AT SAN FRANCISCO
So good song.
Love this.
One of my favorites.

[@risaandjesus]

Dang. I never get tired watching her play and sing. She’s fantastic!!! She is so blessed her father is an extremely talented drummer too.

[@Samusfan89]

Complete talent, from start to finish. She's iconic and this performance is EXACTLY how you're supposed to put on a show.

[@salsadancer4965]

She sold talent not sex. The complete package and more. Unbelievable energy levels and polished and flawless performance. I only wish she would dance some more. She is a fabulous dancer with real attitude.

[@Chef_nO-shiRt]

She’s already playing drums and singing, what more do you want???

[@Dajana1962]

Not everyone can be prince - although she is like female Prince

[@mikepeterson3969]

....,s 4.

[@1087shotwell]

That's right she's a MUSICIAN not auto tune her microphone is on and live.

[@jedkronfeld6948]

respectfully, did you not see her turn around and rub her coochie for the audience at 3:30? she is selling sex and talent and she's stocked the fuck up

[@Dornie51]

Love Sheila E and this song. She's an incredible percussionist and drummer!!! 💜💛🧡💚💖

[@regcart]

No Prince did not teach her but she is just an amazing Musician. SHe rocked it

[@manuelaareizaga8805]

..

[@danacooper3646]

Yes she did!!!!

[@bethsmith7263]

Her dad was one of the Percussionists for Santana… she’s Latin Music Royalty…. 💕

[@The1986era]

Prince know how to pick them.

[@curtisboswell2619]

Girl STILL has it goin' on... She's aged well, and her style hasn't changed much. Still damned sharp, and has more rhythm in one little finger, than most folks will ever have in their entire body... all that, on top of being beautiful, and having a beautiful singing voice... That girl is the whole package!

[@4mydearlady]

The light up drumsticks, though! People knew how to put on a live show back then.

[@mitzithompson6585]

Yes they did!

[@queunlimited4779]

Don't care what Prince's other protoges say. They never rocked as hard as Sheila!

[@oracleangelsshiftall2609]

Watching her play drums like this was awe inspiring!!! Fabulous beyond words so talented!!! ❤❤❤

[@kheir03]

A TRUE ARTIST! I remember when I first saw Shelia E on tv when I lived in San Antonio, TX back in the 80's That Glamerous Life video was requested every hour on the hour on MTV and *BET. Even on the radio! I just bought the tape and played the hell out of it. It'still a gem today for those like me who truly appreciate REAL MUSIC.

[@kissfan7]

That. Was. F**king. Insane.

[@MileyonDisney]

Sheila E is the most beautiful woman I have seen in my entire life. I'm a 57-year-old man, so I've seen plenty of women. I was in the Marines in 1986, when I first learned of her. She was, more or less, my pinup girl back then. I've just never seen another woman as beautiful as her.

[@angelabowman5978]

I Love This Song.......15 years later and I'm still moved by it!

[@OshareHime]

Great song! Sheila E is one hell of a talented performer!

[@aavalestormiconicperformer]

Words cannot truly express what I feel.

[@user-cz3ep3qc7b]

シーラ・Ｅ　は、いつ見てもカッコいいなあ。　パーカション叩き、踊りながら歌うのは、かなりハードだと思うけど、シンバルを足で蹴り上げるのは、素敵！　ところで、Ｅ　は、「エスコヴェード」の頭文字で、彼女のオジサンが初期の「サンタナ」のメンバーだったと思うけど（違ったらゴメン！）、血筋なんだろうなあ・・・あっ！途中で、「ライトセーバー」みたいなスティックでたたき始めるのは、初めてみたけど、これも凄いよね！　カッコいい・・・としか言えません。

[@SummerGalLongIsland]

She is a CRAZY beat woman!!! Awesome!!

[@magicguitarsfirewoman4908]

Love to hear her sing, and how she's playing the Drums.

[@mikeyg6631]

That solo performance is a hard one to copy lol!! Love the drums!!

[@ajmarveldc5505]

Just mind blowing still all these years later!! She rocks so freaky hard!!! I love love Sheila E rt!!!

[@ajmarveldc5505]

How many of you remember Sheila E's smashing hit song and music video, 'The Glamorous Life', back in '1984'?

[@cheriekemp1436]

I'm from NZealand she's fukn awsome 55 now still listen to her

[@6librascales9]

I seen this show back in the day @ Phoenix Symphony Hall and let me tell u It was one of the BEST live shows EVER!!! I wish everyone could have experienced the whole concert as i did, we never sat down for shit. It was one big happy fun dancing party. I've seen many try to copy her but to no avail she's one of a kind.

[@69TT]

6librascales9 Indeed it was the best time for artist & musicians, who knew how to rock the party, absolutely the best days of life, got chance to see her @ Disney back in the day when this came out, like you said there was no sitting down, I felt like I was part of the band

[@erichargrove6992]

The Best Percussionist Ever ever ever God really gave it to her and Beautiful!!!

[@margaritaangulo3927]

En el escenario eres unica en los timbales Sheyla E! Nadie como tu eres leyenda ochentera que vale oro en el medio musical.

[@Nevermind7771]

Still gives me GOOSEBUMPS

[@enzoleone8221]

Wow !!! so a wonderful woman and artist!! Sheila E. love you

[@victoriasecret9009]

Electrifying performance! Love it!

[@FocusXi]

He Definitely Taught her MUCH of the Showmanship, but her entire Family was in the Music Biz her entire Life, so she was already "headed there".

[@regcart]

I agree with you there but i believe they both taught each other a thing or two.......I love their kinship where music is concerned. I have a HUGE respect for them both.

[@delainepep22]

Prince went to see her play in 77. Sheila was already playing for other big named people. So she didn't need Prince. He did help her also. But she was relevant before Prince.

[@inaj27]

I was only 5 when she did this concert. Wish I could have seen her doing this live at this time : ) Love Sheila E

[@inaj27]

San Francisco in the house !!! Bay Area represent

[@JessicaWhiteheadAKA]

Pure GENIUS !!!!!!

[@chaliceofchange]

Trust me she taught Prince many things! She is a consumate musician First! From a family of performers!

[@zacarias_villa]

The DIVA that rocks!!!!

[@aavalestormiconicperformer]

She has total.control of that sound.

[@margaritaangulo3927]

Esto si era una artista de verdad solita se comia vivito el escenario sin necesidad de tantos bailarines. Grande SHEYLA E. bellos tiempos ochenteros que jamas volveran!

[@damoreea]

i love this song

[@TheDawn11238]

The joy about this kind of music will keep coming back. Whether its because someone told them or they heard a remix. Or like me who caught a unsung episode...the only things that matters is that ppl keep coming back. 1 day 2 wks 3 months.....

[@1967lovechild]

Incredibly mind blowing

[@dominque865]

i am the biggest shelia e in the world! she was my inspiration to be a snare drummer in high school- East Orange, New Jersey-Dominque

[@kja427]

I think I've pin-pointed where Sheila E. got her look, as well as her attitude. In the late 70's, Pamela hensley played Princess Ardala on "Buck Rogers in The 25th Century" Sheila E.'s Look and Attitude, is pure Ardala; I'm sure of it!

[@archiejackson2315]

Dag Sheila e was fine as wine

[@martinbeaudoin2540]

Most beautiful girl I've ever seen,,,,and talented as hell!

[@rudyalapagjr2617]

I'll watch the video everyday. Its Sheila E. And who said: Woman can't play drums?

[@dynamicvoltage9765]

um...no one? Sounds like you had that in your head though, so you must be sexist.

[@mikeyg6631]

I love this video. One of her best live performance. No Lip singing here. Meaning singers of today.

[@Harcix]

Who uses lip sync today?

[@BMH04]

Morris Day and the Time, Prince and every band variation he had, and Shelia E love' em all stage presence is amazing. True showman

[@breaks0]

The saxophonist is pretty awesome too! :)

[@juanmanuelfabela8362]

Sheila E. made me feel young again!!!!!!

[@user-vn1rh8kk1k]

She is so talenteddddd

[@sharpaycutie2]

My fav performance of this song

[@kgmckool]

AMAZING!

[@inaj27]

2020 I still love this 💜

[@TheUnknownNetizen]

Thumbs up for the best music era! 80's!

[@makn2432]

LEGEND - her whole family are percussionists and Sheila E learnt from her Dad since she was a little girl. She is Puerto Rican

[@39Missmel]

She was born in Cali to a Mexican father and mother is from Louisiana ok

[@dvlarry]

Dynamite performance.

[@mixeduniverse111]

8:13 that solo is beyond extraordinary!

[@LandaCrystal]

This woman is and was so talented she pretty much went underrated by all Lumpens. She is a talented artist percussionist just like her father was!

[@private_joy]

Not bad for a girl!

[@clos4140]

i remember pop locking to this.

[@BerndUR]

She was my first major crush, still gets me !!!

[@karengarrett3000]

Shelia E is a great artist she sings dances and plays instruments as well!!

[@michaelrodriguez2031]

[@ginleeuchiha7674]

I was 12@ the time this video came out...If not for Sheila,I wouldn't have a drumset in my dining room 🤘😁& rhythm in my heart!!🙏🤟❤🌹❤🤘🙏Peace to all.😊

[@stephanieleigh62]

She is Beautiful and Bad. Awesome Musician. The Fur coat and the Drumsticks🥁 though.

[@newpowersoul2005]

every her movement is Prince.

[@nbadoc7]

The Best Drummer in the world!!!!! I just saw her in concert in LA on 9-23 10. Looks & sounds great!!!

[@ivalinapasse2469]

She's Dope She Rocked those Drums

[@kledone]

[@erikthechosenone]

THIS WAS FIREEEE!!!!! They was getting it!🔥🔥🤍🤍

[@kay77764]

[@inaj27]

Will always love her 😍🥰😘

[@Dimensions100]

That ending tho!

[@violetfrankson5924]

Spectacular

[@412dke]

hey, hey ,puro talentoooo!!!!!!!!

[@missparsley3202]

If there would be 1 thin girl I would liked to have been, it would be this one and in general I don't like to be skinny. Even my boyfriend wouldn't like it 🤣🤣 But Sheila E has so much class, in the eighties it was all about style and she had lots of it. I love how she plays the cymbals, it is unique, really admire female musicians. Sheila E. Never trashy always supercool looking and attractive at the same time. She has the greatest legs ever and always wore fantastic outfits. She is such a beautiful AND talented woman. I would have liked to see Sheila E. & Prince celebrate their 50th anniversary, they would have been the perfect couple. Always a fan in Belgium for you Señora Sheila. Tú quedas la más bonita, según mi opinion. 💯👋💃💯🌷Diós te cuida para siempre, por dóndequiera. 🙏❤️🍀💜🍀💐🍀

[@chattent13]

Just passed out, OMG I love her. I would give away a piece of my soul to be at the Purple Rain Concert once more.

[@chaliceofchange]

La la La La ABC!!!! She is wicked sexy talented and a teacher of the real FUNK!!

[@brianjames2192]

A DYNAMIC PULSATING AND TRULY TALENTED MUSICIAN and DIVA

[@maasma66]

She's my ideal woman.

[@OscillatorCollective]

EPIC!!!!

[@rohanmarkjay]

Can feel the Afro-latin blood flow through in her drumming. She is a very talented drummer along with her contempory Phil Collins were the two most talented drummer-singer combination of the 1980s.

[@robinvarnado7256]

👍🏾

[@marcelaelizalde]

Princesa and her...heaven

[@HoboHeaven]

Awesome and a Dreamgirl.

[@jinsabre]

babe always luv !

[@gleff3345]

Such a friendly person. Saw her last month in the Netherlands. Thanks for posting

[@buzzfunk]

Hey thats my old keyboard teacher playing keys in the back, left! Cat?? is that you? ;')

[@carolinepierson-gower3024]

Sheila E is such an awesome talent!....I often why Prince didn't marry that JEM!?....

[@kittenfuud]

Hey, she ended up in Ringo's All Star Band, if you wanna question her talent! 😉

[@drs2tone]

Probably got that from her Daddy!!! Long line of performers.

[@FocusXi]

Damn STRAIGHT!

[@drs2tone]

She is way more than a pretty face!! She comes from a history of percussionists! Just so happens that she marketed herself in the pop 80's era....Like Prince...got stuck there....

[@fredericmarques582]

love u

[@Rosalia-yu6ry]

Love is what You need - 3:30 !

[@davidbendel317]

She started as Prince's drummer but like all the musicians Prince picked up including Morris Day another as 8-10 out of Minneapolis all connected to Prince from the 1980s and 1990s

[@vminajj1267]

Sheila e was so fine back in the day

[@DJDubleJ]

Romance 1600!!

[@edwinb9276]

MY RESPECT, LATIN POWER, EVEN THAT SOME PEOPLES DON'T LIKE IT. MUSICS ARE IN OUR SOUL AND ANCESTORS. MIS RESPETO, PODER LATINO, AUNQUE ALGUNAS PERSONAS, NO LE GUSTAN. LA MUSICA ESTA EN NUESTRO SER Y NUESTROS ANCESTROS.
