Sheila E. is a very talented percussionist.
She inspired me to take up percussion.
The first time I saw her perform was on the AMA'S(either it was 84 or 85)
She tore uo those timbales.
I told my parents I would like to have a set of timbales,because I knew there wasn't enough money for a full drum set.
Thanks Sheila for your inspiration.

very cool!!!

I think she's very underrated, The Glamorous Life is the most cool album I don't have. I will get it, soon.

Thanks for sharing Starcat!Great Pics!
I use to own The Glamorous Life Lp! I want to get that one again.
I know the one stand out performance I saw was Prince performing "Sign O' The Times" at the VMA's (I think).At the end of the song Sheila E. leads a drumline through the audience and up onto the stage.Later,Prince,Sheila,and all talented others performed "Play In the Sunshine"

yeah he does that a lot.....ehhhhermmmmm...MAYTE

Sheila is very talented and still looks good for her age but i really dont think her and Prince would make a hot sexy couple like Mani and Eric Benet. Musically they are compatible but I think they do better as two separate musical entities and as friends. When two people get together they either click or they dont click and you know it right away! That's how it was with my hubby. They tried having a relationship 20 years ago, maybe it just wasnt right and they decided they would be better as friends? It happens alot but its cool they have remained friends all these years. I wonder if Sheila ever wanted children?
