What We Miss the Most About Prince...

I rarely write about music because, let's face it, music makes us feel all emotional and that can be a broad range category, right? But, my friend Manny recently posted a video for us all to watch that just moved me so much, that I felt compelled to share it, and oh, yeah! It's REAL.

According to Andy Greene in a Rolling Stone article in April 2016, Olivia Harrison wanted to limit the performers of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" to only artists that only George knew. But, Prince insisted he wanted to learn how to play this song that he had not heard before for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2004 Induction, all in an attempt to play with Tom Petty, because one of Prince's favorite songs was "Free Fallin", by Petty. (Did anyone happen to notice Petty's purple shirt? An homage to the Purple One, perhaps? LOL!)

In this video, which was an excellently performed jam session to honor the late George Harrison, shows the Purple One in one of his finest musical moments, which only makes us miss him that much more. Anyone that wants to question Prince's talent, has never seen this performance. It's epic!

We lost many artists in 2016, but very few multi-faceted showmen. Hope you enjoy this video.  ...RIP... Prince!
