“But others do which renders you and me irrelevant. Prince and his music will be honored 50 years from now.”
Exactly.
Same with Jimi Hendrix who was a druggie musician who passed away nearing 50 years ago...pretty much choked to death on his own vomit..... But Hendrix is copied and revered and I still like some of music.
Especially Winwood and Clapton doing Little Wing.
