Saw him in concert during the Purple Rain tour when a friend asked me to go.

I wasn’t a huge Prince fan at the time. Rock. punk, and heavy metal were more my style.

He gave it everything he, 100%. It was an outstanding show and he was a very talented musician.

Tom Petty, Steve Winwood, and Prince played “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Best version of the song I ever heard and a personal favorite. His guitar solo was spot on.

Check out Prince’s Montreux shows from around 2013 on YouTube.

Just amazing.

I don't know how many times I have watched this video. Prince's guitar solo starts at 3:28 and is mesmerizing.
