Back when "records" were a thing, he went to a record store in Greensboro and bought 3.albums with a check...when "checks" were a thing...the check bounced

Can't see how Princes checks bounced, with all his millions

Undervalued, bogus tax bills, perfect storm to steal his catalog (original work, no remakes in sight)  from his heirs. Originally valued at almost $300 million.  FOH!

The real question is what would Vince do if left alone in the room together

He was definitely sexual. Purple Rain is the greatest fuck ballad of all time.

"Honey, I know! I know!" Guy deserved every supermodel he ever had for how he sang just that one line.

Great post.

It would be like saying a 1980's triathlete champion was the best swimmer. You're not going to be the best when you are spread thin getting to a high level at multiple crafts.

Also, what kind of nimrod was Prince to not procure proper/real opiate pills, with his money and connections?
I’m sure he thought he had ethical drug dealers, why would they sell Prince bad drugs?

He was an addict.  :'(

They didn't do it on purpose, but could not have tested the drugs for Fentanyl, which ethical drug dealers would do, be it by way of an official testing kit, or from personal use.

You'd think Prince would get such a diligent/responsible "drug dealer to the stars", but I guess not. Or maybe he was in a pinch, and called some secondary dealer he didn't trust as well.

Thunder Bay has them included in the Better Business Bureau.

He was massive in his younger years:




He hid that muscle mass very well & completely changed his appearance
When singing that in itself is an unrecognised talent of his.

Find ethical drug dealers on Yelp or Angie's List.

Get at least 3 quotes and call past customers for references.

It was only a matter of time before someone posted this.

*yawn*

It’s the holy grail of videos referenced by folks without much of any guitar knowledge when they’re robotically repeating the Prince-Was-The-Greatest-Guitarist-Ever (beyond) overblown horseshit.
