Prince covers Pearl Jam and Even Flow

Quote:

For those of you who are contextually curious, music site Dr. Funkenberry reports that the Purple One, who just released a video for "Fixurlifeup" this morning, has been rehearsing the track for his Minneapolis show this Saturday.

"This version features a guitar duel between Prince & Donna Grantis that morphs into Aretha Franklin's version of 'Rock Steady' before reprising the end vamp of 'Even Flow.'"

Redundant thread title is redundant.

He's got a Jeff Beck tone thing going there.

Not bad.

Damn! I'd love to have a straight-up guitar-centric album from Prince again. He totally shines at this kind of thing.

But MJ is inferior to Prince and why mention this in that thread.

This new tour has been just that, it's been SICK just sick with everything performed with heavy guitar type songs from the past. I've heard like 5 shows now and it just totally blows me away.

Although I do have to say I HATED his version of Even Flow, just hated it.
