This Prince's Solo Is One Of The Best In Rock History

[@yourcelebrant]

When you watch the entire clip George's son smiles so wide it shows just how much he respected and was blown away by Prince's solo.

He was the one who convinced his mom to let Prince play the solo as he saw fit. So yeah he instantly knew he made a great choice.

If I had his musicianship, wearing women's negligees and having every woman on the planet want to bed him, I damn sure would be cocky. Shoot, I learned that one female wanted to bed me when I played the black guitarist on TV, I got cocky, it backfired because she ultimately found out I was in fact white. With small hands and small feet. She left and there I was, holding the Philadelphia inquirer and a strong desire to have been born black. Just not fair.

I think I learned things about my uncle that day that I wish I hadn't.

[@jokersays3049]

Prince was a gem of a guitarist. He definitely did not get the attention and the accolades that he definitely deserved as one of the best guitarists of his day. This one show should have shown how great he was.

[@lanarichardson1112]

We love you George Harrison, Prince

[@jtbaying2312]

Best cover version ever done. Prince out shined the Original guitar by Eric Clapton believe it or Not. George let E.C do this song and Harrison did the song Badge.by Clapton.

Not a Petty fan?

[@scottmartinets1000]

Wow never seen or heard about this and I'm a fan of all these guys. Thanks for enlightening me. Prince was the ultimate musician /performer of all time

[@PuckDropCards]

Prince could play any instrument and was a Master of many!

[@neosentry]

Prince was so far beyond us.. a creature of music.. he thought in tone and cadence and felt in keys and harmonies .. we witnessed something truly amazing and special. For him to pay tribute to another being.. spoke volumes and meant more than any hall or plaque could ever convey.

[@terrymaloney9683]

Truly a man with two brains.

[@DarkChocolateAngel]

Beautifully expressed 💜

[@JoseTorres-rs7kj]

Beautifully worded compliment

[@sahb7834]

Yeah? I thought Purple Rain really sucked. Prince trying to be a tough guy on his purple motorcycle. And then, the songs. Underwhelming pop. He was full of himself on and off stage, not a fan and never will be. He's gone get over it.🤣

[@neosentry]

That was one of the best guitar solos I have ever seen! Rock and roll royalty there and you could tell even they were impressed! Brilliant! RIP Prince.

[@PhD_in_Undecided]

I definitely agree.. I love great guitar soloes, and (even though Comfortably Numb, live was my fav) this was one of the best I’ve ever seen

[@notoriousbig73]

There can ONLY be ONE Rest in Paradise.... PURPLE 1💜

[@qj1247]

This sounds amazing with the voiceover of you constantly talking! So breathtaking!!!!

[@gfreeman9843]

No crushed egos here, enjoying playing together,Prince in the flow. Watch the whole song.. it's a beautiful thing.❤❤❤

[@davidfeltz8697]

Indeed. Harrison has many great songs. This is my favorite from the epic white Album!

[@HOPEat]

Awesome performance by Prince. They say when he is really into it his facial expressions are prevalent. 🍻☮️

[@VictoriaPushruk]

Prince was awesome ❤

[@DeeL-u1c]

This was so 🔥

[@Fifty8day]

I love this solo it’s the best ever.

[@DianaLafleur-wp8lg]

Prince was the greatest musician I've seen him twice in concert, once during the Controversy tour, and then again at the purple reign your at the Bill Graham Auditorium in San Francisco CA, Prince was a Creole like me, his family was from Cotton Valley Louisiana, and my family is from VillePlatte Louisiana, we are Creole, rest in peace dear one, from Ms Diana LaFleur 🌹⚜️🐊

[@johnavzaradel1812]

That is a legendary solo right there

[@geraldbodnar2718]

Everyone needs to listen to this version! Awesomeness 👌 👏

[@hornet1blue]

Just a quick reminder if anyone needed it how Prince was easily a top ten lister for the best guitarists of all time!!! Maybe even top five he was just that bloody good ❤

[@lutherhenry7201]

[@lawrencewoods5876]

I never get tired of watching that tribute!!!

[@turnbull1621]

And he was just as talented on the piano, among a couple dozen other instruments

[@patrickb133]

He was just a master musician something I didn't know till a few years ago. I was amazed to see how good he truly was.

[@GeraldVasquez-gk5et]

[@GarthWatkins-th3jt]

Prince was a one man tour-de-force. I could write a comment longer than it's sane to do so....for now, see you on the other side where we'll meet again

[@energyasylum997]

[@ASHisbell-187]
