slow whining piss, with the evil petty but little princip comes in and owns it

love it, the strides off at the end having done his job

Yeah great clip! Last time it was posted there was a story that Tom Petty had told the camera crew not to spend much time showing Prince because "he doesn't know the song", Prince finds out what was said and totally owns Petty.

Well it didn't take much to learn. A few bars and he must have realised it's all the fucking same, and then made some improvements.

Well I assume he was already familiar with the song, despite what Tom Petty thought.

Doubtful. Why would Petty bother about who the camera showed ?
I put it in with other dubious rock lore like Frank Zappa munching a turd on stage>

Original still better

Absolute class - he was a phenomenal guitarist.
Wasn't this solo two fingers to Rolling Stone who didn't include him in a Top 100 Guitarists poll or something?

My shout is
Eloise ......The Damned
Dear Prudence .....Siouxsie and the Banshees
Step On.........Happy Mondays

I heard that Petty had slagged off Prince's guitar abilities but Laa's version makes more sense.
But I also heard he let Dhani into it which would explain the knowing smirks.

I love that, but still want to know what happened to the guitar Prince threw in the air....hopefully it hit Tom.

I absolutely love those versions, Eloise even stranger as the first time I heard it, was watching the Yong Ones I think?

The Damned are a great band, but have you ever heard the original?

It's a typical late sixties over-the-top epic by one of the Ryan brothers.
