There’s a story you should know.

Once upon a time, there was a performance at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Many living immortals were there to perform. Tom Petty. Steve Winwood. Jeff Lynne.

Together, they played “While My Guitar Gently Weeps.” Despite the abundance of rock on stage, it was a sleepy, dreary performance.

All of a sudden, a little man with a red hat and gold guitar proclaimed, “I have come to save this song.”

And so he did.

The Prince show starts at 3:27.

Legend.

Update: Lisa Renee shared a video of Prince shredding live blues guitar and it’s incredible. Feel free to share your favorite live Prince performance. Let’s have a drink and listen to some tunes.
