Prince? never heard of him. he's not good enough to tune a real musician's guitar
prince was a no talent punk compared to the greatest guitar player .. EVER!
James Patrick Page.
more proof ..
Page is one of my favorites for sure. Angus Young is damn good too. Lots of great guitarists. You may not care for Prince, but he could flat out jam. Hey, have you seen Asswipe's dingleberry beret? He wore a dingleberry beret. The kind you find at the local gloryhole!

Angus Young is way overrated in my opinion, he's mostly self taught and it shows. for what AC/DC plays, that's good enough. he's not gonna out-solo Page, and probably not Prince either. No, Prince's music being mostly dance music isn't my cup of Tea but i did fire up a couple of his songs when i heard he'd died.
there's a reason the guy was worth north of $250 million, some report as high as 300M.
his career rivaled anyone's in the industry, at least anyone not named the Beatles, and they weren't that good early on.
early in the Beatles' career, George Martin, who recently passed away also at 90, much much older than Prince, had concerns the Beatles would never develop as song writers. well we know how that turned out now. The Beatles have all said at various points they weren't really good musicians at first, they worked at it to become better.
prior to the White album, most of the Beatles' songs were pure pop songs, but hey that was the music of the time back then. even they got tired of it and once they realized they could write any songs they wanted, their later albums were much better, no more pop songs.
beyond breaking away from formulaic pop songs of the day, one of the reasons the Beatles still stand over the rest, Led Zep, The Who, their old rivals the Rolling Stones, is because they were the first band to take control of their recording contracts and started Apple Records, unheard of at the time. of course Martin had a large hand in that as their manager.
it's kinda funny, all of the big 60's bands, The Stones, the Who, the Beatles, they all knew each and were for the most part good friends, despite their rivalry. they hung out and partied together .. and we know those guys could do some partying! How Keith Richards is still alive today is a medical mystery .. or miracle depending on how ya want to look at it lol.
Pete Townshend has admitted in interviews he hates Led Zeppelin, for one reason only .. they became the biggest band in the world, bigger than The Who. when the the Beatles quit, Townsend felt The Who should have become the biggest band in the world. well, the Stones might have something to say about that .. and Led Zep.
Townshend admits he's good friends with all the remaining members of Led Zeppelin, personally and has been for decades .. his ego couldn't let him get over their success.
Keith on Led Zep .. yep it's all about Jimmy Page. i certainly don't agree with his comment their music didn't take off .. but Keithy is correct, Page was the driving force of Led Zep's music.
and since this thread is about Prince, Let's Party!

Townsend's a cocksucker. Most of the great guitarists were self taught. I don't think Hendrix took lessons. As for the Beatles, meh. Give me Zep or the Stones any day. I've seen Clapton a few times, once with Santana. Carlos blew him away. I've seen ACDC a few times, Young lays down a good solo. Never saw LZ, wish I did. Seen Jeff Beck and Roy Buchanon, neither did much for me. Duane Allman and Dickey Betts had some great rifts. Eat a fuckin peach. I like Ron Woods. Bo Didley too. Bo knows guitars. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yeZHB3ozglQ

yeah, most of them were self-taught, including Page. he took a few lesson when he was young but he also was mostly self taught.
Townshend is a prig as they say in the UK lol. his ego is ginormous. he is an underrated guitarist, in my opinion, wrongly over shadowed by people like Clapton, and Beck.
both Beck and Clapton are overrated. Cream was great, but it was the three of them, Clapton, Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce that made Cream great. Beck is a mercurial flake. and overrated. and a temperamental asshole.
In his autobiography, Nick Mason recalls that during 1967 Pink Floyd had wanted to recruit Beck to be its guitarist after the departure of Syd Barrett[14] but "None of us had the nerve to ask him."[15] In 1969, following the death of Brian Jones, Beck was approached about joining the Rolling Stones.[12]
I did see Led Zeppelin, in 1977. twice. best rock show EVER. their rep as a live act was well deserved. Zeppelin was famous for not having the customary opening act at their shows. like who the fuck would want to try to open for them anyway yeah? lol.
at the Louisville show, they were way late getting into the airport in that rather famously anointed "Led Zeppelin" airliner they rented for the tour. bad weather in route had delayed them. so .. the 19,000 plus stuffed into Freedom Hall was getting a bit restless. they didn't get on stage until almost 9 pm, the show was supposed to start at 7:30.
they played a 3 and a half hour set, including a nearly 20 minute encore. the show didn't end till 12:30 am.
in the mid-80's, when Page was in the Firm with Paul Rodgers, he was the featured guest on RockLine, for those of us old enough to remember that show. i managed to get on air to ask Jimmy some questions, and i asked him as my final question if he recalled being very very late to start the show in Louisville in 1977.
he did. he said "Why yes i do! we were quite embarrassed for keeping you chaps waiting so long!" .. i replied .. "you played a three and a half hour set!" he replied " .. Well it was the least we could do for keeping you chaps waiting!" lol.
my brother was at one time a photographer and took this photo of Page when he was in the Firm.
he also got to meet Robert Plant and talk to him for about 20 minutes. got his autograph too. lucky bastard! lol
another one of my brother's concert photos .. you might recognize him ..
