Satin, how are you my man? It has been awhile. Yeah you know I could not resist not adding a response concerning the Purple Man. Originally Posted by jamiestarr

Same here DM, favorite Artist of all times and arguably one of the most talented. When he put out his first album at 18,(For You) he produced, wrote, sang all lyrics and played all the instruments(27). Unheard of... I have never missed a Prince concert and he's the only person I care to see...

Damn DM, what got you thinking of Prince? Originally Posted by Satin

Morris Day lived down the street......child hood friends so he put that group together for him.

This was one of the reasons Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis left the group. Prince would not allow them to have any input or do any of their own songs.

During that time Prince used the name Jamie Starr or Alexander Nevermind on songs and artist material he didn't want known he was behind.........

Jamie Starr...Damn Bruh long time no see!! I knew this thread would wake your ass up.

Kerwil, I think you got them all covered. I like that you mentioned Django Rheinhart and also Wes Montgomery.

Pat Methany is also incredible!! Damn, I forgot George Benson can play and sing!???

I also remember being in the 8th grade..showing my age..and hearing "Soft and Wet" on the school bus headed to Johnston Junior High...OUCH?? All of the ladies had Prince Book Covers??? Originally Posted by DarthMaul

Prince was my heart throb in the '80s. Nothing made me hotter then his sexy look and voice. He still has some of my fav songs to get nasty too.......Cream, oh YES baby......

What I wanna know is who played that wild ass guitar solo on 777-9311. Could be either Jesse or Prince(I always thought it was Jesse). And Jimmy Jam did play that mini-moog keyboard solo on Wild And Loose. And let's not forget about Jellybean, the drummer who played a LOT of guitar on a lot of Jam/Lewis
productions(he ain't no slouch either).

Once the band did learn the music, dance steps, and all, they put on a killer live show! Prince worked those bruthas HARD!!

JamieStarr whattup bruh!!! Long time no see!!

This has now turned into a "hey, what's up Jamie, long time no see, we miss you bro" thread...lol

A reunion in order?

Prince helped me get laid once way back in the day. I was tearing up the dance floor with a nasty ho, to when doves cry. Went back to her place and was fucking her good, looked at the nightstand and saw a picture of a marine, asked the ho,who's that, she said that's my boyfriend. I said where is he, she said out with friends, I gave her a few more pumps, blasted my goo on demand as quickly as possible and got the f out!! Semper Fi!!
