The influence of Prince...
Stevie Nicks wrote the above song, but she contacted prince who, in short order arranged, performed all the keyboards, sequencing, and other instrumentation, and produced her song: Quote:
In might be interesting to know, on Prince's first few albums, he not only wrote all the songs, he played all the instruments, performed all the vocals, and produced the albums himself; there used to be a very famous recording studio here in Hollywood, Gold Star Studios, known for being the site of a great, great many hits over the decades, including the Phil Spector "wall Of Sound" recording sessions for various artists (the Gold Star echo chamber, arguably the best in the industry, contributed greatly to Spector's sound); Prince, whenever he was in LA, would often book the studios for entire overnight blocks of time; Gold Star was a family owned and run business and the owner's wife would serve, at Prince's request, as the sole engineer in the studio when he was recording; she has said in interviews Prince would show up, alone, go into the studio where the instruments were set up and start to play on an instrument, while she turned on the tape machines, stop, listen to a playback, go to another instrument, record an overdub, and so on, building up a song or song idea as he went; she said the only thing she had to do was make sure there was enough tape available and run the machinery; once Prince was done with his session, he would take the tapes and be gone... <O>

Years ago, ZZ top was in town and performing a show one night. Billy Gibbons, Guitarist and vocalist for the band was unwinding after the show at a little " out of the way " bar. The waiter tapped Billy on his shoulder and said a gentleman would like you to join him at his table. The gentleman was none other than Prince. Billy accepted and they talked for hours about music and such. Billy was supposed to leave and instead stayed a day or two as they just jammed together at Prince's studio. Billy had asked Prince how he did a certain guitar Riff and Prince replied he didn't know how he did it as he said he was in the moment and just played. Billy would later say that Prince was just that. Prince helped produce a number of records from such diverse artists such as Country music singer Lee All Rimes to Sheila E and also helped create the musical group, the Bangles with Suzanna Hoffs. Prince joining an all star cast and doing a great guitar solo starting at 3:28 and on an old Telecastor on top of it. This is a great rendition of " While my guitar gently weeps. " by George Harrison. Also in the group is Dani Harrison, son of the late George Harrison. Last edited by Commander Wallace; 05-15-21 at 08:18 AM. |

Wow. You really should read Liu's The Paper menagerie (the short stories collection).. or maybe you already know it all. But for me it was a kind of revelation about China and its past.

Tks Kai, I don't really like short stories but on your recommendation I will. I prefer epics etc.
Over the years I've had 2 chinese girlfriends, and learned a lot from them. Great company, great lovers. It's a shame their whole global race is tainted by perceived association with the communist government in China. Thanks for being a good friend.
