talented, so cool.......RIP Prince thanks for making my life better.
Love this ❤
Prince absolutely SHOWED OUT!! RIP to an absolute legend!
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.
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.
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.
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...
czcams.com/video/8F_IX4b85y8/video.htmlsi=JUSbXht8wsFpzSMs
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!
The young man next to Tom is George's son ... this is a tribute to George Harrison.
Stephen Lawrence Winwood (born 12 May 1948) is an English musician and songwriter whose genres include blue-eyed soul, rhythm and blues, blues rock and pop rock. Though primarily a guitarist, keyboard player and vocalist, prominent for his distinctive soulful high tenor voice, Winwood plays other instruments proficiently, including drums, mandolin, bass and saxophone. He played with Clapton in the 60s.
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 didn't just solo, he broke the song. Incredible.
He did justice to the song. George wrote it to make way for such an expression.
@@jp3813exactly
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
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. 💜
My dad died about 6 months after Prince, and I replicated his outfit from this video for my daddy's funeral.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤
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
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!
Love that George Harrison’s son Dani is playing with them, he looks so happy and why not his father wrote and sang this song, way back when, I was in either my late teens early twenties when I heard it. Great song and this performance is outstanding!!!!!
It’s spelled *Dhani. It’s an Indian name.
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!
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!
He wore pumps cuz he was short. He was so fine! And so frickin talented.
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 ☮️
Could not click play fast enough. One of the BEST performances ever!
Oh, and many congratulations on your new baby girl!
Jeff Lynnes voice and harmonies with Tom are amazing.
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
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
@@mariajobson739
Mark * _Knopfler_ *.
That young guy in there is Dhani Harrison, son of Beatles guitar player George Harrison who wrote this song and was great friends with Eric Clapton whom GH brought into a Beatles session to do the guitar solo for this song. George was also besties with Jeff Linde and Tom Petty who were also in the Traveling Willburys with George. Dhani was 16 when his dad died and Tom took him under his wing a bit to help Dhani with some of the diminished chords that George was famous for. George had already taught Dhani how to play and he is good! He looks so much like his dad here at maybe 17? Not sure when they did this. George was 15 when he joined the Beatles!
Prince is the ultimate showman.
Reason Jeff and Tom are performing together, they were in a band the travelling wilburys together with George, Bob Dylan and Roy Orbitsen. Another good one to check out.
Roy * _Orbison_ *
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.
This was Price’s response to not being included in Rolling Stones magazine’s top 100 guitarists.👍💕🦇
Prince wore heels because his recorded height has him at 5' 3". He seemed much bigger than that with his amazing talents. He wrote all his songs and hits for others. Played many instruments. Also a star basketball player in high school. Loyal Jehovah's Witness and very loyal to his home state of Minnesota. His studio Paisley Park is located there as well as his residents. Prince bucked convention and we all loved him for it.
Yes he was Jehovahs Witness as was MJ...well coming from family that are of the same faith ...the church must have forgiven some of there on stage antics and off stage because they are very strict . You do not promote the sexuality like they both did in their dance moves ,especially Prince. They must have been donating some heavy money to have not been turned away from the church that's all I can figure...
This was Prince giving Rolling Stone magazine a big eff you for leaving him off their list of 100 greatest guitarists!!!
NOBODY puts PRINCE in a corner!!!!
I saw what you did there.
@@higgme1ster 😋😋😋😋😋
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.
This stage has some of the most epic musicians EVER and it is perfection ❤
Loved it!!!! This song always tears me up. Jeff Healey does a tear jerking version of this.
Yeah check out his playing chops and he's BLIND and not smug!
RIP Jeff Healey.✌️
Guitar drop instead of mic drop! The young guy beside Prince was Dhani Harrison, George’s son(looks just like him)! He was loving Prince’s playing his dad’s song! I love this video! BP Prince wore heels cause he was only 5’2” 😂😂 Thanks for doing this one! ❤️🔥✌🏻🫶🏻
George’s son loved Prince so yeah his reaction is gold!
@@taramama6658Dhani was actually rude about Prince after the show & said his playing was " gratuitous " .. it was very tense backstage as Prince had been asked if he wanted to rehearse & declined saying he would just show up & play . This was because George Harrisons wife didn't want Prince to play at all as he wasn't a close family friend . Prince found out , played anyway & blew everyone away . Most of the ad libs towards the end by Tom Petty were improvised . It was an amazing tribute & i think personally Dhani could have been a little more gracious . I am sure his dad would have enjoyed the show .
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.
So awesome for Dhani Harrison to be playing with all these icons to honor his dad. I also the love videos of him playing in the studio with George ❤
This song always makes me melt! And the *epic talent* on stage is “beyond words”!! 🤘💜
Fire, fire, fire! One of my favorite things to watch. Prince kills that guitar!
Dhani Harrison is George Harrison's son, the man who crafted this masterpiece. He invited Prince to be on this collab because Rolling Stones magazine left prince off the list of the 100 best guitarist in the world. This was his throwing the middle finger up at their azzes to make them regret not giving him his flowers...
That was like watching a movie with an all star cast. You just know that your in for a epic performance
You should DEFINITELY check out Prince's Superbowl Halftime show performance. One of the best live performances ever!!!
Stevie Winwood joined The Spencer Davis Group ("Gimme Some Lovin") at 14 years old. Check out their 1963 video of "Nobody Knows When You're Down and Out". Stevie was 15.
Look this story up. Prince didn't attend rehearsal. They didn't even know if he was going to show up. He did and did him. 💜🤙🏼
I read that he was asked to rehearse and told them he didn’t need to rehearse, he’d just come out play. They were like “alright”.
I did not know that, but actually does it surprise me, no -- LOL
Hmm. If a musician knows the song and as in this case in all likelihood his fellow musicians, then there should be no need to rehearse.
@@Athena621 Rehearsal for musicians of their caliber is about who sings what parts, timing, etc.
@@michaelheck1257 "Of their caliber" ... Skilled musicians can have a quick conversation about the who/what/when and agree one lead.
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.
Steve Wingwood ,teen music prodigy part of three bands in the 60’s The Spencer Davis Group,Traffic, and Blind Faith.Musician songwriter been performing since age 13.
Dhani Harrison is the son of George Harrison from The Beatles, there is being accepted in to the Hall of Fame at this event, among others.
Quick FYI. Dhani Harrison is the son of Beatle George Harrison who was the member of the band who wrote the song. Steve Winwood is playing keyboards closest to the drum kit. Also B.P., it ELO is an acronym for the band's full name "Electric Light Orchestra" and is generally pronounced "E", "L", "O". Cheers, sir!
Thank you. These were exactly my thoughts!!
Great reaction to an amazing song, but More importantly, congratulations Dad!❤
Thanks for taking my suggestion.
Steve Winwood was on keyboards. A legend in his own right, he started as frontman at 16 and had a long career in different bands, including the Spencer Davis Group. Google him and you'll find many many bangers!
Got to see Prince live 2nd row floor. I was waiting to hear ‘turn out the lights’, and he said it! A total bucketlist moment. Arena went jet black and he tore into Whole Lotta Love by Zepplin in the darkness..imagine..
That had to be a thing of beauty! So glad you caught it!
I have watched this a million times! It still brings us tears to my eyes❤❤
I'm always blown away by this performance and I will always miss Prince RIP 🙏 thanks for doing this reaction!❤
💜🕊🙏
Steve Winwood is the white guy on the keyboards he was in Traffic, Blind Faith and The spencer davis group as well as solo. Dhanni harrison is the young kid on guitar and the son Of Late Beattle George Harrison who there honoring
This is a mic-drop moment to the guitar community for Prince. I think he garnered respect as an artist, but he emerges as a Guitar God here
I love this. I still can't get over how much George Harrison's son looks like his dad. Legends never die because of the music they left behind.
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.
These are members of the Travelling Wilburys with George Harrisons son, great Super Super group
The kid on Tom Petty's right is George Harrison's son and he specifically requested Prince for this tribute to his father. The rest of them had no clue what they were getting. I consider this the best guitar solo of all time. This guitar solo literally makes me cry.
Prince was been known to give his guitar's away after big events like this. He had a roadie in the audience to catch his guitar. He usually gives it away to someone. I think this one went to Harrison's son.
I read that he told the roadie to give it to Oprah, who was in the front row. She gave it back to him later.
I honestly can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched or listened to this. It’s PURE GOLD!!!!! Incomparable! I’ve never heard this without involuntarily saying “WOW” to myself. Incredible performance.
Prince, there is no questions need to be asked if he's not in the Top 10! And my man Jeff Lynn is Awesome all by himself!
