John Blackwell is the drummer please give him his credit and may he rest in peace. So sad.....he joked before he passed because he'd been sick that Prince probably wanted a drummer in heaven, but said he wasn't ready yet. Let's home they're keeping it funky in heaven.

Prince is our Mozart, he mastered over 20 instruments by age 17, he could dance, sing any note, rap, he wrote, arranged, performed ALL his music, including wrote hits for other artists, he has covered almost every genre, Metal, Punk rock, hip hop, pop, r&b, soul, jazz, blues, country, ambience, classical, instrumental. The Multi-Genre God. He could play anything, and your favorite artists have been deeply influenced by him. Corey Taylor, Whitney Houston, Steve Vai, Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Lil uzi vert, H.E.R. , Paul Mccartney, all worship Prince to just name a few. Prince recorded his first 2 albums at 16 all by himself, all instruments, lyrics, arrangement, composition & vocals were all by him. He was such a prodigy, that music executives wanted proof, they would fly across country just to see if he could really play all instruments, because it was so unheard of. Prince has over 50 official released albums and when he passed, they found over 10 thousand unreleased Prince music in his vault. He then came into the business and was the FIRST to fight for artists rights, and he WON. He would write "slave" on his cheek and go to meetings protesting against the industry. Prince was also the first artist to sell his music on the internet. You are talking about the most talented artist we will ever see.

Prince was always concerned about his audience having a good time at his shows. He would say that they paid their money to come see him and he wanted to make sure they left feeling they had an experience they never forgot. He always gave 110%.

I saw him 5 times…best was a show at Metro in Chicago from 1am - 4am after he had already played his main gig at the Chicago theater. 20 bucks cash at the door and we only waited in line for an hour. One of the best nights of my life. Played covers, hits and brought up Buddy Miles to do Them Changes. Legend.

Damn I miss this man so much… had the chance to see him live 15 times, and every single show was outstanding and standing out from the rest… when he died my biggest fear was that I would find every concert I would go to to be quite lame… and unfortunately it’s mostly the case… being exposed to greatness from an early age is a blessing, but also a curse when greatness goes away!

That lead guitar playing work is unbelievable, the tone, doesn't miss on a note and the consistency in the MUSICAL phrasing… he just cooks nonstop. He's better than Clapton. Not a Clapton fan, he's just way more interesting than anything I ever hear Clapton do. He's as good as anybody but he chooses to be an entertainer first, and that's impressive.

Clapton was a huge fan. He actually said Prince’s music “saved him” in the ‘80’s when he was going through a dark time. Elton said he was the best performer he’d ever seen live. Dave Grohl, Gene Simmons, Robert Plant, Bono, Paul McCartney, Joe Satriani, I could keep going. All have said in interviews how great a musician he was.

I was wondering if any of you could wear forearm sleeves with your first name on it and wear boots with the fur? And look cool?😎 This was just another day at the office for the purple Yoda. I've only seen him 4x and I've heard some people were fortunate enough to see him in over 100 concerts. But the one who was at every concert was Prince, since 1979 he has performed live concerts approx. 1,500 in a span of 37yrs which is 40 a year or so. That's not counting any one-offs, guest appearances, after party shows, tv shows and award shows. That is so impressive to me. He always surrounded himself with very good bands and they worked their butts off. Prince had a work ethic second to none and pushed his bands to have rehearsals long hours at a time. John Blackwell Jr. is probably my favorite drummer in all his bands, he had just a mean sound that only comes with practice. Ida Nielsen on bass, Renato Neto on keys, with Cassandra O'Neal on keys, Shelby, Elisa, and Liv his backup vocals and the Twinz his dancers. Great tour that had lots of energy and a fun atmosphere. Good choice fellows

So glad y'all reacted 2 this always amazing concert. I read that this was #5 encode. Ida Neilson on bass. Not Rhonda Smith. Ida was also in Third 👁 Girl. Great R&R. 2012-2015.Next PRINCE went solo, just a piano & a Mic . Both Rhonda and Ida played in the NPG. Dude with the hat, talked too much, over the performance. No one else did that, like pause or preferably just wait until the end. Perhaps then he might of seen/heard the difference btw Ronda and Ida. Both really great but different styles. JS. BTW Michael Bland and John Blackwell, both Amazing !!! 💯🎶
