Are they still close or what?

i think they lost touch by around the mid 80s, but i dunno if it was a bitter parting or not...

theres mutual respect between these two badass musicians...trust me...i know

I know they have had their differences in the past but I think they both love and respect each other. Andre was definately the baddest musician to ever come from the Prince camp. They are so much alike, I doubt they still keep in touch....it would be non stop fighting. They remind me of one of those divorced couples that loved each other once, got divorced because of differences, and still can be best of friends from a distance.
