Normally I stay clear of the RIP threads …I don't want to be next
Anyway , a couple of things ,
Prince was very much like many people on this board , except that maybe he had a lot more resources and talent than some of us …
A lot of people may or may not know that Prince would often play all the instruments and parts on his tunes .
I've also heard that he would stick with one song dialed up in his studio until he got the song exactly where he wanted it …
I find this to be pretty amazing because I was working at some high profile NYC Music stores in the late 70's going into the mid 80's . Midi was about to become mainstream , all the hardware was expensive , Midi sequencers Synthesizers and Drum Machines were all new players in the game …
Many of those tools may have had lot's of character , but they lacked fineness and much of todays functionality .
RTFM on all that $hit , figure out how too hook it all up and then go make some creative music …Yeah right ..lol
While your at it , Create a Unique Branded Image and Dance every bit as good as M J while you play guitar with the showmanship and imagination of Jimi …
My Vibe and thoughts on Prince are , Prince was more like a lot of US than we are like him .
RIP Prince .
all the best,
Kenny
