pink floyd's dave gilmoure on prince and michael jackson I saw Michael Jackson in an indoor arena in America, and it wasn't great. When I see something like that, I think, My God, put 'me' in charge for a week and I'll turn this into something 'good'! There's no doubt in my mind that I could have turned something like the Michael Jackson show from a pretty average to pretty damned good, given a few days and bucks. There are corners that can be cut and corners that can't - just a million little details that one could look at. But I went to see Prince at Wembley and he was bloody good.
He definitely does things from the right attitude; I think he goes out of his way to get the best people to do the best job, and he thinks about every detail. He gets people around him who share his belief that it will come right if you get it right, which is our attitude. q magasine 1990 | |

Actually, it's quite hard to find musicians that don't like Prince. He gets props from all walks of life: jazz musicians, rock legends, hip-hoppers, folk artists... you name it. Even if they don't like his personality or his beliefs, it's rare you will find serious artists that deny his musicality.
