Well ..I probably should have posted this regular chat instead of the pit. The man played 27 different instruments and started with the guitar, self taught at the age of 12 (late in life for music really) ..maybe you don't like his music but he was arguably one of the greatest musicians of his time being well versed in singing, song writing, sound production and sheer skill on a guitar..he also successfully told the big wig record label to eat a dock with his silent mutiny with the word "slave" written on his face for public appearances.
I genuinely didn't like a lot of his stuff after the 90s but the dude is a legend

Like someone said earlier: he was the only guy alive that could wear women's clothes and still steal your girl.

I'm just trolling. Don't worry, I've rustled enough jimmys on social media today. It's been quit the fun actually. No need for me to troll the pit

Totally true.

I didn't know he had been married twice and had an infant son that passed away at a week old.

The best synopsis I've seen of his music today was that it was either foreplay or prayer

Yeah...some of the stuff is still copyright blocked..
I imagine rolling Stone will put up some good stuff.

I had to go to that one crazy site to find raspberry beret.

Kiss, little red corvette, when doves cry and purple rain are all easy to find...as is a good cover he did of creep but it's very dimly lit.

There was a piece done on the superb owl halftime show that's up too..it's a pretty nice piece done by the half time show production crew.

Still can't find a good version of Let's Go Crazy on YouTube. It took page three of Google search results to find the music video version which lacks the whole organ/preaching intro. That song is still awesome.
