Chaos & Disorder 20th anniversary podcast / your favorite Prince guitar...

http://ow.ly/2DWa30258Tn

I had the privilege of recording my 3rd Prince podcast with grown folks music for the 20th anniversary of chaos and disorder which is today, July 9th. This time around Ivan Orr, Ricky Wyatt, and I were all honored to be joined by Arthur Turnbull of The Music Snobs.

Some of the questions we grappled with were:
What are prince's top 3 guitar albums, guitar solos, and rhythm guitar parts? If someone was beginning to learn guitar, what Prince albums would you recommend they start with? What about intermediate players?

I'd love to hear from you about your picks.

Well, ya did ask for intermediate players, so I assumed that's what you meant. All the lists were tough to compile when limited to three.

And I had never listened to the Scandalous Sex Suite much over the years, but about 7 or 8 years ago I sat down and listened to it, when people were raving about that solo. That's when I found new appreciation for it.
