That picture isn't from '88. Prince's hair has Dirty Mind written all over it.

Could you stop with that 'Rick James is dead & he sucks' shit. That's ignorant and disrespectful.
It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

I think its a shame that these two very talented musicians couldnt come together at least once for a colaboration. I believe it would've been a fire hot record.

The pic is obviously from late 81, during P's first leg of his Controversy tour. P wore this same outfit on that tour. Also, P wore his hair much curlier, like Rick's actually, in the front, on the second leg of the Controversy tour in early 82. This was probably backstage at an awards show, be it the Grammys or AMA. Especially going on the way the cat in the middle is dressed. Is that P's biz dude, Bob?

Yeah, I Prince's hair was longer when he was on tour with Rick. (very much like he had it in January 1980 on American Bandstand.

My first thought was Steve?

It's a VERY cool pic of Rick and P together. I've never seen it before. And it's a very rare thing to catch them together in a pic. Rick himself was wearing a tux, which I have never seen him wear before. So it was definately a more formal gathering than the Grammys or AMA's. Rick would have been wearing his stage clothes like P is in this pic.

Rick doesn't look to jazz in this pic either, does he?

Anyone have any pictures of Rick James with Neil Young. They were in a band together in the 60's that recorded for Motown. Rick taught Young how to properly play electric guitar.

Yeah, there was a thread about this and a pic was indeed shown.

Not at all. It was all part of his 3 day PSYCH OUT. I don't know if you remember, but his first words after being seen were. I WIN!!! and then he jumped around waving his arms in the air like he had just made a touchdown.

Just keeping you up on some Bible knowledge.

Wow, these are interesting. Anyone recommend any great RJ biographies? You don't hear Neil Young commenting on RJ too much in interviews. I wonder what their relationship was like when he died.
