No Mayte? alright, that's cold. Prince might've moved on from her via adultery and deception by a horrible, stalking, conniving piece of work, but Mayte was still part of his 'spiritual development' or as i would call it 'being less sensible', he should've thanked her. but whatever. That's Prince.

It's an awards acceptance speech. I'm pretty sure mayte was stood next to him. So quick to judge aren't we? It was 1995. https://m.facebook.com/Pr...3399221841

I don't think so. He might've had a list back then, but working with Eve, Gwen and Sheryl weren't on his radar and Rave came out years later.

This has to be later than 1995 for the list Levi posted because Rosario Dawson is on there and she had her acting debut in 1995's "Kids" and she was only like 15 years old lol I doubt she would have made his list back then.

It's got Eve, Ani DiFranco, even Sam Jennings on too, so clearly it's from 1999/2000-ish. No offense to them, but I doubt they would've featured on such list years later.

Or because most of the folks on there are musicians. Alan wasn't. Could be.

Not all of them were musicians. He really had to have second thoughts for him to decide to cross Alan's name off the list. Lol.

Don't over think it. Alan responded to it today, and I posted it earlier in this thread.

No Vanity.

He crossed off Sly Stone too....that's more important IMO.

He crossed off "Stone" and added in hand-writing, "& the Family Stone".

That's not what makes it important IMO. It's important because Prince once expressed extreme disappointment upon meeting Sly. He said something like "never meet your heroes" or words to that effect.

Wait....fuck them where R "His Fans" on this list Oh Nevamind I see The "U"

I think Prince followed Ani quite closely for many years as she built quite the music empire herself and was never signed to a major label. They are quite similar in music making work ethic, philanthropy, touring, etc. they definitely inspired each other immensely.

Yes, I know. Generally, my point was a few of the names on here that aren't general influences and band members clearly date the list to 1999-2001.
