PRINCE IS PLAYING REAL DRUMS AGAIN! I didn't realise, but Prince handles the LIVE drums on the following tracks:
A Million Days Call My Name Cinnamon Girl Reflection Congrats Prince - on top of everything else, you're still a great drummer! | |

Be careful about thinking that, I read somewhere that Morris Day and Bobby Z go uncredited as the drummers on the first two Prince LP's. I bet Prince can play the parts, but maybe it would take a few more takes for Prince to record them. ______________________________________________

Actually, having studied his drumming, I can tell that it's him...he has a very loose style, with fairly simple fills (a lot of snare) and is heavy on the high hat. | |

Do you agree that it doesn't really sound like him on "For You" and "Prince"?? It's a little too slick on some of the tracks for it to be him IMO. ______________________________________________

It's definitely Prince, listen to Crystal Ball, his drumming is tight on that one....I don't understand why so many people think Prince isn't a good drummer. Sure, Sheila, Michael and John are better, but Prince is a very good drummer. | |

He may do, but to me it sounds like he cut up someone's drumming on a computer...it may be his, it may not...either way it's a cutup sample. | |

I do agree that Prince is a good drummer. Of course there are better, but give credit where it is due. | |

WHY THE HELL WHEN PRINCE PLAYS DRUM OR GUITAR IT LOOKS EFFORTLESS... WHEN I PLAY IT LOOKS LIKE I'M STRUGGLING TO PLAY ONE CHORD. LOL | |
