    Yup. Man... Just thinking back it's amazing all the music that he created. Until something like this happens you (or at least me) don't think about it but the amount of GOOD music he made was pretty impressive.

    He was a hell of a guitar player. I never realized that growing up listening to (and mostly disliking) his pop music. Check out some videos of him playing live... dude could really swing an axe.

    No doubt he was amazing. I started playing when I was 14 and David Gilmour was always my "personal" inspiration but Prince would be a great one to attempt (notice I said "attempt") to emulate.

    Incredible loss of talent. May Prince R.I.P.

    I'll have to check through my record stash later. I'm sure I've got Purple Rain in there. If I've got "The Time" then I know I have all of Prince's early work. Still got 100's of albums from my youth.

    Not only guitar but all instruments. He was an incredibly talent musician. One in a million. It is a sad day for the world of music.
