Prince didn't even get to rehearse with the rest of the musicians on stage. When he showed up for a rehearsal, the guy who did the first solo kept doing all the solos in the song while Prince watched and strummed along. The producer got pissed and told Petty to talk to him so that Prince could rehearse his solo as well. Prince told the producer "don't worry about it" and said he'd do the solo at the end, and left. So nobody knew what he was gonna do when his solo starts. That's one reason Petty kept giving Prince the sign to keep going, he said you could tell "something special" was happening on stage.
I think a lot of people miss that subtlety in the performance. To think about Prince, used to being the bandleader and doing whatever he wants, checking with Petty to find out just how much space he could take. And Petty, being able to read the band’s performance with someone they hadn’t rehearsed with, knowing how much space to give to make it special without being overdone. 👏
There's even more to the story. A week or so before this show Rolling Stone magazine ran a piece saying that Prince was overrated as a guitar player. No one on stage knew that prince was going to go off the way he did except Harrisons son. This solo was a big FU to Rolling Stone Mag.
Prince was proving point with this performance. Rolling Stone Magazine had put out a list of the greatest guitarists of all time and he wasn't on it and he felt disrespected.
Fair enough feeling disrespected, that's fecking disrespectful. Still, Rolling Stone... What a douchebag magazine anyway, they also used to sh!t all over Queen.
I was pissed 😡 when rolling stones Left Prince off the list. Then they tried to have a make over and make #33. Prince knew they were there. Thats what that strut was about after he left the stage.
@@jodip699 Yes he was invited, but they didnt know what he was going to play in the solo section. Allegedly he didnt even rehearse it, he just made it up on the spot.
"Everyone's just playing, no one's being a hotshot." lol. Prince was the only guy who could indulge in that level of showboating and everyone loves him because he's just that damn good.
Lol the guy that played the other guitar solo is a legend as well. He played his note for note the way Clapton played it in the original, he could of shredded it up like prince did. They gave prince the last spot so he could give rolling stones magazine the middle finger and it was epic! But let's not disrespect the other legends on the stage.
@@phillipthomas119 every guitar makes the guitar sound their signature way, but sorry there are few who can make it sound like Prince....Clapton plays a more heavy sound...Prince was well rounded and could play almost all styles to perfection...The first guy was ok, but he was no prince.
@sigifredoospina7085 I just know Marc Mann is very capable! Prince is great I never said he wasn't just giving some love to another legend. Srv, Jimmy, randy, evh, could all play the way Prince could, don't mean he ain't great as well! I loved the fact they kept it true to the original, while letting Prince give rolling stones magazine the finger! It was epic... but it was never about disrespect on my end...
From THE Beatles White album 1968. George Harrisons induction to hall of Fame! Billy Preston on THE piano, Jeff Lynnes and Tom Pettys voices are great! Marc Mann of Jeff Lynnes band död great on THE earlier guitar solos!(Georges Friend Eric Clapton made then on THE album). Steve Winwood on THE fucking Hammond. I play piano and keyboards can't master THE Hammond organ. Then Prince steals THE show!
George Harrison’s son was playing on stage and obviously loved it. Sometimes a musician just cuts loose, and when Prince did his solo at the end it was amazing!
Not a big fan of Prince. However, his talent is astounding with this performance. Absolutely brilliant. As for the rest of the band…. Epic. What a thrill it must have been to have been there live
This is a “once in a lifetime” performance! We’re blessed to have it recorded! I liken Prince to a modern version of Mozart. The similarities are many. What isn’t mentioned is that this took place at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, where earlier in the night, Prince had been inducted! An absolute prodigy, Prince was a virtuoso guitarist who could’ve played lead for almost any band in the world. Also noteworthy, is the fact that Tom Petty and George Harrison were the best of friends. As well as Jeff Lynn was another member of their close knit circle. They’re families were intertwined, which leads to another point. The young man playing acoustic guitar during this performance, isn’t just another artist. He’s actually Dhanni Harrison, son of the great George Harrison! So this truly was a very special performance! Sadly, not long after, we lost both Prince and Tom Petty. Gods Speed. RIP
The Young Danni Harrison, George's Son enjoys the Heck outta Prince. RIP GEORGE, TOM & PRINCE. TRULY MISSED✨🙏✨🙏✨🙏✨💯. WONDERFUL TRIBUTE TO TRULY FANTASTIC ARTISTS 💯✌️💞💖👌 They All Play their Guitars , Beautifully Done. Prince shows off for Danni. Fall back . To Fun✌️💯
The other singer is Jeff Lynne of ELO (Electric Light Orchestra) & both Tom, Jeff & George along with Bob Dylan & Roy Orbison were all in The Traveling Wilburys.
Back story.... Rolling Stone mag put out a top 100 guitarist list and the snubbed Prince. He didn’t make it and was said to be offended. Hence the toss of the guitar and walk off stage. Prince’s version of the mic drop!
When you said "a whole bunch of superstars, all playing their position. No one's trying to be a hotshot over someone, they're all just humbly up there jammin'.......""paying tribute" My first thought was "oh, no, see Prince has been quietly strumming over in the shadows and that won't last long". Prince was a genius, multi instrumentalist and self taught.
Every artist on the track is amazing, my personal favorite part is how much fun Harrison's son is having up there playing with legends. That must've been amazing!
I'd like to believe that Prince threw his guitar into heaven, for George. It was nice to see his son, Danhi, but sad, knowing both Tom and Prince would soon no longer be with us.
Jeff Lynne not only was the lead singer of ELO he also was with George Harrison,Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, and Roy Orbison in the Super Group The Travelling Wilburys
Both George Harrison & Prince were both being inducted in The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame that year (2004) That is why Prince was given a solo. It was planed but not planed. Yes is was unrehearsed. Prince itinerary was crazy. He was was, being inducted, he just came out with musicology album, was starting his tour & was doing a lot of promoting. The producers of that event & some of the musicians thought he was being shady. Prince has worked hard to be the musician he became. That man was hard working 24/7 Yeah that’s George Harrison son Dhani Harrison. He ran back stage after the performance to shake Prince’s hand & tell him he did a awesome job on his Dads song. I see George Harrison personality rub off on his kid in a good way👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Prince was notorious/infamous throughout the '80s for his ever-present & over-bearing bodyguards who would often be seen carrying him around bridal-style or piggyback, so that was kind of a nod back to those crazy days LoL
that album is horrible. Please don't check it out. Also the 21 instruments was a marketing thing. He counted many instruments that are played the same as others but are technically different.
I subscribed because of your series of reactions to The Warning (my current favorite band in the world)...but my all time favorite artist is Prince. You can certainly find songwriters, producers, live performers, instrumentalists, bandleaders etc. who are just as good, but find me someone else who was world class at ALL of those disciplines before turning 30. Prince was in his own universe.
People don't want to give Prince his props. There's a lot of talent and greatness on that stage. But Prince is on another level. It's almost unfair. Music God.
Legend has it that around that time Rolling Stone Magizine did a top 100 guitarist in music history and Prince wasnt on it...so this performance was a F.U ROLLING Stones MAG
Having seen the original video a few times (umm, quite a few!!), I had a big grin on my face when he said that, thinking, yes well, just wait!! And, also not a shot at Prince, who was an absolute genius talent, composer, lyricist, multi-instrumentalist, love his legacy of work.
Even when Prince is playing his solo, he still makes sure that when the vocals come in, they always have room. A guitar wizard, and a brilliant team player.
Jeff Lynne's voice is amazing......well, this whole performance is amazing. Jeff Lynne is the lead singer of ELO (electric light orchestra)....If you have not reacted to ELO, please do.
You can hear Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, and George Harrison singing alongside Roy Orbison and Bob Dylan in their supergroup, the Traveling Wilburys. Check out their songs "End of the Line" and "Handle with Care." As for Prince, the guy was the complete package and a musical genius. There are several songs that showcase his guitar-playing abilities, including "Purple Rain," "Let's Go Crazy," and the obscure "Peach." I had the privilege of seeing him perform live, during his Musicology tour. He wailed on guitar, then proceeded to rock out on bass, drums, and keyboard. That was easily one of my favorite concerts that I've attended..
Awesome Tribute by all musicians. I love how George's son reacts when Prince starts to play. The young man light up. Thats was great! I love how Prince kept to form being himself, the awesome entertainer and performer and didnt try to be anyone other than Prince. They got a standing ovation after the song was over. Tom Petty loved Prince's performance - you can see him smile when Prince was performing. I guess its easy to forget many of these musicians are friends. It was a great tribute not a memorial service. Prince put his heart and soul into this tribute. Winwood told him twice during this tribute to keep playing even when Winwood was suppose to take over. Bravo to all involved!!!
Prince has been known many times to have a bodyguard type guy who stands next to the stage to catch him, also that guitar that got thrown up in the air, no one on stage or in the audience ever saw it come back down. There’s a mystery for ya.
I was lucky enough to see Prince in concert 5X. If you want to see something AMAZING, watch his Sign o' the times concert. It was just released about a month ago, on You Tube. Even if you are not a Prince fan, just his showmanship will be inspiring. Great reaction video! My deearest Prince, I will miss you until I get to meet you in heaven 💜
Nice little coffee cup, Suze! My favourite version is by the late, great Mr Jeff Healey. He was a blind guitarist who played like a steel guitar, on his lap.
Amazing how George Harrison's son (Dhani) is the spitting image of his dad. He looks exactly like his dad looked, when the Beatles debuted on the Ed Sullivan show almost 60 yrs ago.
Regarding the comment that all of the others thinking, “I could do that too”…if they could there would be a youtube video somewhere out there witnessing such. Prince was one of one. We will not see his like again.
Piano-Billy Preston (solo artist) / Organ-Steve Winwood (solo artist) / Guitars left to right / Marc Mann (many bands) Jeff Lynne (ELO) Tom Petty (Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers) Dhani Harrison(George Harrison's son) Prince (Prince and the Revolutions) Scott Thurston (bass) Steve Ferrone (drums)
George Harrison wrote this song when he was with the Beatles. This awesomeness starts with From Left to Right Front Row: Steve Winwood (Beginning Guitar Solos), Jeff Lynne (Vocals, Guitars from ELO), Tom Petty (Vocals, Guitars), Dhani Harrison (George Harrison's Son, who this version was for at the RRHoF Ceremonies), someone on guitar that I am not familiar with & the Prince!! All of these guys killed it, but Prince was on another level here!
So this is rock & roll hall of fame ‘04. George Harrison was being posthumously being inducted as a solo artist/singer-songwriter in his own right having been inducted years earlier as a member of The Beatles, although Lennon & McCartney were the dominant songwriters for TB’s this was written by GH and featured on The Beatles White Album (‘68). Some on here amongst a slew of world-class musicians are Tom Petty, ELO’s Jeff Lynne, Steve Winwood and the young guitarist behind and to the left of Tom Petty, that’ll be DHANI HARRISON, George’s son who is the mirror image of a young George 😊🇬🇧🇺🇸

Love watching but hate watching all that talent that's gone
I think he was checking to make sure Dhani was happy with it too

@@cocolossal69 They also gave Led Zeppelin's first few albums bad reviews to the point that Jimmy Page refused to talk to them for his entire career.
I was pissed 😡 when rolling stones Left Prince off the list. Then they tried to have a make over and make #33. Prince knew they were there. Thats what that strut was about after he left the stage.
I don’t think Prince gave a shit what Rolling Stone Magazine thought of his playing.
That what that strut was about. Directed at Rolling stone magazine
I hope Prince gave his guitar a cigarette afterwards...
Honestly, Prince was one of a kind. I miss that guy. Also Tom Petty.
Unoriginal REGURGITATED comment
Reminds me of Van Halen's live performance of Eruption, when he gave his guitar a cigarette, lmao.
Prince was the best we'll ever see (coz Stevie Wonder can't dance!)
They didn’t know what Prince was going do, he just turned up and walked on and and made his guitar weep! Brilliant
I've found out that Prince didn't rehearse this, just showed up and made it work.
Oh it didn’t weep. It wailed. 😭
No, wrong. He was invited, Dhani Harrison said that he'd give him a go when to start..if you watch close enough you'll see his smile and nod.
@@jodip699 Yes he was invited, but they didnt know what he was going to play in the solo section. Allegedly he didnt even rehearse it, he just made it up on the spot.
"Everyone's just playing, no one's being a hotshot." lol. Prince was the only guy who could indulge in that level of showboating and everyone loves him because he's just that damn good.
When you ask for Prince, you get Prince. And they knew it
Thank you! How to say you're a hater without saying you're a hater!
Lol the guy that played the other guitar solo is a legend as well. He played his note for note the way Clapton played it in the original, he could of shredded it up like prince did.

I think you might have spoken too soon, before Prince gets involved 🤣
😂
I love Prince because he can make you laugh, cry, and jump with joy in the space of one song.
So true Daniel Cowan, that's exactly why Prince in my opinion is one of the greatest musicians that ever lived.
Dhani's laughing face as Prince nearly falls backwards off of the stage - priceless!
I like how everyone that reacts to this wonders where the guitar went
While it's simple. The guy who caught Prince when leaning back, caught the guitar
It went to heaven
Prince is Still in heaven looking for it!
From THE Beatles White album 1968.
George Harrisons induction to hall of Fame!
Billy Preston on THE piano, Jeff Lynnes and Tom Pettys voices are great! Marc Mann of Jeff Lynnes band död great on THE earlier guitar solos!(Georges Friend Eric Clapton made then on THE album).
Steve Winwood on THE fucking Hammond. I play piano and keyboards can't master THE Hammond organ.
Then Prince steals THE show!
Best comment I saw on the subject: George caught it
George Harrison’s son was playing on stage and obviously loved it. Sometimes a musician just cuts loose, and when Prince did his solo at the end it was amazing!
Dhani looks jus' like his father. Hair is shorter.
Not a big fan of Prince. However, his talent is astounding with this performance. Absolutely brilliant. As for the rest of the band…. Epic. What a thrill it must have been to have been there live

For everyone else... the son is the one behind Tom that looks exactly like George. IMO, the best Beatle.
Hands-down, the best guitar solo I've ever seen/heard. Full stop. Amazing how under-appreciated Prince was as a guitarist.
It’s very good, but there’s solos that blow that one away…see Gary Moore
subjective. All subjective @@mr.smithgnrsmith7808

Prince, doing the most since 1979. A tribute to Harrison and a middle finger to RSM💜💜💟💟💟💛🎸🎸🎸
I regret not knowing how talented Prince was when he was alive.
A lot of comments when Prince died about how he'd gone up to get that guitar. RIP.
Hahaha and aw RIP
George’s son on acoustic is absolutely loving it❤️
The first time the band so Prince do his guitar solo was when they filmed it live. They had no clue what Prince was going to do.
I'd like to believe that Prince threw his guitar into heaven, for George. It was nice to see his son, Danhi, but sad, knowing both Tom and Prince would soon no longer be with us.
Jeff Lynnes vocal and harmonies are amazing.
Agree!
According to an article I read, Prince never rehearsed for this performance. He improvised the whole thing! 😳😍😍😍
Jeff Lynne not only was the lead singer of ELO he also was with George Harrison,Tom Petty, Bob Dylan, and Roy Orbison in the Super Group The Travelling Wilburys

I've listened to this performance for a couple of years now, still get emotional, can't accept that Petty and Prince are gone.
It was nice to see that they let Prince have the spotlight because he is in the top 10 of guitarist.
Prince was notorious/infamous throughout the '80s for his ever-present & over-bearing bodyguards who would often be seen carrying him around bridal-style or piggyback, so that was kind of a nod back to those crazy days LoL
Prince kicks ass! RIP Prince!
We need more Prince reactions!
I was just thinking this
I love how George's son is loving it
WTF? Only 196 thumbs up?! This is a classic, performed by legends!
Prince plays 21 instruments at master level. You should check out his Batman soundtrack, he played everything.
He played everything on alot of his albums, especially his original 2!
Jajajaja de razón es un asco ese soundtrack
Man, I can't even list 21 instruments without looking them up, lol, and I'm a musician.
On Prince’s first album he played all 27 instruments.
that album is horrible. Please don't check it out. Also the 21 instruments was a marketing thing. He counted many instruments that are played the same as others but are technically different.
Prince slayed that shit! Prince was a musical and lyrical, genius! RIP player

YEAH BABY !!! AND PRINCE SELF TAUGHT HIMSELF ALL THE INSTRUMENTS HE PLAYED !!!! I GET GOOSEBUMPS EVERTIME I SEE THESE !!!😁👏
6:39 he locked in and turned up. He was truly awesome. And the rest of the players all stayed with him. They are all great I enjoyed the whole show
Tom's and Jeff's voice fits this song perfectly.
George caught the guitar ❤️
Prince was inducted in the hall of fame at this show.
people did not realize it, but Prince was on a EHV/SRV level as a guitar player
That guitar went to heaven to wait for his 💜
I've watched this video dozens of times and it never ceases to amaze me. What a wonderful tribute to george
People don't want to give Prince his props. There's a lot of talent and greatness on that stage. But Prince is on another level. It's almost unfair. Music God.
Most talent artist I have ever seen live. In 1990s I seen him twice in concert. There was no one to beat him xx💜💜💜
Legend has it that around that time Rolling Stone Magizine did a top 100 guitarist in music history and Prince wasnt on it...so this performance was a F.U ROLLING Stones MAG
Wolf HunterZ 'no ones trying to be a hotshot'......Prince 'hold my beer'........Not a shot at Prince, lol, he is amazing and made the show

Bruh. I thought the same thung. Lmao
They once asked Eric Clapton what is it like to be the best guitarist in the world? His response, "I don't know, I'm not Prince"
The young guy on Tom Petty's left is Dhani Harrison, George's son.
Mmmmm, Prince makes that guitar SING.
When he tilted it to heaven made me tear up. As if to say this solo is for you george. Absolute beauty of a solo from the best guitarist ever
Holy shit! That was a *mic drop* on STEROIDS!!! 🤘🏼 🎸
Merry Christmas! 🎅 ☃️🎄🎁
Naughty to upstage but the world and everyone needed to realise the magic of this man. God given gift and he knew who to thank.
Even when Prince is playing his solo, he still makes sure that when the vocals come in, they always have room. A guitar wizard, and a brilliant team player.
Jeff Lynne's voice is amazing......well, this whole performance is amazing. Jeff Lynne is the lead singer of ELO (electric light orchestra)....If you have not reacted to ELO, please do.
Prince. 🔥🔥🔥
Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne and Prince were goddamn amazing in this. Dhani definitely loved what Prince did lol.
RSM didnt listed him top 100 guitar players --- this is his "hold my beer" performance.
This is a once in a lifetime performance
Prince was always the coolest cat in the room.

I love that I can see the love in his eyes for Tom Petty it’s so obvious
More Prince , please !!!
Prince stole the show in the end superb. 🎸💪😍 such a good performance of all artists on this stage woow
There are moments when you see sheer wonder on Tom Petty's face -- and this is a guy who played alongside the amazing Mike Campbell for decades!
Not only just cool. Crisp perfection blended. Each note was spot on. One of a kind
Prince has been known many times to have a bodyguard type guy who stands next to the stage to catch him, also that guitar that got thrown up in the air, no one on stage or in the audience ever saw it come back down. There’s a mystery for ya.

From the 'Concert for George' concert & double CD. Both great.
the best part is the cheeky "you guys know I'm the shit" looks he gives the other legends
“I love how there all playing their position no-one trying to be a superstar”….enter Prince.
Nice little coffee cup, Suze! My favourite version is by the late, great Mr Jeff Healey. He was a blind guitarist who played like a steel guitar, on his lap.
lol thanks and that is so cool.
"No one's trying to be a hot shot" lmao later in the video............
Such Talent all in One Place. ✨🙏✨
Rare musicianship I fear is slowly disappearing.....
When Prince looked over at Tom Petty it wasn't to say, "I know you Love it", he was asking permission to keep going.
Most great thing is that prince came straight from the aireport and thit this performance whitout a rehearsal or nothing. Haha
Amazing how George Harrison's son (Dhani) is the spitting image of his dad. He looks exactly like his dad looked, when the Beatles debuted on the Ed Sullivan show almost 60 yrs ago.

Prince was one of one. We will not see his like again.
lol you're delusional but yes he was one of one..as many artist are.
Say what you want that is one of the best solo's ever.
The kid is Dhani Harrison son of George Harrison who was a Beatle and The song was his While my guitar gently weeps.
Piano-Billy Preston (solo artist) / Organ-Steve Winwood (solo artist) /
Guitars left to right / Marc Mann (many bands) Jeff Lynne (ELO) Tom Petty (Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers) Dhani Harrison(George Harrison's son) Prince (Prince and the Revolutions)

You can see the big guy by prince side, clearly holding the guiter prince through up ... took me years but i finally know lol
George Harrison wrote this song when he was with the Beatles.
This awesomeness starts with From Left to Right Front Row: Steve Winwood (Beginning Guitar Solos), Jeff Lynne (Vocals, Guitars from ELO), Tom Petty (Vocals, Guitars), Dhani Harrison (George Harrison's Son, who this version was for at the RRHoF Ceremonies), someone on guitar that I am not familiar with & the Prince!!
All of these guys killed it, but Prince was on another level here!
"Everyone playing their position " and then their was Prince 🤴 🤎🤎🤎🖤🖤🖤
The Wolf Hunters- “No one being a hotshot.”
Prince- “Hold my crown!”
Great song by a great song writer and musician played by greats...having said that Prince was preaching.....
So this is rock & roll hall of fame ‘04.

Some on here amongst a slew of world-class musicians are Tom Petty, ELO’s Jeff Lynne, Steve Winwood and the young guitarist behind and to the left of Tom Petty, that’ll be DHANI HARRISON, George’s son who is the mirror image of a young George 😊🇬🇧🇺🇸
lol about the humble ,no show-off comment right before Prince comes out.
Prince was an absolute genius.
he didnt have to play the guitar he merely suggested chords and it had to obey
