This thread is utter cack.
Its almost as pointless as my What if Prince had a tail thread - but that was a cack joke - this is just plain irrelevent bollocks; summed up perfectly with some imaginatively-titled dude called jacktheimprovident saying: 'Prince is short, Hendrix was tall' Fuckin inspired. Anyways, what if Prince had tentacles and instead of going for a shit bubbles just flowed out of his ears? Would you still wanna be his lover?

No, I wouldn't. Would you still wanna be a newbie? "New Power slide...." |

 "
Plus neither can move like Prince, or play guitar as well as Prince does. I've never seen bowie's moves and stevie's blind give the man a break  | |

Why people want to compare different people...
Prince is an amazing artist, a genius... The greatest artist of the last 25 years...Nothing to say... Bowie is so far more eclectic than Prince and less commercial.... Stevie is ... How can I say... the Messiah of american black Music...Nothing compares to him... His influence is everywhere... Every black artists are/were influenced by him.... Jimi Hendrix for Rock is what James Brown was for Soul music... [Edited 3/3/05 2:41am] |

I can see this thread taking a sharp turn in another direction already.

And while we're comparing. How about Prince to another Jimmy....Page that is. I think you could find some definite correlation. Page kicks ass by the way. I have always liked him more than hendrix. "Life is just a party and parties weren't meant to last"

Don't get me started on THAT one by the way. (see avatar) I can't compare Page to Prince though. SOOOOO different in my opinion. Page is my favorite, for many reasons. He can be very sloppy at times, but as a composer, producer, and just for being such a badass emotional, aggressive, expressive, and downright evil player, he holds me in awe. What a showman. He can be BRILLIANT when we wants to be. Prince is such a "clean" player compared to him, that I really can't compare. Page is the quintessential hard rock guitarist, next to Hendrix of course.
On a side note, ever notice that the riff from Prince's "Calhoun Square" is the exact same as Zeppelin's "No Quarter"?  Just a random rambling on my part....
But this is off-topic, so I'll  now.[Edited 3/5/05 6:11am] "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

[Edited 3/5/05 6:11am] I'll stick to the topic too. Some very good comments though. I think the biggest similarities would be in the pure attitude they both play with. I love Page in all of his rawness. That's part of what makes him one of the coolest guitarists to ever live. "Life is just a party and parties weren't meant to last"
