Mike Oldfield is pretty gifted, can play nearly every instrument like Prince.

Bob Dylan.

He may not play all instruments like Prince, but he's a far superior song writer, even after 40 years. He also treats his fans well and releases all kinds of music and plays concert all over the world on a regular basis.

Sure, he's not the showman that Prince is, but he's as talented, if not more so.

paul weller. great singer/songwriter/musician..snappy dresser & sex appeal razz
i think also born 1958..
but prince has edge over sex appeal factor as weller is a bit of a caveman.
oh & they both have major respect in the music world, role models etc..

Highway 61
Blond on Blond
Time out of Mind
