Shhh John Blackwell or Mike B.?

I've been watching the Shhh Harbor Fest performance that came on MTV, and it looks like Mr. Blackwell iz getting with Mr. Bland maybe even outdoing him on the song that Mike B. made help make great. What do y'all think?

I think Blackwell did an amazing job on that song, as he does generally. Loved P's guitar solo as well.

BUT:

Mr. Michael Bland still OWNS 'Shhh', and he always will.

Go Michael, go Michael, go Michael.... headbang

Michael B. all the way. He just holds it down better than anyone. John is a great drummer but a bit excessive on the beats for my taste. MB is still the best.

I agree with the rest of you. Michael B has so far been the best drummer Prince had. He just knew how to put it down when he played them drums. I remember when they picked him to replace Sheila E, I thought how are you gonna replace Sheila, but Oh Did He! Prince has a pretty good ear on the musicians he picks for his band and Mike B ranks top on my list.
