Steve Vai loved Prince, he did a tribute talking about Prince as well, its on youtube but Prince was a Vai fan as well. When Prince passed and they cleared his house, he had Tender Surrender on CD by Steve Vai in his CD collection. Make sense too, i don't worship zodiac signs, but they are both Gemini's haha. I just think they had similar energy as well, and YES Sir! most Prince fans know exactly who Vai is, Prince fans love great musicianship, so happy you brought him up, he's such a legend too. Hope some time in the future you can react to Prince "i'm yours" it's only audio, from his first album "For You" where he plays every instrument & sings everything. it's Prince at 17 doing a killer bass guitar vs electric guitar solo but he's battling himself on the album, it's a must hear for all guitarists! and imo his best guitar show off skills on record. Great reaction dude and your knowledge is so enriching
Oh wow! I have to check out the album version! I haven't forgotten what we talked about via email, been crazy busy the past several days, I'm hoping to do a reaction video to the one you suggested this week :)
Another shout out for 'Question of U' live also from 1990 - starts off with piano and moves on to showcase his crazy Model 'C' guitar (made by Auerswald guitars) as seen in the 'Alphabet St' video. If you've never seen this guitar, he used it 1988-1990
Michael B. on drums (another favorite of mine, dude was a beast). Yeah 1990 and the Lovesexy era are by far my favorite for guitar tone. There is an absolute goldmine of audio recordings from live shows, aftershows, rehearsals, etc. from ‘88. For example I regularly listen to his iconic performance of Just My Imagination, and the rehearsal version of Feel U Up (from the same year).
That guitar is one of the many CLOUD GUITARS he had. In Purple Rain it was white, this is blue but there are Clouds in yellow, purple, gold, sky blue, dark blue, peach and ( at least) in orange.
Hey, I don't know if you've already seen it, but the Prince superbowl press conference is terrific. It's Prince and the band doing a ten minute concert for an audience of deadbeat reporters and football insiders. It's amazing.
This version of the 'cloud' guitar Prince called the 'Blue Angel' which he used on and is most associated with the Lovesexy '88 tour. Seeing on video dulls the color quite a bit - in reality it was a really vivid almost electric blue. This particular guitar sound that you're a big fan of (and I love too) was THE sound of the Lovesexy tour - you gotta checkout Live in Dortmund '88, especially 'Sister', 'Let's go Crazy' and 'Purple Rain' itself - AWESOME sound!...
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar You truly won't be disappointed bro. When he plays Let's Go Crazy it's towards the end of the concert yet his energy levels are still on fire! 'The Cross' is another great one in that concert 👍🎸
Yes, yes, yes..! So, glad you got around to doing this version. I think that it's fair to say at this point that the flanger effect is kinda' a Prince signature. I'm not sure about his detailed guitar gear history, but its prominent use first hit my radar on the album, "Controversy" back in 1981 (another fine work constructed at the Kiowa Trail Home Studio in Chanhassen, MN). From the early 80s through the 2009 - 2010 shows, that guitar effect is applied at key moments. That guitar tone you noted is everything and the Lovesexy/Peach & Black era guitar tone (kinda' sorta' late 80s - early 90s) is right up there with his best concert sound. Every version of Bambi I've heard is short (maybe the Undertaker version is longer?), but if you're in the mood for a longer listen, then consider going back to under-appreciated Montreux 2009 set for a guitar-driven, funk-infused version of "All the Critics Love U..." If you want to really, really stretch it out, then that probably means taking on the Purple Rain solo from the Syracuse, NY show in 1985.
Great post as always! Yes I have been starting to notice he uses flange to add extra emphasis on certain parts, he is brilliant in so many ways :) There's always more to see, hear and learn from him.
Hi my Friend. Dave Rusen made Prince's cloud guitars for the most part. Schecter was used to make the copies he sold on his tour and through his fan club. No where near the same quality. Also since he has passed, Paisley Park has sold re-issues of the cloud in different colors. I have one in white but its not accurate to the movie. Dave Rusen also made several copies of Princes famous Hohner (HS Anderson) Mad Cat guitar as the Hohner Mad Cat became hard to find. Also he made other tele variants. The cloud guitar in this video is like a teal / blue. As for having a Steve Vai feel, this song was part of his self titled album in 1979.
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar - It was a sad day to see a great leader pass. I have no doubt we will rise again under Putin's leadership. Uncle Ivan sends you his best from Heaven.
This has become my new favorite Prince performance. That tone reminds me of that 80’s heavy tone I loved as a teen. Hey Brian I know you have did some pedal videos and demonstrated a clean tone you like. I think some more videos demonstrating how you dial in tones for different genres you’ve played could be cool.
The lovely thing is u mentioned the vai riff But bambi was recorded before vai flexible album vai solo effort after zappa im a massive vai fan He did a version of tender surrender when prince had passed away which was beautiful Anyways another great review from the heart keep on keeping on my brother
Great reaction. I’ve heard of the Steve Vai connection (mutual respect). I think Prince drew from a lot of different influences but the final performance and/or sound almost always has an original feel to it. The actual sound and music from this song probably pre-date the Steve Vai connection. Prince recorded the studio version in 1979 and this performance tracks the original pretty closely, but I do hear an overall similarity. As you suggested, I think both artists are original enough in their own rights that neither was necessarily copying.
To answer this question schecter make the reissue of the guitar but the cloud guitar, but the one Prince play are were made by Dave rusan and the gear he using for this song is a Mesa Boogie Mark III with Bag End D12-M Cabinet With cab mic being a mix of a sennheiser MD 441, Crown PZM-306 and Neumann TLM 170 microphones. And pedals SD-1 Super Overdrive, Boss VB-2 Vibrato or BF-2 Flanger and Colorsound Wah
Steve Vai I remember from DLR band because that was the very first CD I purchased back in the day. And of course from the movie CrossRoads. When I saw Vai's fingers run app and down the guitar I said to myself Holy Sh** amazing. Prince did do a classic Roc trio of him on guitar, Sonny T (Thompson) on bass, and Michael Bland on drums. Sonny T. was the man that Prince looked up to musically when they were in school. Check out the live version of the song Dreamer on Jay Leno back in 2009 that's the band. Keep these videos coming I'm enjoying myself and like discovering new artist that I may have passed over. 💯👍
PRINCE is playing a *(BLUE💙 ☁️ CLOUD GUITAR) he had a WHITE🤍, YELLOW💛, PEACH🍑, PURPLE💜, and BLACK🖤. If you look at his earlier years PRINCE has a video for his song WHY YOU WANNA TREAT ME SO BAD? *(ANDRE CYMONE) his bass players guitar is the earliest version of the famously fashion CLOUD ☁️ GUITAR🎸 🤓👌🏽
Very interesting Henri, I'm going to check that out. I really love reading your comments and I appreciate you taking the time to watch the videos and comment :)
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar THX'Z for acknowledging me I made a correction regarding the song that gives a glimpse of ANDRE CYMONE playing the famously known CLOUD GUITAR...the song is "WHY YOU WANNA TREAT ME SO BAD" ? 🎶 RUclips VIDEO 🤓👌🏽
It's an understatement to say Prince influenced a lot of guitarists just like he also had influences too : one of the best examples is at the 5min30sec mark of The Black Keys "Weight of love" that sounds like the end of "Why do you wanna treat me so bad?".
You missed the lead up to BAMBI which is really incredible. Starts with Michael Bland's (my favorite Prince drummer) kick drum and Prince playing guitar and he even goes into a solo BEFORE Bambi even starts. You really need to go back and watch that intro because it's an absolutely incredible way to build up to the song. THIS is the definitive version of BAMBI for me although Prince really f*$&ed up with this live arrangement as he left off the second and third verses which sucks because a FULL length performance of the song would've been bad ass! Prince's solo on this is killer and the outro guitar solo and ending is perfection! Watching this reaction video, the ending of the song still raises the hair on my neck. EVERY TIME I WATCH IT. The tone, the soloing, the effects, Michael's POWERFUL drumming all make this so incredible.
Ur mission, should U choose to accept it is to go forth and let people know how accomplished a musician he is. Like he said, Real music Real musicians.
The Schecter versions of the cloud guitars were reproductions that were sold to the public. The versions that Prince played were custom guitars built by Dave Rusan circa 1983, and were modeled after a bass design that was built by Jeff Levin, in the early 70’s. I believe that Andy Beech made a few for Prince later on, but definitely not Schecter.
You like doing these Prince videos. That’s cool! Have you checked out the Undertaker video, with performances of Honkey Tonk Woman, Bambi etc just him, bass and drums.
This is the Prince guitar in the Smithsonian and the original cloud guitar that was in the movie Purple Rain. It went from White to Peach to blue to finally end up as a yellow guitar.
Um, no. The original Purple Rain guitar is alive and kicking and is still white. He had numerous Clouds, in different colours, however some were repainted.
@@jjjones8609 interesting that the Smithsonian has the Purple Rain cloud after it had been repainted. (The website describes the history) Very Prince to have someone repaint an iconic guitar though! He never did care for the rules much did he? "when they tell me to walk a straight line, I put on crooked shoes" 😂
Thank you so much. The real reason I started this channel last summer was that I found there was so much confusion with learning the guitar/music theory etc... on RUclips. I've posted several lessons directed at beginners just starting out to get them on the right track right away... hopefully as my channel grows I will get back to doing some more lesson videos... for now I'm enjoying the ride with these reaction videos :) Your post meant a lot to me. Thank you.
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar The video on how to split the fretboard up by using the 5th fret as it is the note below... Brilliant. I've not got a guitar with me at the moment but when I watched it... Light bulb moment.
Actually the Japanese writing spells Princes' name and 'Minneapolis' is written also on some of his other outfits in Japanese on that tour. Thats Michael Bland on drums from Minneapolis. He's known for the Kentucky Fried Chicken hat. John Blackwell came on board around 2000.
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar Not really sure as to how that style came to be for him, but he lots of times wore them shaped as such (KFC bucket style). Personally I believe it represented some form of tribal connection. Don't quote me.
One of my favorite clips of his playing. This "Cloud" guitar was made by David Rusan, and they would be made by him until the late 90's. After that, Schecter would start to produce them for Prince and for consumers
David Rusan deserves a lot of credit for the guitars he created. Happy to be corrected but I believe the HS Anderson/Hohner Madcat that we all know was the major guitar throughout his career was also recreated by Dave Rusan so that Prince had a few of them. As he was always throwing them around, they'd get broken and damaged so to have a few of them meant he could be a little more cavalier! I've seen one at Paisley Park that is definitely the one he used at Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, but I've seen a few that have toured as part of the "Prince guitars collection exhibition" and they are the Hohner replicas made under the Hohner "The Prinz" name. I'm lucky enough to have a 1988 The Prinz before they lost the lawsuit and had to change the Fender Tele headstock design. I see those Hohner copies passed off as Prince's own but the truth is Dave Rusan had made duplicates of his original HS Anderson one.
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar I'll have a go at weaving it together as accurately as I can. Hohner made a fender-style tele in the mid-70s under a Japanese manufacturer called HS Anderson "Madcat" - a varnished maple with leopard-print pickguard. (Prince bought one at a gas station in late-70s and it became his go to guitar for his whole career) Once Prince became famous, Hohner approached him to license the guitar with his name and he declined. So they released it as "The Prinz" instead. I think from around 1985 and the Purple Rain Superstardom era. However the headstock was a direct copy of Fender's. So Fender sued Hohner for that and Hohner had to change the headstock design - which changed the model to "Te Prinz" (no "h") post-1988 and the lawsuit loss. The most desirable models then are the accurate 1985 to 1988 "The Prinz" models. As I mentioned, it was believed Prince was actually using these Hohners but in fact Dave Rusan had recreated several copies of the original HS Anderson "Madcat" for Prince to use. Over the years he had several - one that sprayed fluid from the neck (during his very early risqué days he would simulate you know what with the guitar and spray the audience!) and, if you look at the guitar at the Superbowl or RnR Hall of Fame, you can see another with damage around the upper parts of the body where it had taken impacts from being thrown around.
Yeah, you did that the Tokyo Dome now 😄😄😄😄😄 Cool 😀😀 Of course we know Steve Vai 😀😀 I will never forget, when I first saw him playing For the love of god. Oh my dear 😀😀 New tip: 😃😃😃 Perhaps you make one day a reaction video of great girl/woman Orianthi, when she played Voodoo Child 2017 at Skyville. Rrrrrrrrrrr😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😃😃😃 Greetings Pat
This is still a truncated clip of the whole of this performance. The full version has him soloing on his own for about 30 seconds before he starts the song and it's pretty cool.
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar It's worth doing. Maybe do Bambi from 2 or 3 times in his career under one video? We are happy to stay with you for as long as you want to talk Prince!
I will put it this way, Steve vai might not have the Swag that prince has on stage with the guitar but Mr Vai is right there next to prince in guitar prowess!!!!! just not sure if Mr Vai has covered other genres like Prince did. Maybe you can give me some imput on that my freind!!!
I think I mentioned that Steve Vai believes Prince covered him but there's confusion around it being Villanova Junction and Tender Surrender. Here's the clip that people reference - ruclips.net/video/T1cnrbrInPo/видео.html - because the bootleg calls it Tender Surrender. However, Prince had been playing Villanova Junction regularly in soundchecks, rehearsals, etc for a few years at least by then. There's a clip of Steve Vai mentioning the bootleg and it makes sense because they start so similarly. This version of Bambi is a very solid live one - shame about the early 90s video editing so you can't concentrate on the hands and fingers. His band at that time wasn't yet the start of the Michael Bland on drums / Sonny Thompson on bass / Barbarella on keys that from mid-91 to mid-95 was a killer band. One of this absolute best - perhaps the best in terms of being able to tackle anything thrown at them. You see a few leftovers from the Sign O The Times/Lovesexy era here like Levi Seacer Jr and Miko Weaver who are phenomenal musicians but are being held back by the positions they're having to play here. Great clip, enjoyed the reaction. Don't be afraid to really geek out on any of his guitar work here. I'd love to know about scales and figures and hammer ons and all that guitar jargon! :D
Great post as always my man, I'm happy with how things are progressing but not to compare but as I see Rick Beato on his channel, I feel I have much to offer the musical community, I don't think I have found my stride yet on RUclips but I think we are on the right track, I think you gave me an idea to help take things to the next level.... :)
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar I watch the odd Beato video but I don't hang with him as he seems to like fundamentally different things from his music to me. His musical theory knowledge is incredible and his ability to play by ear - but it doesn't bring me in to the videos. Taking what is happening from a theory point of view and then speaking that in a way that the layman can appreciate - now that'd be gold. And a differentiator. There are plenty of straight reaction videos on here. To have a direction that the analysis comes from is unique.
I believe there was more than one provider of the cloud.prince several.a couple changed colour, one was snapped in half during a performance and was repaired and resprayed a new colour.originaly the cloud design was taken from a bass.the bass in question was modelled on an early guitar,can't remember the name,was something like a sitar but my memory gets bad sometimes.there is a video on tube showcasing his guitars.you should do a reaction on his guitars and bass that would be awesome.you could tell us what hardware he uses on them . I still don't know what pickups he uses on his madcatz honor Tele his favourite rippin guitar . Don't you think Metallica could have done a sweet version of Bambi too .Steve Vai is a beast on guitar .it would be interesting to know who Steve was most influenced by.i imagine similar great guitarist that prince liked and learned from watching them play. Nice vid yes 💜💜💜
Great post as always Sly! I'd love to do a reaction video to that video where he is showcasing his guitars! I'm going to be using Instagram more now, so follow me @yesyoucanplayguitar as I'll be posting a lot of guitar stuff, demonstrations etc... message me on Instagram when you do and say "It's Sly" :)
Did some research and he performed Tender Surrender at Paisley Park 30 Sep 2000. Can’t find any recordings online though. Who knows, it could be in that vault of his…
the story was that Steve Vai had just acquired a new bootleg Prince recording. He looked at the tracklist and saw Tender Surrender and thought it was a Prince song, just happened to have the same name as his. Then when he played it and it turned out to be a cover of Vai's song, Steve;s mind was blown that Prince covered him.
@@gabriels1869 ruclips.net/video/T1cnrbrInPo/видео.html The bootleg is labeled Tender Surrender but it's the same Villanova Junction he'd been playing since the late-80s. From what I've heard on the clips where he addresses it, Steve heard the first few bars and figured it was his song - but the reality is the starts sound the same and I think he never listened long enough to hear them diverge.
@@thesolitaryadventurer Prince really was a one man Woodstock lol, Havens Motherless Child , Santana Soul Sacrifice and Hendrix Villanova Junction all performed then.. later covered by Prince, imaging him watching it and thinking 🤔 I could do that 😳☔️☔️at 11 years old… maybe inspired him to pick the Axe 🎸 up 🤔
NOPE the cloud guitar was created by dave rusan he made the purple rain cloud guitar and some other cloud but the other builder who made guitars for him after was andy beech
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar they are independent but after some time prince ask schecter to build for him some clouds and symbol guitars because they was much quicker to build
I found a link to the entire performance, I have it saved and will break the performance down to individual songs and do videos with them. Great suggestion :)
Absolutely, is there a song, UFO video you would like me to react to. It's not Michael Schenker but close, I did a reaction video to Sails of Charon from the Scorpions but it was blocked so it will be on my Patreon account in a few weeks when it is up and running...

Not a video to comment on but something you might be interested in, a really fascinating interview with Peggy McCreary, the legendary engineer at Sunset Sound who worked with Prince and Van Halen among others. It's a really interesting and long interview with great anecdotes and insights. It's in a couple of parts and Dweezil Zappa is one of the hosts. Settle down with a drink or two and enjoy! ruclips.net/video/WCswxx3ewsI/видео.html
Amazing interview - and Peggy doesn't take any shit. She says it just like she sees it. As the years rolled on and the yes men arrived, it's refreshing for Peggy to speak now and say what she loved, hated, admired, and disrespected. It's true opinion. That interview is possibly my favourite of anyone in the Prince camp. She doesn't have an axe to grind and she witnessed the star to superstar journey.

Boss VB-2 Vibrato or BF-2 Flanger and Colorsound Wah
AMAZING post! I really appreciated that info, you have done your homework for sure my Sith friend :)
Steve Vai I remember from DLR band because that was the very first CD I purchased back in the day. And of course from the movie CrossRoads. When I saw Vai's fingers run app and down the guitar I said to myself Holy Sh** amazing.
Prince did do a classic Roc trio of him on guitar, Sonny T (Thompson) on bass, and Michael Bland on drums. Sonny T. was the man that Prince looked up to musically when they were in school. Check out the live version of the song Dreamer on Jay Leno back in 2009 that's the band. Keep these videos coming I'm enjoying myself and like discovering new artist that I may have passed over. 💯👍
I will definitely do that! I hope you are doing well :)
PRINCE is playing a *(BLUE💙 ☁️ CLOUD GUITAR) he had a WHITE🤍, YELLOW💛, PEACH🍑, PURPLE💜, and BLACK🖤. If you look at his earlier years PRINCE has a video for his song WHY YOU WANNA TREAT ME SO BAD? *(ANDRE CYMONE) his bass players guitar is the earliest version of the famously fashion CLOUD ☁️ GUITAR🎸 🤓👌🏽
Very interesting Henri, I'm going to check that out. I really love reading your comments and I appreciate you taking the time to watch the videos and comment :)
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar THX'Z for acknowledging me I made a correction regarding the song that gives a glimpse of ANDRE CYMONE playing the famously known CLOUD GUITAR...the song is "WHY YOU WANNA TREAT ME SO BAD" ? 🎶 RUclips VIDEO 🤓👌🏽
It's an understatement to say Prince influenced a lot of guitarists just like he also had influences too : one of the best examples is at the 5min30sec mark of The Black Keys "Weight of love" that sounds like the end of "Why do you wanna treat me so bad?".
Steve loved prince he payed a tribute to prince after his death.... bambi is off prince 1st album in 79 ...
Actually, it was his eponymous second album, but yes, 1979. Bambi was recorded in April and May of that year.
@@johngarrett1970 Correct.. and 'For You' was actually his first album in 1978 👍
@@johngarrett1970 thanks
You missed the lead up to BAMBI which is really incredible. Starts with Michael Bland's (my favorite Prince drummer) kick drum and Prince playing guitar and he even goes into a solo BEFORE Bambi even starts. You really need to go back and watch that intro because it's an absolutely incredible way to build up to the song. THIS is the definitive version of BAMBI for me although Prince really f*$&ed up with this live arrangement as he left off the second and third verses which sucks because a FULL length performance of the song would've been bad ass! Prince's solo on this is killer and the outro guitar solo and ending is perfection! Watching this reaction video, the ending of the song still raises the hair on my neck. EVERY TIME I WATCH IT. The tone, the soloing, the effects, Michael's POWERFUL drumming all make this so incredible.
Amazing post Myles! I totally agree. I am going to do a reaction video to the intro itself :)
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar So incredible. Thanks. This entire performance from intro to ending is just incredible
Ur mission, should U choose to accept it is to go forth and let people know how accomplished a musician he is. Like he said, Real music Real musicians.
I definitely plan to on this channel for sure Carol :)
Great reaction! I think that this was my first bootleg back in 1992 on CD! Nice new intro you have too!
Thank you Chirag! Its from an original song I did for my music school advertisements many years ago....
The Schecter versions of the cloud guitars were reproductions that were sold to the public. The versions that Prince played were custom guitars built by Dave Rusan circa 1983, and were modeled after a bass design that was built by Jeff Levin, in the early 70’s. I believe that Andy Beech made a few for Prince later on, but definitely not Schecter.
Great post Ka Li, thank you for clarifying, I did find it a bit confusing the history on the guitars...
You like doing these Prince videos. That’s cool! Have you checked out the Undertaker video, with performances of Honkey Tonk Woman, Bambi etc just him, bass and drums.
Hi Davey! I did do a reaction to the Undertaker a few weeks back, it was definitely different with a darker tone to it...
Ya man great reaction! Now...ya gotta check out

I will definitely do that :)
Wow!
My thoughts exactly Graham :)
Yes...this is the era that really speaks to my soul, by then I was a diehard fan!
1990 I was clueless, (not just with Prince but with life in general) lol..... I think I only saw the light with both in 2021. lol
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar well...better late than never!😅
missed the intro ..but its prince the GOAT the legend.... the guitar explosions
I am definitely going to do a reaction/analysis of the intro soon :)
There is a video Prince doing a LED zeppelin cover I think it's called whole lotta of Love. You might like it.
I did a reaction to it, and it was sadly blocked on RUclips, I'm hoping to launch my Patreon next week and it will be there among other videos :)
This is the Prince guitar in the Smithsonian and the original cloud guitar that was in the movie Purple Rain. It went from White to Peach to blue to finally end up as a yellow guitar.
Um, no. The original Purple Rain guitar is alive and kicking and is still white. He had numerous Clouds, in different colours, however some were repainted.
@@Daveyengland A quick google will confirm what I wrote is indeed true.
@@jjjones8609 interesting that the Smithsonian has the Purple Rain cloud after it had been repainted. (The website describes the history)
Very Prince to have someone repaint an iconic guitar though! He never did care for the rules much did he?
"when they tell me to walk a straight line, I put on crooked shoes" 😂
I have to keep getting the guitars and the manufacturers straight in the videos lol
The 3rrdeyegirl version you did was only a small portion from the song after the breakdown.
It did seem incredibly short! Are you from British Columbia or do you just like to whistle?
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar Nope from the Netherlands and my nick is a play on my last name in Dutch.
This version is better than the first one you reacted. Steve is a genius guitar player I love his concert in Astoria, London.
I have that one on DVD, Tony MacAlpine is one of my all time favourites :)
It is katakana. It says "Nuu-do" (as in "Nude," the name of the tour).
I have had some exposure to hiragana, which it didn't resemble...

Man U know a lot. Ty for your lessons
Thank you so much. The real reason I started this channel last summer was that I found there was so much confusion with learning the guitar/music theory etc... on RUclips. I've posted several lessons directed at beginners just starting out to get them on the right track right away... hopefully as my channel grows I will get back to doing some more lesson videos... for now I'm enjoying the ride with these reaction videos :) Your post meant a lot to me. Thank you.
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar The video on how to split the fretboard up by using the 5th fret as it is the note below... Brilliant.
I've not got a guitar with me at the moment but when I watched it... Light bulb moment.
Actually the Japanese writing spells Princes' name and 'Minneapolis' is written also on some of his other outfits in Japanese on that tour. Thats Michael Bland on drums from Minneapolis. He's known for the Kentucky Fried Chicken hat. John Blackwell came on board around 2000.
Missy when you say KFC hat, do you mean like Buckethead (famous but odd shredding guitarist)
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar Not really sure as to how that style came to be for him, but he lots of times wore them shaped as such (KFC bucket style). Personally I believe it represented some form of tribal connection. Don't quote me.
The third eye girl was a different arrangement of the song this is a more close to the album from 1978
79 actually
I like the Montreax rock night version with third eye,the break down in the middle is like a chill break time on a full day of hard work 😁 , l💜💜💜
I will check that out!
One of my favorite clips of his playing. This "Cloud" guitar was made by David Rusan, and they would be made by him until the late 90's. After that, Schecter would start to produce them for Prince and for consumers
David Rusan deserves a lot of credit for the guitars he created.
Happy to be corrected but I believe the HS Anderson/Hohner Madcat that we all know was the major guitar throughout his career was also recreated by Dave Rusan so that Prince had a few of them. As he was always throwing them around, they'd get broken and damaged so to have a few of them meant he could be a little more cavalier!
I've seen one at Paisley Park that is definitely the one he used at Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, but I've seen a few that have toured as part of the "Prince guitars collection exhibition" and they are the Hohner replicas made under the Hohner "The Prinz" name.
I'm lucky enough to have a 1988 The Prinz before they lost the lawsuit and had to change the Fender Tele headstock design.
I see those Hohner copies passed off as Prince's own but the truth is Dave Rusan had made duplicates of his original HS Anderson one.
Lawsuit? Please tell me more
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar I'll have a go at weaving it together as accurately as I can.
Hohner made a fender-style tele in the mid-70s under a Japanese manufacturer called HS Anderson "Madcat" - a varnished maple with leopard-print pickguard. (Prince bought one at a gas station in late-70s and it became his go to guitar for his whole career)
Once Prince became famous, Hohner approached him to license the guitar with his name and he declined. So they released it as "The Prinz" instead. I think from around 1985 and the Purple Rain Superstardom era.
However the headstock was a direct copy of Fender's. So Fender sued Hohner for that and Hohner had to change the headstock design - which changed the model to "Te Prinz" (no "h") post-1988 and the lawsuit loss.
The most desirable models then are the accurate 1985 to 1988 "The Prinz" models.
As I mentioned, it was believed Prince was actually using these Hohners but in fact Dave Rusan had recreated several copies of the original HS Anderson "Madcat" for Prince to use.
Over the years he had several - one that sprayed fluid from the neck (during his very early risqué days he would simulate you know what with the guitar and spray the audience!) and, if you look at the guitar at the Superbowl or RnR Hall of Fame, you can see another with damage around the upper parts of the body where it had taken impacts from being thrown around.
Yeah, you did that the Tokyo Dome now 😄😄😄😄😄 Cool 😀😀 Of course we know Steve Vai 😀😀 I will never forget, when I first saw him playing For the love of god. Oh my dear 😀😀 New tip: 😃😃😃 Perhaps you make one day a reaction video of great girl/woman Orianthi, when she played Voodoo Child 2017 at Skyville. Rrrrrrrrrrr😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😃😃😃 Greetings Pat
Pat that is a great suggestion! She is a great player. I will definitely do that. :)
This is still a truncated clip of the whole of this performance. The full version has him soloing on his own for about 30 seconds before he starts the song and it's pretty cool.
I've recently heard that Dan, I'm thinking of doing a reaction video to the intro, what are your thoughts on that? Should I go for it?
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar It's worth doing. Maybe do Bambi from 2 or 3 times in his career under one video? We are happy to stay with you for as long as you want to talk Prince!
@@thesolitaryadventurer Yessir! Will email you tomorrow about what we discussed :)
Not John Blackwell at that time. Was probably Michael B.
Yes for sure, now I know timeline - wise it was before Blackwell's time...
I will put it this way, Steve vai might not have the Swag that prince has on stage with the guitar but Mr Vai is right there next to prince in guitar prowess!!!!! just not sure if Mr Vai has covered other genres like Prince did. Maybe you can give me some imput on that my freind!!!
I think I mentioned that Steve Vai believes Prince covered him but there's confusion around it being Villanova Junction and Tender Surrender. Here's the clip that people reference - ruclips.net/video/T1cnrbrInPo/видео.html - because the bootleg calls it Tender Surrender. However, Prince had been playing Villanova Junction regularly in soundchecks, rehearsals, etc for a few years at least by then.
There's a clip of Steve Vai mentioning the bootleg and it makes sense because they start so similarly.
This version of Bambi is a very solid live one - shame about the early 90s video editing so you can't concentrate on the hands and fingers. His band at that time wasn't yet the start of the Michael Bland on drums / Sonny Thompson on bass / Barbarella on keys that from mid-91 to mid-95 was a killer band. One of this absolute best - perhaps the best in terms of being able to tackle anything thrown at them. You see a few leftovers from the Sign O The Times/Lovesexy era here like Levi Seacer Jr and Miko Weaver who are phenomenal musicians but are being held back by the positions they're having to play here.
Great clip, enjoyed the reaction. Don't be afraid to really geek out on any of his guitar work here. I'd love to know about scales and figures and hammer ons and all that guitar jargon! :D
Great post as always my man, I'm happy with how things are progressing but not to compare but as I see Rick Beato on his channel, I feel I have much to offer the musical community, I don't think I have found my stride yet on RUclips but I think we are on the right track, I think you gave me an idea to help take things to the next level.... :)
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar I watch the odd Beato video but I don't hang with him as he seems to like fundamentally different things from his music to me.
His musical theory knowledge is incredible and his ability to play by ear - but it doesn't bring me in to the videos. Taking what is happening from a theory point of view and then speaking that in a way that the layman can appreciate - now that'd be gold.
And a differentiator. There are plenty of straight reaction videos on here. To have a direction that the analysis comes from is unique.
I believe there was more than one provider of the cloud.prince several.a couple changed colour, one was snapped in half during a performance and was repaired and resprayed a new colour.originaly the cloud design was taken from a bass.the bass in question was modelled on an early guitar,can't remember the name,was something like a sitar but my memory gets bad sometimes.there is a video on tube showcasing his guitars.you should do a reaction on his guitars and bass that would be awesome.you could tell us what hardware he uses on them . I still don't know what pickups he uses on his madcatz honor Tele his favourite rippin guitar . Don't you think Metallica could have done a sweet version of Bambi too .Steve Vai is a beast on guitar .it would be interesting to know who Steve was most influenced by.i imagine similar great guitarist that prince liked and learned from watching them play. Nice vid yes 💜💜💜
Great post as always Sly! I'd love to do a reaction video to that video where he is showcasing his guitars! I'm going to be using Instagram more now, so follow me @yesyoucanplayguitar as I'll be posting a lot of guitar stuff, demonstrations etc... message me on Instagram when you do and say "It's Sly" :)
Prince covered Hendrix’s Villanova Junction on Tour in 1992 also after shows sounds very similar IMO possibly mistaken as Vai Cover
Did some research and he performed Tender Surrender at Paisley Park 30 Sep 2000. Can’t find any recordings online though. Who knows, it could be in that vault of his…
the story was that Steve Vai had just acquired a new bootleg Prince recording. He looked at the tracklist and saw Tender Surrender and thought it was a Prince song, just happened to have the same name as his. Then when he played it and it turned out to be a cover of Vai's song, Steve;s mind was blown that Prince covered him.
@@gabriels1869 ruclips.net/video/T1cnrbrInPo/видео.html The bootleg is labeled Tender Surrender but it's the same Villanova Junction he'd been playing since the late-80s. From what I've heard on the clips where he addresses it, Steve heard the first few bars and figured it was his song - but the reality is the starts sound the same and I think he never listened long enough to hear them diverge.
@@thesolitaryadventurer Prince really was a one man Woodstock lol, Havens Motherless Child , Santana Soul Sacrifice and Hendrix Villanova Junction all performed then.. later covered by Prince, imaging him watching it and thinking 🤔 I could do that 😳☔️☔️at 11 years old… maybe inspired him to pick the Axe 🎸 up 🤔
Steve Vai had an interesting story with his song "Bangkok" check it out sometime :)
NOPE the cloud guitar was created by dave rusan he made the purple rain cloud guitar and some other cloud but the other builder who made guitars for him after was andy beech
Are they independent or do they work for a guitar company?
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar they are independent but after some time prince ask schecter to build for him some clouds and symbol guitars because they was much quicker to build
This song it is from 1979 😁
I'm interested to hear the studio recorded version. :)
Question of U from same gig.
From the piano to the lid of the piano! 😂 Fantastic peformance. Probably the best we have of that song too...?
I found a link to the entire performance, I have it saved and will break the performance down to individual songs and do videos with them. Great suggestion :)
Prince probably wondered the same about his hair considering he was mixed with black and would find his hair wiry and needing slight perm
OMG. His parents Mattie and John would be surprised to hear that Prince was mixed since they were BOTH Black. LOL
And one day a reaction for one of the guitar gods Michael Schenker 😀😀😀😀😀😍😍😍😍😍😍

Great post Paul and I will do that, I like Dweezil's playing :)
Amazing interview - and Peggy doesn't take any shit. She says it just like she sees it.
As the years rolled on and the yes men arrived, it's refreshing for Peggy to speak now and say what she loved, hated, admired, and disrespected. It's true opinion. That interview is possibly my favourite of anyone in the Prince camp. She doesn't have an axe to grind and she witnessed the star to superstar journey.
