He's a darn good basketball player too... or so I've been told

So Jaime are you telling us that whenever Prince drives over to the courts on Alphabet street in his little red Corvette and starts playing basketball he parties like it's 1999 while wearing his raspberry beret, diamonds and pearls and singing 'Let's Go Crazy' in the purple rain?

I know .... that was bad, really bad.

That little walk down memory lane with the "Ventures" is gonna cost me a few bucks for some new CDs.


Glad I can be of assistance.

I thought Prince's solo rocked! He really hit the banger notes and made the guitar wail! (maybe past weeping by a bit). But any song that actually references, as its chorus, a guitar solo deserves to get shredded on, which is exactly what Prince just did.

Contrary to some of the opinions above, it appeared appropriate and even as if he was searching for a way out of the solo, but the song kept going or nobody else picked up the solo. For that song to end without a solo goign on would have been a poor showing.

If that were Clapton or Page, all the critics would be singing a different tune. And you haev to give Prince props for showign hsi dexterity on the git-box...

The Ventures' Don Wilson is from Tacoma, and he met Bob Bogle in Seattle. This area has been influential in popular music for a very long time, including progenitors of Louie Louie, The Fabulous Wailers.
