I understood that you thought Bill Connors was much better -- and hence my comments. He is so much better that you have no interest in posting on his work in a jazz forum. And you are the one with a hurt soul -- or you won't be harrassing everyone who disagrees with you or calls you out. And just a reminder that Prince.org doesn't belong to you. Enjoy that Prince Covid mask... seems more your speed than his music.

no it's not what i think.it's what i hear .Bill is not better than Prince on guitar.he is much better ,he devoted his life to that instrument.the only one harrasing me here is you.you are the only orger following me on other topics and remind me of what i wrote here.yes org is free so you can give your contribution to other topics cause it seems u have problem with this 1.

There is help available... you need it.

you camp on the topic i created and i need help? First of all you discuss techniqual aspects of the instrument and u don't even play. Visit some other topics that are more in touch with what you believe? Can't u see that my topic is toxic.are u a masochist? Lol

You seem to really enjoy it... because nobody is forcing you to respond. And you have harassed plenty on this thread. Twenty years posting about someone you find to be medicocre musician -- nope, you are the one who needs help.

I think the question should be: is Prince overrated outside of the Prince fandom? Majority of people I come across won’t name anything beyond purple rain, and will look at you sideways if you say he was a gifted guitarist and one of the best rhythm guitarists that ever lived. Bittersweet as it is, it took his passing for the younger crowd to show intrigue, but majority of the people around my age weren’t really checking for him.

I never trust anyone who regards him as “ok”, especially if they’re musicians/hardcore listeners, I could let it slide if they were general music listeners, but that crowd? Nope! Best of luck, sweetie.

what is your problem? Just because somebody was not a pop star don't mean he ain't good or better than Prince.if you think that Prince was the best guitar player in the world u are seriously deluded and why you even discuss Prince the musician when it's obvious that u are not a musivian and have no clue what others are discussing here.I already told you take your masochistic ass somewhere else .and really this is the last time i talk to u u sad sad little fan boy.

The OP's favorite guitarist -- not that he contributes to his legacy in any meaningful way on appropriate jazz forums with fellow appreciators.

The OP posted video of Bill Connors -- seems very disappointed that Prince didn't take lessons from him.

Hamad just ignore Moody.Moody is my groupie,my fan boy.he she or it lives on this thread and even though he have no clue about what the subject is here ,Moody is going to give his 2 cents by confronting anything i say. His heart is broken because guess what Prince ain't the best guitar plaer in the world and u wanna bet he will replay as soon as he see notification that there was a response in this thread.

No such thing as a best guitar player in the world. And thanks again for providing music for those times when one can't sleep. Zzzz...

Over to you.

Prince is a good musician, no doubt, but he is far from the best...what makes him special is the whole package..(dancer,singer guitar-player). u just need to go to youtube/Facebook to hear/see whats lot of musicians are capable of...normal people..anders n many cases the play not just one instrument...

And for those who think reading notes is not important , have no clue. Maybe they never played an instrument. Just for the simple fact, when u got a pool of 50 songs u want to play and u change them every now and then, reading notes is so helpful. A human cant remember all notes exactly. There comes a point, where people play not whats should have been played...
