Better Prince rhythm guitarist: Levi Seacer Jr. or Mike Scott I've been listening to "SexyMF" "Love 2 The 9's" and P's music from '91 and '92, and i'm looking at clips of Mike Scott on Rave Un2 The Year 2000 and Septimo and i think, Levi Seacer has better palying as far improvising, rhythm,and style, but Mike is better at soloing. What y'all think? 3121 #1 THIS YEAR |

I always thought Levi held the groove better. But both would smoke me onstage, so...

moderatorLevi without a doubt. Bass players tend to have better rhythmic timing than guitarists. Levi would smoke Miko on rhtyhm AND lead. | |

Neither.
Miko on the Lovesexy Tour. The stuff he and P played on the Nude Tour version of 1999 was great. (IMO) "The first time I saw the cover of Dirty Mind in the early 80s I thought, 'Is this some drag queen ripping on Freddie Prinze?'" - Some guy on The Gear Page | |

I liked Levi better as a bass player. I think Mike Scott is a better solo guitarist and can hold the grooves just as well as Levi. | |

People are confusing Mike and Miko.
The thread author is referencing Mike Scott: 
Not Miko Weaver:  The Normal Whores Club | |

The thread author is referencing Mike Scott: Not Miko Weaver: No, I'm not confused, I meant Miko Weaver (sometimes spelled Mico). And if I may speak for Giovanni777 & Carlcranshaw, I don't think they're confused either. Carlcranshaw said: Neither. Miko on the Lovesexy Tour.
and Giovanni777 co-signed. And I agree with them: I think Miko was a better rhythm guitarist than Mike Scott or Levi Seacer, Jr. See also this thread for Miko love: http://www.prince.org/msg/5/193029 Love me some Miko & the Lovesexy band.

That's right. No confusion here.
Miko Weaver was better than Levi and Mike Scott. Levi was better suited as bassist on the Sign Of The Times and Lovesexy Tour. (IMO)  "The first time I saw the cover of Dirty Mind in the early 80s I thought, 'Is this some drag queen ripping on Freddie Prinze?'" - Some guy on The Gear Page | |
