Prince... Dead at the age of 57...

RIP.

2016 claims another legend. Shitty. He was too young.
-
Other than his songs typically played on the radio and the hot babes in his circa 1980's MTV videos, I didn't know much about the breath and depth of his music. From what I read, however, he was an extremely talented individual.
We never mentioned him during our Icon threads - maybe we did - but when ABC Radio leads their top-of-the-hour news with his death, I guess this gives him a seat at the table.

This is what it sounds like when doves cry.
I actually didn't think he was that old. I thought more like 47.

Prince was possibly one of the most underrated guitar players of all time. He could flat out play.

He absolutely shreds on this.

No party soundtrack was complete if it was missing Prince.
RIP

From what I understand he was a multi-instrumentalist, having played every instrument on an album or two

Don't have to be rich to be my girl.
Don't have to be cool to rule my world.
Seriously, everyone I grew up with is starting to die. Whats worse, I don't see the next generation of talent behind these greats.
If they're somewhere to be found, its buried a mile deep under the trash that has become mainstream music.

Bowie hurt, but at least he was older than me.

I think the total was around 24.
Penned something around a dozen MTV era "standards". Some sweet, some raw, some inventive as hell.
I about wore out "Kiss" when I bought the LP... it's simplicity just grabbed me by the ears...

Rumor has it his death was aids related

Aids does not cause sudden death like that. People that have untreated Aids go through months/years of deterioration.
If this wasn't a heart attack...or a brain aneurism or something, it was an overdose.

It wasn't sudden. He's been battling 'the flu' for weeks.
