Come Together at Coachella

Listening to Come Together from Coachella and the arrangement reminds me a bit of Fleetwood Mac's The Chain. Was Prince a Fleetwood Mac fan?

Isn't everyone? Prince covered Fleetwood Mac a few times over the years, so I think it's safe to say he dug them.

Haha I suppose so. Rumors is one of the best albums of all time for sure. Not a bad track on it.

There was an interview (might have been with Kevin Cole) where Prince spoke of Fleetwood Mac being an influence on him.

Prince played synths on Stevie Nicks' "Stand Back," which Stevie wrote using the melody from "Little Red Corvette." In stands to reason Prince listened to Fleetwood Mack.

He covered The Chain live in concert (with changed lyrics).
