    Dr. Fink is the only Revolutionary who also played with the NPG. In fact, the scrubs he wears these days are NPG-era scrubs.

    It's funny to see them analysing Prince's work. That's how far it has gone. Prince worked in ways that I believe no one has. Completely on a different level..especially producing.

    To have been able to work that closely with such an musical genius as Prince is truly incredible. There will never be another artist to compare with him. Bobby Z. and Dr. Fink are legendary musicians and as genius as the rest of the Revolution. I am filled with abject jealousy of their experiences with Prince. The day will come when U 2 must choose. Look 2 the dawn and U will never lose. May U Live 2 C the dawn.

    "No days off!" lol. Yes, I remember that all too well working with him. We created and recorded around the clock on a couple session days. He makes you work, but teaches you along the way.

    Dr Prince Rogers Nelson 😎😊 the love and respect these guys talk about him has always been there even before he passed. Every music university in the world let alone the USA should have members of The Revolution or NPG talk about the input and output of this incredible boy/man. Prince was an indeterminent genre all on his own. So it's frustrating when you open music books and The Rolling Stones James Brown Elvis Jimmy Hendricks etc are there but not Prince. He didn't and wouldn't fit into any genre totally. Dr Nelson deserves every quality accolade going. Legacy now is key 💜

    now i am convinced that Prince Rogers Nelson would be equal as Leonardo Da Vinci after 500 years and would be still be studied cause this is too deep to describe...Musicians and historians would have a great job to analyse....now its impossible but Prince will be analysed from his vault and sources out there

    Weird to see kids taking notes! If this were a drum or keyboard clinic, it would be completely different. They have no idea about these guys. I’m sure their parents would have killed to be there instead.

    It was great to see that the kids were encouraged to take notes, but I dont think that they got as much out of Bobby and Matt's visit compared to the experience they would have had if they were to just listen and interact with them. From the speakers perspective, it looks like they were a little annoyed by it. Maybe next time visitors come to speak you should just record it on video so that the students can really engage with the person/people who are there sharing their experiences with them. Let the kids take notes when they watch the video later. Also, there was a lot of distraction with the rustling notebooks and people walking on the stage behind them, etc. Otherwise, it was awesome to see more individuals who were so close to Prince coming to speak to the students. Please don't take what I have said as criticism...I'm just making a suggestion that I think would be more beneficial for the students (and the speaker) later on in similar situations. Thanks for sharing this awesome moment though, and, keep up the good work.

  • @reginafris6822
    @reginafris6822 Рік тому

    Here's a suggestion: give the presenters laptops, connected to a Smartboard, so they can show the kids what they are talking about when they answer questions. It will hold their interest a lot longer. Like show them the Linn Drum Machine options, and how Prince programmed parts of songs. It would have also been cool for them to show excerpts from the First Avenue Benefit concert in August of '83, which is a short concert, but highlights many of the things they are talking about....songs like Electric Intercourse being played live for the first time, along with Purple Rain, and it's a 100 degrees inside the club, yet Prince is still a human 1000 watt bulb everybody is trying to catch up with.

    WAS and IS a TRUE GAME CHANGER for music and is TRULY ONE OF A KIND!!!!! That goes with ALL of the band members that HAVE/HAS the TALENT and GIFT to be ACCEPTED and HOPEFULLY appreciated by Prince. I KNOW you guys were because the Revolution never changed ...Prince just changed with his progression of his music style and his maturing and growing with the CORPORATE ASS music industry. YOU BETTER KNOW>>>>the "Powers" to be in music sets the weak minded individual and the ways of the world as for what is "HOT", " HAPPENING" blah blah blah. Music should ALWAYS grow and change and be CREATED BUT!!!!!!!! Not by what the G'vment or the "POWERS" to be unfortunately DIRECTS the weak minded in which direction to live there life and focus on the ways of the world. Shit happens but you DON'T GLORIFY SHIT!!!!! MOST is BLOWN UP to make people REACT!!!!! THINK about THAT and get back to me if needed! None the less....PRINCE and The Revolution ROCK!!!!!!! ALL TIME FAVORITE ARTIST!!!!

    Sounds like Prince was manic. Never gets tired???? Didnt drink or drugs just music, music, music! You know your superstar when all the interviews they ask other people you about you. Ha! Ha! So what was it like to work with Prince, How was your relationship with Prince. They never ask Prince how you like your ex band members?

    If they didn’t do it, they should’ve shown these kids videos from Prince and the revolution prior to this panel so they would know who is talking to them. It feels like they don’t have a clue they are getting knowledge from the greats that worked with the greatest

    How to AVOID answering the question. Prince supposedly was a task master, a tyrant, and insensitive.

    He’s always been known as Dr Fink so the woman stating his name is Matt was completely unnecessary and kinda rude to the person doing the introduction. The background noise in this is pretty bad. If you’re gonna do an interview maybe prepare better next time.
