Of note: Clapton has also said, at various times, that SRV, JJ Cale, Buddy Guy were the best guitarists. Of course, Clapton hasn't hung around jazz cats like Joe Pass, Al Dimeola, George Benson much, nor did he ever share a stage with Terry Kath (whom Hendrix is quoted as saying was better than he was) nor Lenny Breault, Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Danny Gatton, and so many others. There is no best or greatest guitarist. Too many metrics, too many genres. It's impossible to say.

Since everyone is talking about seeing him live let me get my 2 cents in. I saw him in concert 6 times starting in 1981 on his Controversy Tour. It was cool for me seeing him pre-superstardom and after. That 1st concert I saw was in a 3900 seat auditorium in a small city in Georgia. I knew then and there that he would go on to something special, but couldn't have imagined what was to follow. A short 3 years later Prince and the Revolution were selling out multiple dates in major cities across the U.S. including The Superdome and The Orange Bowl(which they renamed The Purple Bowl for the concert). I have attended over 100 concerts and have always told people that The Purple Rain Tour is my favorite of them all. I caught two shows on that tour. I feel honored to have witnessed part of his journey.

What's crazy about Prince is everyone knows he plays guitar, but he can't justifiably be categorized as a guitar player. Hearing him play without a band, on an acoustic, there's no denying his acumen, and adroitness is on par with top tier guitarists. Unequivocally, the man was an exceptional guitar player, it's just his chops were that tight on several instruments. His understanding of each was based on their respective foundations, and specialized techniques. So if he's on keys, he's not a guitar player on keys, he's the flippin'' piano man. And still, this falls short of describing his musicianship, because he was also able to compose unique parts for each of these instruments, from their unique perspectives, all at the same time, which made him a beast in the studio. When he'd take it on the road, he was also able to lead other musicians to hit all his subtle nuances on their instruments while he's playing guitar. He wasn't just a prodigy, he was a prodigy among prodigies. Obviously, this video got me thinking. I don't think I've ever heard Prince playing solo on acoustic before. This kind of hit me like hearing Hendrix play Hear My Train a Comin' on a 12 string for the first time. I'm glad KZbin pushed the post.

Saw him twice in Edinburgh, best show ever. In 2-300 years he will be regarded in the same vein as Motzart etc.

He had his share of good riffs, but he was a star because of his great talent as an entertainer. I’ve not been a pop music fan, but definitely like his music. RIP.

Prince was so talented. He must have been a twin because no one person should be so talented.

In 1984 I saw the Purple Rain Tour 17th row main floor at the Rosemont Horizon in suburban Chicago. Sheila E was the back up band. I have seen a lot of great concerts in my life and that one has to be in the top 5. What a major musical talent with the persona to match. The best way to describe how the chicks in the audience were swooning for him was that it reminded me of the earliest videos of the Beatles with all of the teen age girls screaming and fainting LOL! Only at the Prince concert they weren't fainting they were lusting!

Oh the man is one of history's rare talents. Incredible. Such a shame he wasn't recognised for his all of his talents when he was alive.

I never really cared much about Prince and thought of him as just another 80s star, until I worked for him as a stage hand in 2000. I've met many artists, from Paul McCartney over Beyonce (well, Destiny's Child then) to Michael Jackson, but no-one impressed me like Prince. He blew me away. It was Jimi Hendrix reincarnate. I'm a fan ever since.

I don’t think there will never be a Prince biopic. It would be impossible to cast anyone to credibly play him. He was truly one of a kind! Rest in peace.

Best musician ever? There have been some awesome guitar shredders in this world, but it's hard to find a better one than him. Musical mastermind at over 20 instruments as well? Played a hell of a basketball game too? Truly....
