    This is up there with Bowie for me. Huge personal influence. Such a talented musical mind. RIP.

    My favourite Prince and a guitar moment. Wait for it.

    He was the greatest guitar player ever who wasn't "a guitarist".

    Yeah Pabs always intrigued me too. One of life's little mysteries, now we'll never know.

    Geez, we seem to have lost quite a few good musicians in the last few years.

    Not ignoring the loss of a huge talent.

    They were talking about flu like symptoms I wonder if it may have been Legionairs or similar, if so its all the more tragic

    I agree, most intriguing, I wonder if it is some weird new disease that's just evolved?
