I'll go with Sheila E. John Blackwell can do everything Sheila can do and more, he also has as much stage presence. But Sheila's not bad....for a girl Always cry 4 love never cry 4 pain | |

Dez played guitar. As for a drummer, it is either Michael Bland or John Blackwell. They were definitely the best out of all of them he has had. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

Sheila E for the rock and John Blackwell for everything else... I guess I like Blackwell the most. pull your cell phone out and call your next of kin; we're about to get funky | |

john blackwell for technique and sheila e. for performance/stage presence. | |

yeah, the drummer he had during Come & TGE is awesome
But at one time, I think he did make a differentiation between the two. Sheila E. does percussion John Blackwell and Michael B. do the drums had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone | |

"greatest choice" definitely goes to john blackwell, for many reasons
and no, this doesn't mean i think he's the best who's worked with prince | |

For his albums I think the best choice for drummer is Prince. | |

Wow. What a great critique of percussion skills. Blackwell, hands down, but Mike B. was awesome. | |

I'll die before I let U tell me how 2 swim And I'll come back again as a dolphin | |

It's always good to see Sheila E back there. John Blackwell is awesome. I like Bobby Z as well, looked good with the revolution days. |

John's great...spectacular even. But, I think Sheila's got him beat here! She's a true percussionist, which makes her I think just a tad bit better with regards to versatility of style. Sure, Mr. Blackwell has flawless technique. And, he's a showman for sure!! But, if you really think about it, he'd be a Lebron James to Sheila's Kobe Bryant! Sure, Lebron can ball!! But, Kobe is much more versatile a player. Who would you want taking the last shot in the closing seconds of the game? My choice would be...of course...Sheila E.!! Just my 2 cents. | |
