Jeff Lynne does a much better job than Prince on lead and with out the stupid stage theatrics. I’m sorry but Prince’s work is simply repetitive and a pale imitation of the Hendrix meme he’s been trying to make work for decades. He’s adequate, IMHO.
Prince is weird, but he is a showman and an incredible talent. He has a very seductive quality that draws you in.
I still think his Super Bowl halftime show was the best one in many years!
ping for later
Seeing Dhani there on stage while this song plays was eerie -- he looks so much like his father, it was almost as if George's ghost had sat in on the session.
Who is the guitarist wearing the cap and standing to the left of Jeff Lynne (Jeff’s right) in this video?
Ok, not my fave song but watched anyway...
Prince kind of out of place here but played pretty well, Petty a frontsman, Winwood should have been lone key boardist, think the drummer is Petty’s go-to drummer who is always awesome but not on this (”Ruunin’ Down A Dream” and “You Wreck Me”). Harrison’s kid stunning how he looks like dad; too bad dad smoked himself into an early grave.
Love these kind of threads every now and then because it leads to new music for me (Bonamassa)...keep them coming!
Somedays music is the only thing that keeps life worth living..especially after reading what’s going on in our beloved country with Obozo and thugs.
