      @216Numbskull 5 років тому +2

      @oddmodd,@vanitysmirror, The person that knew Prince the best was Kirky J. (Kirk Johnson) He was his best friend, and right-hand man. He's a drummer credited for 11 of Prince's albums. Was president of his charities, estate manager of Paisley Park, and best man in his wedding to Mayte. But the 3 names you both picked were also close to him. I would add Bobby Z. to that list also. +++Peace,Prince, & Rock n' Roll !+++

    LIKE MORRISE HAYES RESPONSES ABOUT PRINCE and on other issues of concerns...he has been relative on...Very earthly...sincere...taking the low seat...He doesn't take credit, brags or reserve for himself...He'll get credit with such a type of mannerism that will lift him up...Can tell he has had good stabilized home training...That goes far...Especially the way he impersonates Prince in a humorous twisty way...without grudging-regret tones in his expressive mode...He is the type to be around and confidant...Hayes has proven, through a lot of Podcast, one-on-one interviews...in attendance with others...60 Minutes...his consistency...His version of Prince...and today's issues in the world...having had listen to him previously on some shows...Glad to have stumbled across this one...Historically a legend himself...Being counted a FRIEND who has had close encounters...Rave Reviews...US/NC c/c

    • @MorrisHayes
      @MorrisHayes 2 роки тому +2

      I appreciate this assessment Marian. Accuracy is important to me as Prince is a musical legend and many love him and what he did. I think we that worked with and around him owe it to the fans and the world to represent him and his artistry as accurately and as best as we can for history's sake. You are correct, it's not about me in this context. Thank you for the kind words.

Miss Prince - these stories are priceless, Prince the rock God as Morris coined him. Riding the roller coaster and enJOYing. Prince was a workaholic + but wow he was amazing, no one like him and so inspirational to keep on moving in Life - thanks for this great interview.
    Saw NPG Live stream last night at First Ave (9/13/18) and Morris was there said a few words...and Mayte/Levi/Tommy/Tony and Mack who is a great new addition ...it was beautiful homeage to The Purple One...very emotional - felt the LOVE
