halftime show

Prince was an outstanding guitar player, but his bullshit turned off many people. Motown was entertainment for all. With some exceptions my musical tastes ended about mid/late 70's. I love and make music, but man I do not get what passes for music sometimes. But then my father looked at his son as if I was crazy as I played the Beatles. Each to their own, that's cool with me.

I saw Prince in about 1982. We boo'd him off stage. He was in his weird phase of just screaming stuff. That scene in Purple Rain when the club promoter says. "Your music only makes sense to yourself?" Some truth in those days. Then he and the band released Purple Rain. Which stands as an anthem type song to that 80s generation. Like Free Bird does to the 70s southern rock fans. Not many songs reach those pinnacle.
