"Electric Chair" from SNL question...

I was watching old Prince video tapes and I came across Prince's kick-ass performance of "Electric Chair" on SNL in 1989.

As I watching I suddenly realized that I didn't recognize one of the band members.

Who is the white long haired man playing Prince's "Model C" guitar (The one with the distinctive tie bar)?

This guy reminds me of Phillip C. from Graffiti Bridge where he seemingly only showed up once and was forgotten.

So can you help me?

It's either Miko or Levi. Great choreography. Patrice Rushen on piano.

Okay I'm an idiot because it is Miko. I had to go back and check and now I feel a little embarrassed.


They never zoomed in on him and he sure looked white to me. What can I say I am colorblind I guess.

Yeah it was Margie Cox. I really liked her stuff as Ta Mara and the Scene... and the Flash MC sessions sounded like they could have really done something if they had been released.

Party Up...both performances were slammin.
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.
