    Couldn't think of two drummers less suited to be alongside each other than Ringo and Phil.

    Pity we never got one with George singing and Prince doing the solo as Clapton's work here is just so inferior to Prince's interpretation.

    But….but……he’s god isn’t he ?

    i know this is your hill to die on but

    so many of his contempories think he is an amazing player. And those guys have forgotten more about playing guitar than i have ever known.

    Well yeah but I just think it’s amazing he is rated like he is when he stopped doing cool lead guitar in the late 60s and concentrated on boring MOR stuff and stealing JJ Cales songs and making them even more dreary.

    He’s also an anti vaxxer who sues his fans but that’s beside the point.

    For all of Prince's undoubted brilliance, you needed Clapton first - everyone has their influences.

    Missed the point. Of course Claptons work on the original was good. Just that once you hear Prince's version you can't unhear it and the comparison is made.

    The clip above isn't the best version by any means.

    Prince was such genius in so many ways it boggles the mind. It wasn’t fair that he was a brilliant guitarist on top of everything else.

    @tim Whenever I'm doing a bit of an KEXP binge, that always pops up, and I always click through on it... I suspect mostly as the band-name has tempted my subconscious which is hoping for:

    By Christ Budgie may have been the ugliest band ever to come out of Wales. And that's from a country that gave us Goldie Looking Chain.

    This is by far my favourite song by Dragon.

    For some reason the old bloke shaking his head at the “bloody long haired poofters” ( I’m assuming that’s what he’s thinking, about 1.41 in the vid ) cracks me up immensely.

    The look on the old fella's face was hilarious 😁 yeah, Dragon had some excellent songs, here's a couple more I like too...

    @virgil firstly, oh great another retarded newbie to babysit through their teething stage

    Also, this, right here, is the turning point from respected hop hop group to loathed pop garbage.

    I'm sure their bank accounts don't give a flying fuck though

    I can only add that I saw Will.i.am on the tube one night dressed cool as all fuck with some hot birds hanging off him.
