Well I don't post my Prince listens here (PA)...but other music sites I do where there are members that share the same likes as I do other than this ridiculous prog I listen to ![]() Those sites have been simply blowing up over Prince since he died. Heck the Hoffman forum is up to 134 pages and about 3,300 replies on Prince as of this morning. I have the first 6 albums on vinyl and the CDs of many others, probably 15 in total on CD.....I agree not enough time to listen.

in honour of Prince, here is also a nice triboute, though Prince lived then, it is two giants of music, pulling their hearts out :)

Jim.....I LOVED this photo the second I saw it, brings tears to my eyes. So normal, a simple pleasure of riding a bike down the street... Here in Melbourne, the Arts Centre in the city paid tribute to him on the weekend. ![]() |

Yeah I couldn't believe it when I saw that. Just a simple passerby shot, but it's a fitting and lovely final image.

I love this version of his song Fury, it's a great example of his playing (especially the ending part), so much better than the album's version.

The weekend of Record Store Day 2 weeks ago, I ordered a new vinyl copy of Purple Rain. I had played out my original version and this one is pressed by QRP, reported to be outstanding pressing. Received in the mail yesterday and could not open the bag yet, it was tough.
In the past week he has sold I think over 600,000 albums, now some of this is probably online downloads and such, not actual physical album sales but still.......I am glad I bought my copy, not sure I could find one today. Went this weekend to used record store and found another copy of Prince, I have one already, but why not another! ![]() Store owner says everyone coming in and calling looking for his vinyl....he was wearing a purple shirt on Saturday. ![]() Edited by Catcher10 - April 26 2016 at 11:38 |

There are so many wild and crazy funky theatrical performances on YT that showcase his talents....
I like this low key and intimate medley of songs which shows another side. The lyrics to the last number are a bit haunting considering... Edited by Finnforest - April 28 2016 at 08:04 |

I believe the majority were CDs. Currently on the Billboard charts, The Very Best Of Prince is #1, Purple Rain is #2 and the 3 CD set The Hits/The B-Sides is #6 |

It's odd we still don't know what exactly killed him.

I read up on this.....it may be several weeks to a month or so. Reason I am reading is since this was not an obvious death like suicide or murder, the testing they are running is pretty much everything under the sun. Then the examiners need to go thru all medical history and figure out what medicines (or other) he might have been taking, talk to family and friends to figure out any missing details of his condition at the time. Some of the test results I read can take weeks.....Here is a good explanation. |

Nice cover of Joni's song.....I had read somewhere in the past that he was a big fan of her music.
