YouTube

Youtube is a great site. No doubt it's clogged with rubbish of people jumping around their bedrooms acting like idiots but there is also a wealth of fantastic stuff not least the music related stuff that people have uploaded. Sooooo many amazing clips.
I've been marvelling at Prince again recently. Pretty much a daily task. He was on Saturday Night Live last Saturday and just owned that stage with a version of a new song called 'Fury'. The song was pretty good but the performance just ruled and the backing vocalists with their synchronised dance routines looked really cool too. He's starting to look his age and he's not at the cutting edge as he once was but he's still too cool for school.
I'm not going to post that performance though, I'm going to post something else (if it works)and that's his performance on While My Guitar Gently Weeps at the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame a couple of years ago. It starts off with the same band as performed at Concert For George at the Royal Albert Hall - Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, Dhani Harrison etc and it sounds great, then there's a grin from Dhani H and the man in the hat who'd been hiding at the side comes front of stage and just takes over. This is a man who can play guitar! Looks good in a hat too...
