Jesse plays guitar solo on a song jerk out,rhythm guitar is prince.jesse also plays on most of the songs on pandemonium. | |||

I have no secret info but it's always sounded not very Prince-y to me, being a more riff-centric song. In my head that sort of stronger slashing rhythmic playing is more JJ. But of course I could be wrong. you are wrong and prince have tons of riff laiden stuff.listen to the right hand of the guitar.listen to his attack.it's prince | |

Over bacon, what???Anyway, I think it was only Prince and Morris on "Cloreen". I only heard the drums and the bass. No guitar. If it had been, Jesse would've been on it too but who knows? | |

I can understand the confusion regarding this. You may have some additional information that I don't have. Mine is based on a personal interview with Jesse Johnson when he told me:
"(Prince) would do things like turn the solo way, way down like on My Drawers, there is a solo that is so fucking tiny, it’s like why’d you even have me do a solo? But that kind of stuff he did when I was there. It wasn’t like I left and he turned it down, he did it and we just accepted it. The Time was his shit, and he was in charge and he could do whatever he wanted to do, so I wasn’t going to sit and argue a lost cause.”
The tricky thing about this is that Prince may have replaced his guitar work. I don't know for sure. So much of the work done in the studio is shrouded in mystery. The expanded version of my book PRINCE and The Purple Rain Era Studio Sessions 1983-1984 was released in November 2018.

Methinks the Prince & Morris conversation has been highjacked by a Prince & Jesse argument... Oh well, it's OK as long as we're getting new info | |

I'm just saying, I think of riffy songs being mostly the domain of JJ. The "rock" songs on Pandemonium, for example. Even the stuff on the new O7 CD that is JJ has still got that distinctive style to it.
Not that it couldn't be Prince too, I'm not saying that. It could be either dude. I'm just saying that it's interesting because to me My Drawers "sounds like" a JJ song in that riffy way. No doubt Prince could have aped that style, or just arrived at it separately, if he wanted to. [Edited 12/14/11 7:57am] [Edited 12/14/11 7:58am] | |

all this argueing about Jesse has made him quit the band. The expanded version of my book PRINCE and The Purple Rain Era Studio Sessions 1983-1984 was released in November 2018. (www.amazon.com/gp/product/1538114623/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0) or www.facebook.com/groups/1...104195943/ | |

I'm pretty sure that he was up all night reading Prince.org's talk about his work and decided to inform the guys this morning that all of our fussin' and feudin' has made him want to get out of the group again. I can think of no other reason for his leaving! lol
Jesse: Guys, I'm done. Jimmy Jam: why Jesse? Jesse: The 'org. I'm tired of all the fighting. Terry: (shaking his fists skyward) PRINCE DOT ORG!!!!!!
