Prince could take any instrument and destroy it, blindfolded. I know. I've witness this. 14 years as a film director for him. Personal friend and colleague and stand-in for Purple Rain and Graffiti Bridge. I MISS him soo much. , Peace and thank you.
pr epstein I've never seen him play any instrument outside of drums/percussion, guitar, bass & keyboards. When & where have you seen him play any other instruments? People say that so much. I love Prince & have followed his whole career. He doesn't play all the instruments people say or he wouldn't hire people like Eric Leeds to play horns on record. You know good & well that if Prince could play all these other instruments so well he would've done it live. Never ever seen it anywhere.
You were so blessed to be a part of his life. God blessed people with gifts and music was his... he left a legacy that will live on. This is one of my favorite performances of his. When he passed three years ago I listened to this non-stop and cried. Time does heal...
I've heard others say it u were there so pay no mind 2 the guy's comment. Sonny T said he's seen him play the Saxophone I've heard he's taken instruments from people and played it handed it back and said this is how I want it 2 sound. He was Smith from the Matrix where he could copy himself on stage u have 2 have a band. Owen Husney also said this his first manager watched him play everything hitting stop and start on the tape I'll believe them.
I feel so blessed in my life to have seen Prince perform live. Sadly it was only just once, but I am soooo thankful I saw him at all. He played in Glasgow (Scotland) on his Diamonds and Pearls tour and it was a life changing experience lol. I also got to touch the foot of SRV’s statue on the banks of The Colorado River in Austin Texas. That was candy for the soul being able to acknowledge his love and his passion for his craft and his audiences too. Rest in Power PRN & SRV Claire xx
For me - Top 5 in my favorite Prince solos. Heard this for the first time in 1992. Pure raw emotion. Jaw dropping shock; chills to this day. One of his greatest guitar solos that most people have no idea exists.
Even in death I'm still in love with this man and his music. wow such talent, there will never be another like my beloved Prince, I love you and miss you.
This gives me chills every time I hear it, as well as when he does Motherless Child. He makes his guitar sing and weep right along with the emotion's in his voice. To do Just My Imagination better than the original artist is just amazing! But we who are "Prince Friend's" already knew this didn't we. Prince I don't think you would truly know while here on earth just how much people around the World truly LOVED YOU! And I don't think the WORLD truly realized it till you were gone. It has been over 3 years & it is still painful, but I thank you for all you did for music, entertainment ( no other put on a live show either it be a small venue, or filled huge concert halls)your poems and your generous charitable that went unnoticed. But most of all a beautiful human who for almost 40 years gave it your all,encouraged new artist's and for that I say THANK YOU. You proved to the World yes you can be cool & LOVE GOD!
since his passing, this is the first prince song i've played. i didn't read any reports, any news, i just carried the pain in my heart. my one dream that i never fulfilled was to see him live. i once wrote a letter to his website, i really hope that he saw it. all i wanted to do was to thank him for bringing so much joy to my life, for so long. i've been listening to prince since the 80s, but he never came to africa, so i never saw him live. there will never be another talent like this in my life time - his music transcended time, his skill on that guitar was so good that he could cure manic depression. wherever you are my friend, i only wish you the same joy, bliss and delight that has been a part of my life for so long through this exquisite music. unto the end of time....
boodah1234 very true he's music was spiritual in a way I've been in his music since I was 3 yrs old and now I'm 37 of age I play guitar and love real music because of this God created person prince and it's sad that today yes today's music is Dead and that why some people are dead in the sound of the music but not us r.i.p.s prince and to u whom wrote this quote on prince music be blessed and my u see the Dawn also u can check out my RUclips page ... Terrell Howard Ryde I have to pages
It blows my mind that this and other just my imagination prince videos on RUclips have so few views, it's by far one of the best performances ever. That guitar solo is epic.
We have to share to reach new listeners. Most of the fans have all of this stuff in our libraries so we don’t have to come to RUclips to hear it and the general public or casual fan doesn’t know it exists so they can’t search for it or get it from the official YT channel.
Prince took one of the Greatest R&B love jams and made it his own, I can never hear this song again without that guitar solo at the end. This version kills the original in every way. And the Original is a Perfect song.
I can't express my feelings during listening of this piece of perfection...it was 1988...this legend was not one step in front of others he was on another planet with alien technology of greatnes in his mind. Perfection.
This is just devastatingly beautiful. When he died, I couldn't cry. About 2 weeks later I had driven somewhere. When I arrived to my destination it was pouring rain outside. I opted to wait it out in the car and found this recording. I cried like a baby and just kept chanting, "Prince Prince Prince....." It was this solo over the drums beating like a heart and the solo was just like all the emotions I was feeling. Devastatingly heartbreaking and Beautiful. RIP our Beloved Prince...Master. This is one of those wish I was there kind of performances.
I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS FOR ALMOST 30 YEARS! Thank you so so much for posting. That guitar solo...I have never before or since heard an artist so deftly express their emotion/sentiment via an instrument. It's absolutely heartbreaking.
I own a CD of that concert and I rember sneaking through a record store and there was a song playing but I did not really care. But when the guitar solo started, I was electified and went straight to one of the employees behind the counter, grab a CD went home and ever since that day this one of my favorite recordings of Prince. Fantastic version of the song and the solo is so powerful so full of emotions, it always gives me goosbumps. I rember driving 3 hours on reapeat of just that song. Could hear it forever. R.I.P. Miss you and your music
I took a week off work to morne his death.. I grew up listening to his music.. there were many musical talents out there but this name in my view the greatest of all time.. R.I.P master..😭😭😭😭
It is breathtaking guitar playing it is incredible His Guitar can take u places like His singing; I just can not get enough of His Everything He Did...He is the One that Did All possible in field of music in every Meaning.Love Love Love...
All this amazing Prince music discovering here on RUclips is just priceless. A wonderful version of song played by the master of music himself, completely mind blowing. love you Prince always, rip
I spoke some people about this concert,years ago. One stayed that night at a friends house,located in a side street to the road where Paard van Troje is located. His friends house was at the other side of the street,in front of the load in/out entry of Paard van Troje and because it was a very hot night,they were at the balcony outside drinking cold white wine.Because of the high temperaturs,the load indoors were open,so when Prince started the concert,the enjoyed the music there,without knowing,Prince was playing. The other man,who told me about this night,was Felix,a stagehand for Hartman(a workforce company). He had to move backline from the Rotterdam stadium "de Kuip",where Prince did 3 shows,to Paard van Troje and saw the whole show side-stage. He is and was a heavenly lucky bastard to be there.
I felt I knew him , when he first came out on an old TV show I just knew he was here to stay, thank you RUclips for this musical stage, Prince I'll always love YOU
Could sleep blissfully to this. Thank you God for creating Prince and for gifting him so greatly. #You are alive in our hearts# RIP in Heaven DearPurpleOne.
America is late discovering Prince. 1999 the music industry said hmmm I think he's talented. Controversy, for You album, I want to be your lover album, Dirty mind got overlooked. My God we were so lucky to have him as long as we did 🤴#RIPTHEGREATEST
I remember discovering this song after bying a bootleg tape in 1989. I became a fan of The Temptations after that ! This guitar solo is clearly an opened window into Prince's mind. song written in 1971.... Merci Boris
When I need to feel free...I go back to this often.. I think this solo of his should have a place of its own somewhere in music history..(and he has many of those) Eyes closed is the best way to follow this guitar... it is absolutely beyond just music to me.. Every time I hear it..I think, wow, Prince had a way to travel to the stars if he wanted to, he had enough energy, skill and feeling to do that somehow. If anything has enough force to defy gravity, to shoot out into space, like a fire comet blazing out leaving the atmosphere, still with an unbearable ability to feel each emotion shedding away, until igniting fire on the way, with clarity and matching power, full speed ahead,..until something rips open and for just a moment one can see a new luminous horizon...that is the vision I hear he had that night..well, it is just my imagination ;)Genius that got high on music...and instilled it with such power and articulation that for those of us who dig... we feel truly grateful for all the deep inspiring journeys.
@@gijsschubert7901 it's not about the technicality. There's a certain feeling here that is just.. unreal. I have listened to tons and tons of music, and there isn' t a whole lot that's truly "transcendental". That word gets thrown around a lot but jesus christ does this make you feel something deep in your body and soul
I can't stop playing it. His music brings me out of a state that isn't always good. His art expression soothes me. The rendition of this song lifts me in ways I cannot describe. Thank you Prince!!!
This is just sheer perfection.. funky, soulful and cascades sensuously along your auditory senses.. truly otherworldly... Thank you dear Prince, for showing us how to be Divine in Human form 💜💜💜💜💜
I thought I had come to grips with his passing but how wrong I was. Just listening to this and revelation I'm in tears all over again. It's unfortunate and good I never saw him perform in person I don't think I could handle it.I sincerely feel for thos who have. I can imagine having those beautiful memories forever branded in my brain.
When they talk about the best guitarists, Prince is very rarely mentioned . Truly Underestimated. He was an absolute Musical Genius, there will never be anyone like him again, Ever! Rest in Paradise forever. Prince was Truly the G O A T ....Greatest of All Time !!! 💜💜💜💜✨️✨️
Great slideshow too! I listened to this about 5 times without watching the vid because I thought it was a still. My imagination has Prince on the lead vocal, lead guitar, drums, synthesizer, string quartet and back up vocals too, but that human metronome is likely Shelia E and someone on keyboards.
Prince purrfects everything he touched.. thru micromanagement...his artists under his label must be 100percent open to his expertise and guidance..he is a starmaker..I👁️ just love him so💙
I still cry and I will forever cry because it's the only way for me to let go of the pain and anger that lives in side of me since His passing ...I jump , I shout , I cry , I yell and yes I even curse ...Why is life so unfair I Miss Him 🥲
So beautiful....I grew up listening to Prince’s music and my first crush yes!!!! I miss him 💜 The greatest 💜 Loved his live concerts first time at Circle Star Theater!! And there after!!💜💜💜💜
It's really nice thank God to be on the same wavelength as some other people I have a really large family and non of them think the same way about the guitar solo as most of us here peace
So glad to c on RUclips so many young people are playing instruments. It's up to all of u 2 carry on real music by real musicians. He would b so proud 2 c u. I grew up in the time when u had to wait 4 the bands 2 set up. Hopefully u children will grow up and carry the torch giving other young one's the opportunity to experience that. I'm 69 now and I'm watching every one of u that I discover just as prince would.KEEP UR WILD SIGN UP. IT WON'T DO U NO HARM...PLAY ON
Prince is the best guitarist of all time; with Hendrix a close second. So many guitarists can be copied note for note, but not this guy. No one can touch this man.
Halle Berry on Twitter asked for everyone's favorite Prince song, and I couldn't do it - it's too tough a question! But this is hands-down the single greatest guitar solo I've ever heard. Sorry but not even the mighty Led Zeppelin & Jimmy Page can equal this. Prince = GOAT. RIP.
@@danmohr2005 How many instruments does Sir. Jimmy Page play? Prince played between 20-30 instruments Prince was a modern day Mozarts thats why he was the greatest guitarist!!
@@willisjr12169 Great observations! Also, just try to fathom that this recording was at an AFTERSHOW. Prince had already played an entire 2.5 hour concert in front of a massive crowd. And he went to a tiny club afterwards, and this is what poured out of him. Un-effing-believable. He was truly an Olympian Gold Medalist of music!
When he was supposedly asked, "What's it like to be the best guitarist in the world " he's supposed to have said " I don't know ask Prince". Not sure if this happened mind.
@@matthewmartin5610 He didn’t. There are many versions of the story; the most famous may be Hendrix being asked and answered the same line but naming BB King instead IIRC

BECAUSE PEOPLE THINK IT IS A LEGEND AND REALLY DONT BELIEVE PRINCE RENDITIONS OF SONGS EXIST!!!!
This song is still traveling through the universe (and keeps traveling and traveling)

The more he plays the guitar solo, the closer he achieves a synchronicity with God that the rest of us will never get within a fraction of reaching.
Lord have mercy! He definitely had lift off. 🚀 He left the stratosphere on that guitar part. Brilliant! ⚜️🌹🥇🌹⚜️

SUCH A GOOD RENDERING OF THIS ICONIC SONG, BY A VERY UNDERRATED MUSICIAN
"Just My Imagination" from 1988. It is divine piece and what a joy to listen over and over again.
Sublime ... this should be released on a future live album just to show the world how AHHH MAZING a Guitar God the man is ....

I still cry and I will forever cry because it's the only way for me to let go of the pain and anger that lives in side of me since His passing
...I jump , I shout , I cry , I yell and yes I even curse ...Why is life so unfair
I Miss Him 🥲
One of THE BEST PRINCE Covers ever!!!!!!!
So beautiful....I grew up listening to Prince’s music and my first crush yes!!!! I miss him 💜 The greatest 💜 Loved his live concerts first time at Circle Star Theater!! And there after!!💜💜💜💜
72000 views for one of the greatest free performances ever.
It's really nice thank God to be on the same wavelength as some other people I have a really large family and non of them think the same way about the guitar solo as most of us here peace
He is playing this in the ethereal realm, a true master.
Best Guitar solo I ever heard!
So glad to c on RUclips so many young people are playing instruments.
It's up to all of u 2 carry on real music by real musicians. He would b so proud 2 c u. I grew up in the time when u had to wait 4 the bands 2 set up. Hopefully u children will grow up and carry the torch giving other young one's the opportunity to experience that. I'm 69 now and I'm watching every one of u that I discover just as prince would.KEEP UR WILD SIGN UP. IT WON'T DO U NO HARM...PLAY ON
1988 Small Club performance! The baddest Aftershow Prince and the Band done!!! Thanks for the post
Prince is the best guitarist of all time; with Hendrix a close second. So many guitarists can be copied note for note, but not this guy. No one can touch this man.
Halle Berry on Twitter asked for everyone's favorite Prince song, and I couldn't do it - it's too tough a question! But this is hands-down the single greatest guitar solo I've ever heard. Sorry but not even the mighty Led Zeppelin & Jimmy Page can equal this. Prince = GOAT. RIP.
@@danmohr2005 How many instruments does Sir. Jimmy Page play? Prince played between 20-30 instruments Prince was a modern day Mozarts thats why he was the greatest guitarist!!
@@willisjr12169 Great observations! Also, just try to fathom that this recording was at an AFTERSHOW. Prince had already played an entire 2.5 hour concert in front of a massive crowd. And he went to a tiny club afterwards, and this is what poured out of him. Un-effing-believable. He was truly an Olympian Gold Medalist of music!
One of the best solo guitar ever play 4 me ! he's a genius, he play (multi-instrument) like a genius. Tanx 4 this video.💜😉
Damm wish there was film for this gig!
He was a great guitar player, in the top ten of all time.
As Eye said N the La La La Means Eye Love U comment section, the only man who can do covers better than the original.
Absolutely brilliant ❤
The man that Eric Clapton called the greatest ever: Prince
he was right!!
Clapton didn’t say that. He admired Prince but never said that.
@@javiceres it's a myth. He never said it
When he was supposedly asked, "What's it like to be the best guitarist in the world " he's supposed to have said " I don't know ask Prince". Not sure if this happened mind.
@@matthewmartin5610 He didn’t. There are many versions of the story; the most famous may be Hendrix being asked and answered the same line but naming BB King instead IIRC
Yes Prince!! I love this!
