No kidding. He smoked those other legends onstage, and looked like the only one who enjoying the performance (besides George's son). Incredible to think that Prince wasn't even really familiar with the song before being asked to join the tribute, and didn't get to rehearse much with the rest of the guys, but pulled this performance out like it was no big thing. He was GREATNESS!

No, Prince & Rolling Stone did have a falling out, but he's on their top 100 list at #33. Prince was also inducted into the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame in 2004 too, but performed to pay tribute to George Harrison's (The Beatles) induction. His son is the young man on stage standing behind Tom Petty. George Harrison also wrote this song. Prince was invited to rehearse with them, but he politely declined and said that if they would leave a spot open for him (they did to honor his induction too that year), he'd show up and give his best & he did! **The guitar was caught by one of his people & given to Oprah as a gift!

This song was famous from George Harrison (Beatles) and this show was to induct him into the R&R Hall of Fame in 2004.. His son Dhani is playing guitar behind Tom Petty. Jeff Lynne was lead singer in ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) and my favorite song by them was "Evil Woman". Steve Winwood is on organ. You know Prince. The other guitarist is Mark Mann (in Jeff Lynne's band). Epic performance.

When he was asked what it felt like to be the greatest guitarist of all time he said, "I dont know. You would have to ask Prince" Prince played 27 instruments and had his hands on pretty much every single top charted song or album in the 80's. The man was an absolute musical genius.

This is a Tribute to George Harrison and his son, Dhani (young dark haired boy), is playing guitar. This is a George Harrison song and Eric Clapton played guitar on the original George Harrison recording. The Traveling Wilbury's is an all star band that has some great songs. Tom Petty, Jeff Lynn, George Harrison, Roy Orbison, and Bob Dylan were all in that band together. End of the Line is a good song by them but pretty much all of their songs are great. This is a beautiful song, thank you for the reaction. Prince is a very skilled guitar player and he played nearly every other instrument with great skill also. Prince is rated as one of the best guitar players of all time. Prince was playing instruments with expertise as a toddler without any musical teaching or experience (just like Mozart did as a child). Prince was a musical genius, I really miss his talents.

Prince could play 24 instruments fluently by the time he was 12. His parents were jazz musicians. This was Prince giving Rolling Stone magazine the finger for not listing him in their list of best guitar players.🎸 The song was a George Harrison tribute and George's son is one of the guitar players. George was the lead guitarist for the Beatles. The guy with the voice you like is from the band, Electric Light Orchestra, (ELO). These guys are all rock royalty and I love them all.

Prince always could shred a guitar....That sexy specimen was a genius of all instruments. HE DID THE DAMN THANG! He knew all the talent that was instilled in him..thats why he always strutted off the stage after every performance bc he knew he just killed it....I bet we never got to witness all the greatness that was within him bc he was TOOK from us far too soon. There will NEVER BE anyone that can compare to the talent, Soul & Funk Prince was gifted with...#GOAT💜

First this is a cover of a George Harrison Beatles song Tom Petty - one of the best selling artist in history. Don't thing you've done any of his songs yet. Jeff Lynn - lead vocalist of ELO which you loved. Steve Winwood - sang with Spencer Davis Group, Trafficx Blind Faith and more as well as a solo artist Dhani Harrison - George Harrisons son. As for Prince he is a out of this world instrumentalist not just guitar. On most of his albums he plays all the instruments.

Prince was a perfectionist, if he wanted a thing done a certain way, you had better damn well do it that way... same goes for his musical skills, if he was going to sing, then he wanted it to be the best singing ‘ever’, same goes for his guitar playing, he was a bit of a Diva, renowned for not being the easiest to work with but poeople queued up to work with him because he was that damned good.

I think it is worth it. I enjoy Tom Petty's song list that he had on his phone, PC as his choices for playlist.....wish more artists offered their fave artists and playlist. Good to know what our fave artists like to listen to...also Tom Petty has a real varied list from female singers, from 50's to present.

Tom Petty and Steve Winwood were part of the Rock'n' Roll Super Group "The Traveling Willburries". Their bandmates were Bob Dylan, the legendary Roy Orbison (Orbison was up there with Elvis for a stretch), and the man this tribute was for, Mr. George Harrison (he got his start as one of the Beatles). Check them out, they only had two albums (Roy died of a massive heart attack after the second album came out. They did a tribute to him in the video End of the line). There was already an outstanding report between the men on stage.

He showed up for the rehearsal the night before but Jeff Lynne took the solo. The producer was surprised and apologized to Prince. Prince said it was cool, not to worry he would be ready at showtime. He certainly was, but any Prince fan knows he has always ripped solos. You can hear it on his debut album.
