The Purple One and his Guitar
I swear to God I wasn't gonna blog about this. But when I saw that even indie rock blog Stereogum was raving about it ("I was really surprised how much I like this new Prince song"), I just had to post it.
This is Prince at his best: Last Saturday, he was the musical guest on Saturday Night Live, and rather than playing one of his hits, he chose to perform "Fury", a brand new song from his upcoming album 3121 (release date: March 21). And boy did he tear that guitar up! Just in case the world needed any reminding of just how amazing he is on guitar.
Rock on.
Okay, while we're at it: Here's His Purple Highness performing that breathtaking solo to "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" during the 2004 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony. Oh yes, that's the entire crowd on their feet and in awe. For the song in its entirety, click here.

I love Prince. He's quirky, but his music is fabulous and he's true to it.
