Aw man, Prince would totally wipe the floor with this guy. He's totally copying Prince's note bends! Didn't you hear the solo he did on "200 Ballons" on the "Purple Phantasy" boot in 88'? Prince played so fast the Earth reversesed its axis and actually went backwards in time a few minutes. Check the record. This guy is not worthy of being Prince's guitar tech. Prince rocks way harder! All roads lead to Prince, baby! Yeah!   [Edited 7/15/06 8:56am] | |

[Edited 7/15/06 8:56am]  I think the baseball cap is a ripoff too. Prince was the first to wear hats!  | |

Seriously though, Tony got a bad shake from the rock world if you ask me. Some people HATE to see brothas play like that. [Edited 7/15/06 9:12am] | |

i used to love this track!! 
of course the album version is better and if i'm correct George Lynch was featured on this song also. as far as the prince comparison goes i don't see it, if i'm reminded of anyone its yngwie.  | |

Tony Mac is a great player. I really used to check cats like him (and Greg Howe) out a lot back then. Great phrasing and technique. I met him back in 89 and he was really cool and down to earth. Glad he stopped wearing those horrible curl extensions. | |
