All of P's guitar work, from his first album to now, no matter the tone or effect he uses is dead on. The guitar work that he does on 99% of The Time, Mazarati, etc is dead on . The boy is the shit. Period. SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

For him to be playing like that at the age of 20? Boy hasnt missed a lick. He's still the greatest guitarist to this day.  | |

This thread is killing me!
It's so tough for me to choose because I like Prince the most when he's using his guitar PROMINENTLY in his songs. I am so appreciative of his genius with all of the instruments he can play, but I was OUTRAGED when a recent Rolling Stone overlooked him for their greatest guitar players of all-time issue. (I was even more angry when they didn't print my complaint letter...haha!) I said it to RS and I'll say it now...Prince gets overlooked as a guitarist by mainstream listeners and critics because he's TOO versatile. He doesn't HAVE to make the guitar the focus of a song...which is the simple, basic component of standard rock and roll. His refusal to make the guitar the all-the-time emphasis probably kept him from calling proper attention to how GENIUS we know he is with the AX!!! YEAH! Having said this, and while I love rhythm work, I love Prince the most when he's SHREDDING! Just off the top of my head, the opening riff to "When Doves Cry" is MIND-NUMBING. Who was it recently who said that he's still trying to figure out how to do that riff and can't? Famous guitar player said this! Maybe a ZZTop guy? Can't recall... Also, the final tirade of "Let's Go Crazy" is hot. I liked the "Chaos and Disorder" disc more than many because the guitar was so prominently featured. And we haven't mentioned his blues work. THE RIDE??? Pfft. I can't even talk about it... Keith/Kacey | |
