    ^^^ His guitar playing what I've always liked best about Prince. At the end there- where the heck does that thing go?? It's like it just vanishes

  • ^^^ I have seen Prince over 40 times and he never ceases to amaze me with his guitar playing. He will also blow you away when he picks up the bass.

    ^^^ Dave Rawlings, yeah! Him and Gillina Welch together- image

    Bloomfield- one of the best, gone too soon. Danny Whitten too which reminds me-

    Frank "Pancho" Sampedro, the great Crazy Horse rhythm guitarist with the green thumb. Long live the Horse!
