i dont see michael jackson as being an influence on prince, let alone a major influence. When i hear Prince's guitar playing, i hear more Santana than Hendrix, although i do hear Hendrix too.
Prince himself has mentioned Sly and James Brown most often. | |

The Ohio Players and Chaka Khan should be on that list somewhere.
