Top 5 guitarist, top 50 pianist ,top 10 dancer, top 10 drummer, top 50 bassist,top 5 vocalist of all time ,top 5 entertainer of all time,top 5 greatest live performer of all time . Top 1 for being a pioneer in independence an ownership of your masters , 1st to use internet as a means to get his music heard,i could go on all day am night, this is all just my opinion but PRINCE stands alone as the goat ... littrely no one compares to him...
People dont understand that prince was never a singer. He was a human instrument He sang like his guitar and melody like his piano. That is why his way of singing was so unique.
Not just his singing, but him in general. He was way ahead of his time not just musically but he was wise to the "industry".. That's why his estate has all hia music still.. He never "sold out".. If he needed too, he could play and record everything himself
Sadly the narrow mindedness of rock fanz cant get prince coz what he wears but baby that aint mine or prince's problem, yes hands down i would like to be in prince's shoes just 4 1 track
I have seen Hendrix( Devonshire downs) in late 60's. I have seen Steve Vai,Carlos Santana, Eddie van Halen, Neal Schon. Jimmy Page, Roy Gallagher,Jerry Garcia, and I have seen this man, Prince. Gotta say he is often in my mind as the greatest guitarist of our time. What a gift this man gave to us so freely. Absolutely epic work effort to deliver that gift for all of us to enjoy and savor always. Bless you Prince forever and a day. Xo Ziggy
I feel the same.. I've seen some greats also.. And some newer metal gods... But Prince is untouchable when it comes too jam sessions or literally playing any instrument
Nobody is touching Prince musically, not in a million years. Brotha, was above the stars and channeling frequencies, vibrations and Colors directly from source. One love in the sky and Prince will never die because his music is reverberating in the multiverse forever.
I would say an 'extension' of himself.. but as a professional musician (lead vocal/Guitar of DUNGAREE DOGS NYC) I know exactly what you mean. ❤❤❤🎼🎸🎼❤❤❤
As a singer and a musician...I can say that Prince didn't go down to the cross roads to make a deal.. Any deal he made..you can rest assured that they came to his house and brought cheese 🧀, wine 🍷 caviar and, his MASTERS. I will always say that Prince Played like a MAN POSSESSED by A GUITAR 🎸, or A GUITAR POSSESSED by a MAN 😮😮😅😂..
He is such an amazing musician and human being. I am a grown ass man and I miss him so much. A part of my life is missing without him. I just want him to come home. He can do it, if there was a need for him to come back for us to heal he can do it. I think God would bless him to come back. I’m so wishful thinking right now
I live 15 min from Paisley Park. Every day I hope I will see him on his bike, or have him come to my house to talk about Jehovah. A few months before he left us, the witnesses came by my house. I told them I would invite them in for as long as they would like- if they brought Prince with them. They said they would. I believe one day he will be here.
@@rishibeauty8889 that’s an awesome story. I’m so jealous of you right now. 15 minutes away. I’m trying to save my money now to go visit the greatest one ever. God has blessed him beyond comprehension. I’m trying to sort it out in my my mind now
I completely understand exactly what U R saying.. I feel the same.. His music was the soundtrack to my life.. Now, I am lost & feel the Most alone than I ever have.. Peace 2 U
No other musician in this world touches my soul and my emotions like PRINCE! No one else makes me sing and dance, lough and cry to the music like PRINCE ! He was the greatest of all time. The Montreux Show 2009 , especially „Empty Room“ always blows my head off…
He was such a fucking badass… a guitar god that never got praised enough for his playing. This actually got me emotional watching him shred and knowing he’s gone way too young
Don’t his purple badness distract you from the fact that the man was a guitar playing motherf*****!! Not to mention drummer and keyboarder and horn player and….every damn thing!
Prince was the total package. He could sing, dance, write, produce, and play multiple instruments. I'm terms of overall talent as an artist he's the Goat! Lastly those twins are so fine😍!
It's a shame how overlooked his guitar chops was, generally being put in the pop star category of MJ and Madonna, which isn't a bad thing! But his virtuosity could be in the same league as Hendrix, Santana or Van Halen! He could cater to the pop audience AND be a true mucisian!!!💜💜💜💜
You can judge Prince solely as a guitar player; just disregard his songwriting career, and he would still be considered one of the best overall players in the past 50 years.
I miss him like the flowers need the rain. I miss him every day. I live 15 min from Paisley Park & I miss his after hour shows there. He’d call & we would go. There is NOTHING like seeing him perform live, in his home. He is still in Chanhassen. I walk by slowly & think I can almost hear him call my name. I turn around & its just the whisper of the rain. I know how lucky I am.
I was and still am crazy about Prince, Since the Album with the hit songs STILL WAITING AND I WANT TO BE YOUR LOVER, VERY TALENTED AND WILL FOREVER BE LOVED AND MISSED. RIP
You can pick any song from the 2009 Montreux concert and it will be mindblowing. That was one of his best concerts ever, IMO. I was there and everyone who was there was changed forever. At least they were if they knew what they were seeing. It was an unforgettable experience. Empty Room--unbelieveable that night.
Prince was the greatest of musicians. He shared his God given gifts with the world and was also a powerful messenger for Jehovah'. I thank our Lord for Prince.
All this greatness and this man is self taught - such a musical genius, a walking angel. If he had given me his guitar, I promise I would have learned how to play - RIP Mr. Prince! 💜💜💜💜💜🎶🎸
The guitar the best play is a adtennsion of the best the 8 times he when tp a place where no can go only he can go and he makes the guitar sounds likes a woman crying on every solo you go boy the best rip..
Passion/heart, technical ability, insane versatility. This dude had it all in spades. I really don’t like to compare because every artist brings their own flavor but fuck it I’m callin it. He’s the goat. 🔥 Oh, and swag. A whole shitload of swag.
So God was kind enough to allow this special soul to live amongst us for 57 years. He wasn't just here to demonstrate & bless us with his seemingly unnatural gifts that still awe us to this day, but to show us humanity, humility, gratitude, philanthrophy, and forgiveness. I love God first and more so for all of the many people, gifts and blessings that He left us...especially Prince❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
8:44 to 10:00, had me cringing! To be able to feel the intensity and electricity of Prince's gift is one that cannot be measured up to💜💜💜💜. I enjoyed this and started it over several times too!!
I always wonder when people make these guitar videos the never put him covering The Temptations Just My Imagination. He really goes off on that one. Maybe because it's audio and not video. Well you're missing a treat let me tell ya!!!💜
@@marloneberhart8753 I was there at the Carrier Dome. March 30, 1985. He tore the place up. I left out without my voice. It was something to see. But I still like his Temptation solo better. Just my opinion. Purple love to ya💜💜💜💜
I didn’t know how good he was.Knew about him liked some hits he had but never delved into him. I realise he was taken out by the deep state and that started me looking into him . What a journey. This man is a legend and musical genius
Just like George Lynch from Dokken and Lynch mob who never knew theory. Some of the best guitarists it's all about how you can make it speak, great phrasing! Prince was so versatile, on point intuition.
I love you from the very moment you came on the scene I have loved you ! He is the only person that can make me cry when I watch him perform it’s absolutely crazy that I cry at times when I watch him
It's prolly a trademark thing but his solo on While My Guitar Gently Weeps was incredible. It was either a George Harrison tribute or Crossroads but Clapton, Beck and a ton of guts were there
Played organized mayhem..😅😅 Like a Man possessed by a guitar 🎸 or a guitar 🎸 possessed by a man 🤔 😅😅. Ladies and gentlemen the one and only ( PRINCE ) 🤴
What is that guy is going to do with that guitar? How much is it worth today, with proof that he personally gave it to him after going beat mode on it?
Top 5 guitarist, top 50 pianist ,top 10 dancer, top 10 drummer, top 50 bassist,top 5 vocalist of all time ,top 5 entertainer of all time,top 5 greatest live performer of all time .
Top 1 for being a pioneer in independence an ownership of your masters , 1st to use internet as a means to get his music heard,i could go on all day am night, this is all
just my opinion but PRINCE stands alone as the goat ... littrely no one compares to him...
that's right...! A real Star in the music world and a lot of creativity in his mind!!!
SPEAK ON IT!!!
Completely agree the best artist of all time 👏 🙌
I agree

That's right .. the last king of entertainment in any style prince was always one step ahead !!
Absolutely #facts

I feel the same.. I've seen some greats also.. And some newer metal gods... But Prince is untouchable when it comes too jam sessions or literally playing any instrument
@@briangriffin9046 at least 73 years old
YOU WERE AT THE DEVONSHIRE DOWNS SHOW!!! OMG!!! WHAT WAS THAT LIKE SEEING HENDRIX THERE!!
You know I would've loved to see him jam with Steve Vai!!
This man CANT be dead!! I refuse to accept!
Prince will live forever
People who speak to much and when the higher power doesnt need you they will end you
I pretend he's still alive
Prince lives eternally. Love never dies.
I lives through us
Nobody is touching Prince musically, not in a million years. Brotha, was above the stars and channeling frequencies, vibrations and Colors directly from source. One love in the sky and Prince will never die because his music is reverberating in the multiverse forever.
The guitar is an extremity of HIMSELF. Know THIS and you’ll understand his music.
I would say an 'extension' of himself.. but as a professional musician (lead vocal/Guitar of DUNGAREE DOGS NYC) I know exactly what you mean. ❤❤❤🎼🎸🎼❤❤❤
It’s like just an extension of his body, like a arm or something!!
As a singer and a musician...I can say that Prince didn't go down to the cross roads to make a deal.. Any deal he made..you can rest assured that they came to his house and brought cheese 🧀, wine 🍷 caviar and, his MASTERS.

That Empty Room performance was phenomenal! He annihilated that solo with ease. What a fucking talent.
I watch it atleast 50 times a day!!
Easily top 5 in every musical category. Sorely missed. An incredible artist.
No other musician in this world touches my soul and my emotions like PRINCE! No one else makes me sing and dance, lough and cry to the music like PRINCE ! He was the greatest of all time.
The Montreux Show 2009 , especially „Empty Room“ always blows my head off…
Prince was the greatest musician that
ever walked the face of the earth.🥰💜👑🎵🎶🎸
Indeed...
The older I get the more inclined I am to believe that..
He was such a fucking badass… a guitar god that never got praised enough for his playing. This actually got me emotional watching him shred and knowing he’s gone way too young
Don’t his purple badness distract you from the fact that the man was a guitar playing motherf*****!! Not to mention drummer and keyboarder and horn player and….every damn thing!
The reason why I taught myself how to play electric guitar. The best to ever do it. A true icon. 💜
Prince was the total package. He could sing, dance, write, produce, and play multiple instruments. I'm terms of overall talent as an artist he's the Goat! Lastly those twins are so fine😍!
His performance at the rock and roll hall of fame was AMAZING! While my guitar gently weeps w/ Tom Petty and Co.
It's a shame how overlooked his guitar chops was, generally being put in the pop star category of MJ and Madonna, which isn't a bad thing! But his virtuosity could be in the same league as Hendrix, Santana or Van Halen! He could cater to the pop audience AND be a true mucisian!!!💜💜💜💜

@@kelvendyson1508 no Prince gives his guitars away often
My eyes would of rolled in the back of my head 😅

Sexiest musician ever....Best performances ever...He will never be touched!! Miss you like crazy Prince!! 💜

One of the greatest artists of all time you will be missed my man prince
The “Goat” ♐️
Man I had no clue Prince was this good on guitar. I'm ashamed! Definitely about to start channeling some of this energy at my shows.
He is so amazing perfect great!!! The One and Only Prince 💜💜💜💜💜
Prince was the greatest of musicians. He shared his God given gifts with the world and was also a powerful messenger for Jehovah'. I thank our Lord for Prince.
What a legacy Prince has left us he left it all on the table musician artist direct from his soul to us... RIP Prince u r Jammin w the Angels
Bravo.! Bravo !..Magficent
His drummer is really good too
sadly, he "was" good, he died almost a year after Prince
His guitar sounds like his voice at times… amazing
In many ways his guitar was his voice
Absolutely the best because the brotha was channeling new music innovations from the source infinity. Prince is music.
I just woke up.....o wow!!!!! Thank U so much my dear!💋
I believe
RIP the purple one
All this greatness and this man is self taught - such a musical genius, a walking angel. If he had given me his guitar, I promise I would have learned how to play - RIP Mr. Prince! 💜💜💜💜💜🎶🎸

Breaks my heart every time I see a video of him. There is only Madonna and Bruce left from the 4 gods of the 80’s. Michael and Prince are gone.
I will say George Michael is one of the greats from 80s who left us soon too. In pop from 80s we have still Boy George.
@@bluesapphire7548 I agree. I should have said of the major smash albums from the 80’s. When did the WAM album come out
weeeeeeeeellll....there is only one God, one King......and then there is Prince!
Spot on with your choices, but I’d add Phil Collins in there too. All the artist you mentioned had hit after hit, on every album.
Madonna 😂😂😂😂😂🙈🙉🙊😂😂😂😂
MAGICAL
Great compilation. A true artist and virtuoso. I say that as a dedicated, decades long metalhead. ✊🏻🤘🏻
Prince avec la 🎸 guitate est un génie parmi les génies rip prince que ton âme repose en paix
Je plussoie
Shit if prince gave me his guitar. What a feeling
FR
Simply the very best words can’t describe him at all
Love the selection! ❣️🎶🎸🎶❣️
Sshhhhhhh......Rest in Peace Prince and John Blackwell.......deeply missed (btw I hope the dude kept the guitar!)
I'd feel like a total badass if I could play the guitar half as good as he did!🤩😎
Empty room…….enough said.
Fabulous
There were times he'd ask the audience if he could play his guitar and that we say " prince thats all we want you to do"
stunning
I always wonder when people make these guitar videos the never put him covering The Temptations Just My Imagination. He really goes off on that one. Maybe because it's audio and not video. Well you're missing a treat let me tell ya!!!💜
You mean from Small club, Holland?
@@bertfoubert7492 yes. The small club after show. That solo is pure fire 🔥🔥. Prince went to outer space or something in that one💜💜💜

One cf the best
The list goes Prince, Beethoven, Jimi, Roy Buchanan, Jaco Pistorius, Dave Ghohl, tosin abasi, Daryl Abbott...
Thankyou for including Dime

Most undermined guitarest , miss him and see him in the new system!!❤❤❤
Amazing💜💜💜
It is soooooooo hard to FATHOM THAT ALL OF THIS GONE...UNFINISHED
PRINCE PERFORMING IN WHITE ONLY WITH 👋 GUITAR I LOVE THAT SONG 🎶 🎵
Our generation's Mozart for sure.
PRINCE THE ARTIST PRINCE ONLY HE THE GREATEST SOLOIST
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Omg that dude that got the baby blue guitar
P & the band bodied that Santana medley & sonned Carlos...no disrespect!!!
I saw him once in San Jose in concert & he brought Carlos on stage with him & it was dueling guitars. It was EPIC.
My 1st time hearing it & I'm stuck
@dominiquejones3805 believe me I understand...I wish I knew how to enhance the sound cause it's thin...still great nonetheless
I ric flair say mind time too be the man you have too beat the man funny but it's so ture no one can "t beat the best .
HOW BOUT DAMNNNEAR EVERY TIME HE STEPPED ON STAGE…IJS….
🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Thee Best guitarist ever no doubts
Only 8 times?😮😮😮 My guess would’ve been like 28,732 times he went “Beast Mode”.😂😂😂
Played organized mayhem..😅😅 Like a Man possessed by a guitar 🎸 or a guitar 🎸 possessed by a man 🤔 😅😅.
Ladies and gentlemen the one and only ( PRINCE ) 🤴
That Santana Medley is ridiculous
What if "Jimi" was still alive and He had Battled "Prince" on stage 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I PASSED OUT!!!!
Plectrum Electrum was funking fantastic
Ha! He gave the guitar 🎸 to someone in the crowd and still was riffing he's either god teir or he was miming
I hope that dude didn't sell that guitar on ebay.
What is that guy is going to do with that guitar? How much is it worth today, with proof that he personally gave it to him after going beat mode on it?
