I grew up loving P Funk (Parliament) Didnt really get into disco or KISS in the ‘70’s
Prince connected funk and rock with perfection. Truly there was no one like him.
A kindred spirit, gone way too soon. Incredible talent, amazing energy, an instrumentalist at EVERY instrument, guitar, bass, piano, percussion, voice.
truly the “Mozart” of our time.
I was in class the Thursday I heard he died and started crying. Bless my students - they asked me what was wrong. I told them “Prince died today” I said, “ for those of you who may be unfamiliar, here is what we lost today”
played video for the students “As my guitar gently weeps” buried my head in my hands.
