did you know prince discovered guitar virtuoso eric johnson

eric johnson career rebounded in 1984 when pop superstar Prince caught one of Johnson's performances on the public television program Austin City Limits and recommended that Warner Brothers sign Johnson. They did, and 1986 saw the release of Johnson's major-label debut, Tones.
