Remember when......

Prince stole the show with his guitar solo in the tribute to George Harrison. I think it was "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" when he was inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.

Just watched it again on DVD.....Unbelievable.....The way he was in the background and then just strode forward in his red bowler hat, nailed everyone's jaw to the floor, threw his guitar in the air and walked off stage.

Man..I love this guy!!!!

Correct he did, all the while playing his guitar. I love the shot of Dhani Harrison just staring at him with a look of of total admiration and worship!

Not quite

He leant back and it was his (then) guitar tech, Takumi, who supported him rather than the audience (and was also there to catch the guitar).

Great performance by Prince....I think the Beatles had to be an influence for Prince. especially Sgt Pepper.

Ah, technically, it was the tech who he leaned into.
