Saw him in New York @ The Ritz 5/19/88 Every Shade of Love Tour Eddie M was on Sax Kim Cage on co lead background vocals As a special treat Full Force and Cult Jam was in the Building and who was lean over the balcony Lisa Lisa I saw that and said Yeeeeessssssss
Jesse is such a gem. I love the note/chord progressions he'd choose in the solo with the mic play on top of it.. 70s funk/rock/psychedic shit lol, showing his age and experience w that. Takes me like 3 punch ins recording to do tryna fit it into the solo lmao
Michelle 777 prince took a lot of his style from jesse tho. He has his own style yes i agree. Prince is prettier with alot of flash and efrects while jesse is blisteeing skill,speed and insanity lol
Son of Sound many would disagree as jess was looking more like prince in the 80s with style of dress hair music. But they both like little Richard facial hair. Both loved purple. Both are talented. But you will have the comments prince better than jess. Etc.
Michelle 777 that's nonsensw. Anyone in the know, knows who really influenced who. Prince started to mimic jesse, EVERYONE in the time told stories. When Prince first saw Jesse he said "i like how u look i dont even need to hear u play" prince started wearing purple because jesses color was pink, prince curled his hair because jesse had a curly fro, prince started side stepping in his guitart routine because of him watching jesse in time rehearsals. Ive literally talked to people who came up with them all and worked with them and morris has given countless interviews so have a dre cymone ,jellybean ,jerome jam n lewis. Prince was fucking scared of jesse on guitar. He terrified prince. Prince started imitating shit jesse was doing in the early 90s in 2012. Jesse in 87 was a more skilled guitarist than prince ever was. No musician or guitar player who knows anything will tell u prince was ever even remotely close to jesse outside of rhythm guitar. I play and its laughable. Prince uses better effects and variations yes, but thats all.prince used to sabotage the time shows because they used to upstage him and play his stuff better than him rofl go meet some people who know both and who play and go listen to interviews. Prince is the greatest musician weve ever know, but as far as guitar he was jesses bitch.
@Tory ShayeMeaning guitar wise not overall talent. It's well documented & known that Prince had high admiration for Jesse's guitar skills. He often said Jesse scared him competitively. He would always warn Wendy in rehearsals to be ready or Jesse would "cut" her.
Yes very true was almost a threat to Prince They said back when they were all touring prince body guard lock Jesse in a hotel closet Jesse kick his way out prince know he was a bad boy on that guitar 😀
One of the most important pioneers of the Minneapolis Sound. Much respect!
JJ is one of the few guitar players who can still bring me to tears as a grown ass man I his 50’s
Dam go head dude yep 2022 this still sounds good
You can't be taught to play like this.... this is something your
born with!
HE IS NATURALLY TALENTED AND GIFTED BY THE MOST HIGH. 🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶🎸🎶
I'd love to see this man live!
He's on tour NOW! 🌻🖤

Damn, that is some funk right there, better than the studio version.
Greatness comes from greatness. Everyone who was in the TIME band was cold mother shut yo mouth. Guitar greatness in action.
I am Still In LOVE With This MAN!! JUST BRILLIANT !!!
1989 I was the only driving thru my small town in CA blasting this in my car people would stop me and ask who are you playing on your stereo.
@@fredbanaay1567 👍🏾💯👍🏾

Tamie Bear Jesse killin that!
This was the first song I learnt with my first funk band many moons ago.

Ian Davidson one of the greatest guitarist EVER its heartbreaking how underrated n brilliant he is
Son of Sound he's always compared to prince. Prince had his own style.

Prince only messed with top of the line guitarist and Jesse was one that gave him hell back in the in the day with Time.

@@inspectorbudget lol documented where?

Jesse Johnson is a BETTER guitar player than Prince was... With all due respect to Prince (RIP)
Who is prince ????
I mean man
Still great voice, great guitar chops, but sometimes it seems he's too lazy to rehearse the songs.
beatz04 When you're great your great.
Sleestak Robo
Are you thinking what I am thinking,,,,this dude is better than Prince, Eric Clapton, and Jeff beck and he I’ll smoke John Mayer…
he never remembers the lyrics!
vince robinson lol right.
Lol!😁 Who cares? He plays that guitar though.... that’s what I’m talking about.
Who cares about the lyrics?
@@sheisawarenow3753 I said the same thing. Just the guitar playing itself will put you under a spell. 🎸🎶🎸
He can play that guater🎸!! But don't care for the song !!! Sorry.💣
Who cares? The song don't matter.
This is not the sound of brilliants. Sorry, folks! It's like saying trump is a great president
MrFilmoreJr You are a straight hater.
Andrew Collins Well,...it's boring. I hate boredom
MrFilmoreJr You don't know real music. if you say he is boring.
Andrew Collins No, no, I love real music! Music from the day when they really played funk. Maybe it's his style that I can't appreciate.
Andrew Collins Sounds like he just starting playing a few years ago.
