    Prince was no dummy.He kept her playing in his band after all those years...because he knew she was super talented and had a name.And stage presence.The baddest chick that ever touched a drum set!

    There has never been a hotter drummer than this woman in the history of the instrument. Everytime I see her perform it takes me back to being 10yrs old in 84 and i get chills and stare like a child. Shes amazing.

    Sheila E was giving her hometown fans in Oakland a special treat. It's so sexy to see a beautiful woman like that with "REAL" talent, playing instruments, singing and all. That Prince is a lucky man. He's been with some very beautiful women, including Sheila E.

I've yet to wrap my head around the fact of never seeing her perform with Prince again. His passing has left a huge empty hole in my soul. I always knew I loved him, I just never knew how much until now. Damn. just damn.

    The Bay Area's musical lineage is blessed with the Escovedo blood and when Prince moved to Marin, he was taken in by their family and introduced to a whole world of Latin rhythm and groove. I remember this concert and the amazing victory tour vibe. Every night he brought local music legends like Sheila E. and Carlos Santana out to share the stage with him. He played so long that but for Oakland and Alameda County ordinances, I thought he'd never stop. (He literally broke the law by playing so long into the night) It was incredible and infectious. Thank you for that.

      @EchosLens 7 лет назад +9

      Very good question and my guess is, if he was that far gone then...he didn't feel a thing, or shut it off, even. He could have fought the school policy (or his own)--he was the adult in the room.
      My drum teacher (a man) and me (a girl) would only teach me during his lunch period. He'd eat, have long conversations with other adults who came into the room, and taught me next to nothing--seriously. It has taken me until now, age 54, for me to get comfortable with my percussion instruments. With the help of a great cassette tape (ironically, for children) that goes from simple rhythms to more and more complex ones, it's made drumming almost as easy as pie.

    I'm so proud to be from Oakland. I moved to San Diego when I was younger but always returned to visit fam. I met Sheila E at a private event last year and she was still so beautiful and gracious.

    There used to be a club/bar on Lakeshore Ave. in Oakland run by her father Pete Escovedo. I think it was called "E". Sheila E. used to perform there on occasion. The family are natives of the East Bay area.

    i love the chemistry that her and PRince always had together! both loved the same kind of music, both were genuine artists who loved those old fashioned jam sessions together, and the fact that they remained close all these years says something of the unique character of both. you almost cant separate the two sometimes. for when I think of Prince, one of the first people that comes to mind is Sheila! she must be feeling that loss of her kindred spirit so deep, more so than many because she knew him well and for so long! i would love it if she could help keep his memory alive and help direct this mess of a legacy he left behind! but Sheila, my friend, as a musician, you stand in your own right! a true musician! would love it if you wrote a memoir about your years with Prince and the tour of Purple Rain!
