Director's cut of Prince's solo from My Guitar Gently Weeps at Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame performance, 2004. He was an extremely skilled soloist.

Oh shit, I just watched the older upload of this just a week or two ago.Prince was not of this world, he could have easily had an alternative history career as a guitar virtuoso or jumped genres as much as Bowie or Bjork. I like a lot of his stuff and love a few of his classics but more so he's one of those figures I respect the absolute hell of even though I'm not a massive fan (and I totally understand those who are)

Also George would have loved this and Dhani clearly did.

I hadn’t seen this video for a long time, and I thought I would post it in the “sad songs” thread, but it’s not really sad sounding- especially when compared to the rest of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds’ stuff, or even Einsturzende Neubaten for that matter! 
 

After watching it again I realized it was worthy of a favorite YouTube video. The live version video from back then is good, too.

It was like watching an alien play an instrument he brought from another world. Only Reverend Horton Heat has given Prince a run for his money as a live guitarist IMO.
