      Ahhhh, he wasn’t that good. Everyone had plenty of years to hear exactly how good he was. This video is a perfect example. Yes, professional level and high quality. Also, very derivative, meandering, unfocused, repetitive and Strictly forgettable. Nothing special, or even particularly memorable. Prince certainly got his due as a musician, and then some. Could you tell this was Prince, if you didn’t know it already? No it sounds exactly like 10,000 other guitar players who also could play generic riffs like these for hours on end in their sleep. Prince’s songwriting and personality put him where he was. At the pro level, he was a very mediocre, if competent, guitarist.

      The worst cover of WLL ever. And a meandering, pointless solo, predictably pentatonic. Anyone who plays guitar knows this was forgettable and average.

      @@hkpr-ro6ui I know, and the dead giveaway is all the effects. Relies entirely on them for the flavor Super processed sound to make the stock licks sound cool. Now he IS pretty fluid - his gift showing through here - but it’s just major showmanship, really, more than anything related to his playing. I’m not trying to put the guy down. He was a major talent

      @@dougcameron6609 He was good but people comparing him to Hendrix or van Halen is absurd. He was indeed, in the main, a showman. He let himself down with all the effort he put into manufacturing his myth.
      The "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" performance at the 2004 Hall of Fame is a classic case: he claimed on his tour bus that he didn't know the Beatles Sgt Pepper album when it got played and his band members and crew were stunned that he didn't know it; he was invited to play the 2004 televised performance months before and was told which track; he claimed he'd never heard WMGGW before, despite him playing and performing several Beatles songs; he played low key in the rehearsals; then acted as though he spontaneously made up his solo on the spot although it contains motifs from the original.
      The truth is that it's inconceivable that he didn't know WMGGW just as he knew Whole Lotta Love; he practised like hell before the performance; this was his chance to out-perform Clapton who played on the original; he feigned disinterest in the rehearsal; he made the most of making an impact when it was televised; his security were on hand at exactly the right time to help with his planned fall back into the audience. It was all staged.

Prince did something here i never heard before and didn’t know could be done. Take a Led Zep song, make it funky, shred like a true guitar god and make it worthy. WOW! I bet Jimmy Page himself would like this.

      you might enjoy that led zeppelin promoted their first Los Angeles performance, at a converted warehouse out in Pasadena by sliding flyers advertising the show through the vents in the door of our aviation high school lockers. A pink strip of paper with a line drawing of a rose, because it was being held at the rose palace, the name of the band and concert time.
      everybody in the hallway was puzzled because it was going to be a concert with just one band nobody had ever heard of. I went to a beatlemanic I knew in school , who because he subscribed to a bunch of English fan newspapers, said he ha heard of them and they were supposed to be pretty good. The show made for good memories.

    But that moment at 2:34 when he stopped the solo and walked off with that pure Prince swagger, that's the moment when I jumped out of my chair and started screaming. "Oh my God, what did I just hear?! Are you kidding me?!" That was fricking otherworldy.

    It makes me laugh somewhat now, when I read all the comments about how great Prince is as a guitarist. I was introduced to him in 1982. I knew he was great then. Listened to everything I could get my hands on of his work ever since. But I also remember in school, some of my friends and some of my not friends, bashing him and anyone including me that liked listening to him. I turned into a closet Prince fan, but never stopped listening. I no longer hide the fact but acknowledge it proudly, and let anyone who cares to listen hear some of the great work that he has done that I have collected throughout the decades. It is just sad that he never really got the respect he deserved during the Purple Rain era, and he disappeared from the mainstream for a bit until he did the Super Bowl and reminded everyone that he was still there, and BTW, he is better than you all remembered.

And that's true every time -- every time -- he takes on another person's song, whether it's Joni or Dave Grohl or whatever. He knows that song as close as can you can get to the person who wrote it.
