We lost a talented, kind, gifted and generous Prince this week.
I don't know if you found his work entertaining but you have to admit he was an innovator and totally unique.
XM Sirius Radio channel 50 is playing his stuff all weekend. Makes one realize how much he contributed to the pop/rock genre over the past 30 years.
Guess they have found some thousands of unreleased cuts nobody has heard. Combine that with all of his recorded performances, we should be able to enjoy his work for many years. It will transcend many generations I submit.
RIP Prince. You will be missed by many.

Heard a report he recorded at least 1 finished track every day that went into the vault.
Didn't realize he wrote so many songs/lyrics for other performers that were hits.
Had total control over his music,record companies listened to his demands.
One of his CDs had no little lines between tracks..he said the songs were arranged to be listened in the order they were recorded,he didn't want people to skip tracks to only listen to a few songs.
Seemed like a very creative/powerful entertainer,and not my cup of tea,but I hate to see anyone die.
